Jeuveau™ Treatments at OC Dermatology
What is Jeuveau™?
Jeuveau (pronounced “Ja-vo”, rhymes with “hello”) is an FDA-approved botulinumtoxin. A product that is almost identical to Botox. Dr. Klein is one of the first physicians in the US to use Jeuveau. Both products use the same dosing and produce the same results but a European study showed Jeuveau to be 4-8% more potent than Botox, which equates to longer duration in some patients. Jeuveau has the same molecular weight as Botox but is manufactured with newer technology which may account for its longer duration.
When used appropriately, these products are the safest and most effective treatments for relaxation of facial lines and wrinkles. When injected into certain facial muscles they relax these muscles, thus smoothing out the wrinkles. This relaxation typically lasts 3-6 months. Dr. Klein believes in customizing each patient’s treatment. Your treatment will be individually designed specifically for you.
National Botox Trainer and Jeuveau Consultant
Dr. Klein is a National Botox Trainer for Allergan and a consultant for Evolus, the makers of Jeuveau. She has been ranked the top Botox injector among all dermatologists and plastic surgeons in Orange and San Diego Counties and is both a Black Diamond level aesthetic partner with Allergan and has been ranked one the top 50 physicians in the U.S. using Botox, Juvederm, Voluma and Latisse.
Since 1997, Dr. Klein and her staff have used over 2 million units of these products.
How Much Does Jeuveau™ Cost?
Fees are based on the amount of product used and are customized for each patient. This is determined by the location of the wrinkles, strength of the muscles, and your previous results with Botox. We will always inform you of the fees before beginning any treatment and can adjust treatments based on your preferences.

Side Effects
There is a relatively low incidence of side effects with all toxins, all of which are temporary. These include:
- Lid Ptosis (drooping of the eyelid.) The incidence of this, although 1-3% in studies, has been less than 1 per 1,000 treatments in our office. If it occurs, it typically resolves by 4-8 weeks.
- Brow Ptosis (lowering of the eyebrow.) This can occasionally occur after forehead treatments in patients who normally have low-set brows and unknowingly use their forehead muscles to hold up their brows. If this has ever occurred, let us know and we can customize your treatment so that it can be avoided in the future.
- Bruising can occasionally occur at an injection site.
- A headache can rarely occur, usually due to a muscle spasm from the injection, not the product. It may last for 2-3 hours, rarely for several days. Tylenol or Advil can be taken after your treatment if this occurs.
Post-treatment Instructions
- Avoid rubbing the area for 4 hours after your treatment.
- Results may “kick-in” sooner if you move your facial muscles within an hour after your treatment. We recommend 50 of each expression right after you leave the office. We can show you how to do this.
- Results appear between 2-7 days after treatment, . Until we know your “perfect” dose, more may be needed for optimal results. Wait 1 week before returning for a touch-up.
