So You’re Thinking About a Wrinkle Relaxer—Now What?
Maybe it’s the fine lines around your eyes. Maybe it’s that little crease that’s deepened between your brows. Or maybe you just want to look a little more rested when you glance in the mirror. Either way, you’ve probably heard of Botox. And if you’ve done a little research (or spent five minutes on social media), you’ve likely come across Jeuveau, too.
So… which one should you choose?
At My Wellness Studio in Leesburg, FL this is one of the most common questions we hear. And honestly? It’s a great one. Because while Jeuveau and Botox are very similar, there are a few important differences to keep in mind before you schedule your appointment.
Let’s break it all down—casually, clearly, and without a bunch of industry jargon.
First Things First: What Are Botox and Jeuveau?
Both Botox and Jeuveau are FDA-approved neuromodulators. That means they work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles to soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive movement—think squinting, frowning, or raising your brows.
They’re part of the same “wrinkle relaxer” family and both use the same active ingredient: botulinum toxin type A. When injected strategically, they smooth out dynamic wrinkles while preserving natural facial movement.
The result? You still look like you—just a little less tense, a little more polished, and definitely more refreshed.
So… What’s the Difference?
Here’s where things get interesting. Jeuveau and Botox may act the same, but they’re made by different companies and manufactured using slightly different processes.
Let’s break it down in a way that actually makes sense:
💉 Botox
- Manufactured by Allergan, the OG of neuromodulators
- Approved by the FDA for both cosmetic and medical uses (think migraines and muscle spasms)
- Has been around for over 20 years and is the most well-known brand
- Used for a wide range of concerns, both aesthetic and functional
✨ Jeuveau
- Manufactured by Evolus, a newer company focused solely on aesthetics
- Nicknamed “#Newtox” when it launched in 2019
- Only approved for cosmetic use—specifically for glabellar lines (the “11s” between your brows)
- Marketed as a sleek, beauty-forward alternative to Botox
Think of it like this: Botox is the seasoned classic, while Jeuveau is the newer, style-savvy sibling who only does beauty. Both are effective. The best choice depends on your goals, preferences, and sometimes… your body’s response.
Do They Work the Same?
Yes—for most people, the experience and results are nearly identical.
Both Botox and Jeuveau:
- Start working in 3 to 5 days
- Reach full effect in about 10 to 14 days
- Last 3 to 4 months on average
- Are administered through a quick, in-office injection
- Require no downtime
However, some clients report that Jeuveau kicks in slightly faster or lasts a little longer. Others feel like Botox gives a more consistent result. Honestly? It varies. Every face is different. And that’s why at My Wellness Studio, we sometimes recommend starting with one and adjusting based on your response.
What About Price?
This is the million-dollar question—though thankfully, neither option costs that much.
At most clinics (including ours), Jeuveau is typically priced a bit lower per unit than Botox. Because Jeuveau is newer and aimed at the beauty market, the company offers frequent promotions and loyalty perks, which can make it a more budget-friendly choice, especially for first-timers.
That said, keep in mind:
- Botox has a larger range of FDA-approved treatment areas
- If you’ve been using Botox for years, you may prefer to stick with what works
- The difference in cost isn’t always dramatic—what matters more is who’s injecting it
What Do Leesburg, FL Clients Prefer?
Honestly? It’s a mix.
Some of our clients are longtime Botox fans who know exactly how many units they need and how often they like to come in. Others are Jeuveau loyalists who love the fresh branding, frequent discounts, and fast-acting results. And plenty of people switch between the two depending on what’s available or how their skin is behaving.
Here’s what we’ve seen at My Wellness Studio:
- Younger clients often start with Jeuveau, especially for their first treatment
- Clients treating areas beyond the brows (like jaw tension or lip flips) tend to lean toward Botox, since it’s FDA-approved for more uses
- People who’ve used both usually say they’d be happy with either—because the results are that similar
In short? Both options work. What matters is your injector’s experience, your facial anatomy, and your comfort level.
Which One Should You Choose?
Here’s how we guide the decision at your consultation:
- First-timer? Jeuveau might be a great intro—especially if you’re targeting just the 11s.
- Using Botox and happy with it? No reason to switch unless you’re curious or budget-conscious.
- Looking for treatment in multiple areas (crow’s feet, jawline, chin dimpling)? Botox might offer more flexibility.
- Curious about both? We can start with one and switch later. It’s not a lifelong commitment.
We always assess your muscle strength, expression patterns, and overall facial goals to recommend what makes sense—not just what’s trendy.
