How Do Botulinum Toxin Type A Injections Like Dysport® and Jeuveau® Work?
Before exploring Dysport® and Jeuveau®, it’s important to understand what botulinum toxin type A injections are and how they work. Botulinum toxin type A is the active ingredient in both Dysport® and Jeuveau®. Small doses of Dysport® and Jeuveau® have the ability to temporarily relax muscles for cosmetic effect. Dysport® and Jeuveau® are injected into the underlying muscles of the affected area to address wrinkles that are linked to facial expressions. The lack of muscle contraction prevents the formation of wrinkles on the face.
Dysport® and Jeuveau® provide smoother skin for three to four months on average. You can use Dysport® or Jeuveau® to address similar concerns but there are subtle differences between them. Their dosage and the results they offer are slightly different. Here’s what you should know about Jeuveau® and Dysport®.
What is Jeuveau®?
Radiance Skin Therapy & Laser Center was one of the first clinics to use Jeuveau® (or Newtox) in Madison, WI. This was the latest neurotoxin FDA-approved for relaxing frown lines. Pronounced Ju vo, the word comes from the French word “nouveau,” which means “new” or “modern.” Evolus, the manufacturer, launched the injectable in May of 2019 and has trended as the #NEWTOX on social media. Newtox has undergone five clinical trials and was studied in more than 2,100 patients prior to launching.
What is Dysport®?
Dysport® is a fast-acting, long-lasting treatment that was FDA approved in June 2017. Dysport® is used much like BOTOX® Cosmetic and Jeuveau® to help relax overactive muscles that cause lines and wrinkles. Since Dysport® is just one of three neurotoxins we use, we are truly able to individualize your treatment. Just one, ten to twenty minute treatment is needed to get visible results. Patients will typically see noticeable results from Dysport® within as little as twenty-four hours but they usually show within two to three days. This injectable is slightly less potent than BOTOX® because of its molecular weight. As it has a higher rate of diffusion, Dysport® can be ideal for treating larger areas such as foreheads. However, more of the product will be needed to get the same results. This treatment is not as suitable for small areas, or those with an allergy to lactose or cow’s milk protein.
Who is the Ideal Dysport® and Jeuveau® Candidate?
Dysport® and Jeuveau® have many benefits. Both are minimally invasive with little to no downtime. For candidates who are looking for safe, effective, and temporary solution for age-related skin changes, Dysport® and Jeuveau® can be ideal. Neither Dysport® or Jeuveau® is recommended for people under the age of eighteen, women who are pregnant, people who have certain chronic medical conditions, or those who have an allergy to the components of Dysport® or Jeuveau®.
What is the Average Recovery Associated with Dysport® and Jeuveau®?
There is a simple, outpatient procedure for both of these injections. We do not need to apply any anesthetic for most patients. Injections are made in predetermined areas. There are few side effects associated with Dysport® and Jeuveau®. In most cases, these side effects are mild and last no more than twenty-four hours. Patients may experience minimal smelling, discomfort, and redness. The majority of individuals resume activities directly following the treatment. In most cases, the side effects resolve right after the injections. The results of both of these injectables are temporary and maintenance treatments will be needed every three to four months. Moving the treated area is fine and will not affect your treatment but you should not massage, rub, or do aerobic exercise right after your session. You can resume normal activities.
Do You Have Questions About Dysport® and Jeuveau®?
At Radiance Skin Therapy & Laser Center, we offer three incredible neurotoxins such as Dysport® and Jeuveau® that are safe, effective, and approved for cosmetic use in areas such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and upper forehead wrinkles—but they are also safely and effectively used in other areas. We love to use Dysport® and Jeuveau® for areas such as:
- Necklace lines across the neck and the platysmal bands (neck cords); this helps elongate the neck and smooth out the appearance of lines in the neck
- Our strongest muscle, the masseter muscle, in the jaw for relief of teeth clenching and grinding or creating a thinner jawline
- Fine lines around the lips caused by pursing
- Along the border of the upper lip to flip up the lip, offering a subtle plump appearance without filling
- Gummy smiles
- Lower face to help chin dimpling and DAO muscles for turning up the corners of your mouth

Are There Any Alternatives or Options That Pair Well with Dysport® and Jeuveau®?
Jeuveau™ and Dysport® are both neuromodulators or botulinum toxin type A injections that relax certain overworked muscles to soften wrinkles or address other cosmetic concerns. While these treatments are highly effective, Jeuveau™ and Dysport® are far from your only options for facial rejuvenation.
If you’re thinking about trying Jeuveau™ or Dysport®, there are other options available for enhancing your skin such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, microneedling, IPL, and laser skin resurfacing. These treatments reduce wrinkles but also have a variety of other benefits, such as treating other skin concerns that you cannot address with Jeuveau™ and Dysport® on their own, including uneven skin tone, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. Dermal fillers, such as the JUVEDERM® collection address different types of wrinkles to the ones that are corrected with Jeuveau™ and Dysport®. Rather than relaxing muscles, fillers add volume and fullness to minimize static wrinkles, or improve the contours and balance of the face.
