Krueger Aesthetics is known for injectable cosmetic treatments. Dr. Ronald A. Krueger has pioneered introducing treatments like Botox® to the Mukilteo, Washington, area. Dr. Krueger, Phyllis Pollock, and Shana McKenzie collectively offer 60 years of aesthetic experience to tailor each patient’s treatment plan. So, when we say Jeuveau® (the “Newtox” on the block) may be better for you than Botox®, we know what we are talking about! We are delighted to highlight some key characteristics of this age-defying powerhouse. It could also be suitable for your lips as an alternative to the Botox® “lip flip”.
As with other “neuromodulators” (like Botox®), Jeuveau® is indicated to soften the expression or “worry lines” on the forehead and between the eyebrows. But it can also do so much more than that when it is in the hands of our skilled and experienced injectors and clinicians. Instead of injecting the filler into precise points of the eyebrow region and forehead, the Jeuveau®-powered “lip flip” targets the upper lip muscles. When applied safely and precisely, Jeuveau® relaxes the muscles. This process produces the appearance of a fuller upper lip.
Lip flips are an attractive alternative for many of our patients who are seeking natural-looking results. Lip augmentation is associated with fillers. However, you are not “filling in” anything by using neuromodulators to enhance the lips. You are creating a fuller look without actually volumizing the pout. When too much or too thick of a filler is used, the result may look overly dramatic and overwhelm the appearance of your face. Patients who are worried about the outcomes from fillers for lips can avoid this concern entirely with procedures that get results by affecting targeted muscles, not “filling in” tissues.
You may be a good candidate for the Jeuveau®-assisted lip flip if hyperactivity associated with the muscle around your mouth causes the upper lip to turn inward or to pull upward considerably. By weakening the specific hyperactive muscle responsible for this turned-in and smaller upper lip, more of your pout is visible when you smile. As a central feature, smile improvements can dramatically enhance your face and appearance.
Jeuveau’s unique manufacturing technology supports a quicker “onset of action” than Botox®. Since Jeuveau® is engineered differently; it also promotes slightly longer results than Botox®. Like all injectable treatments, results are temporary. Three or four annual maintenance treatment sessions may be advised to keep your perfect pout. Of course, Jeuveau® can also be applied to improve the appearance of lines around the mouth and other areas.
No matter the concern, Krueger Aesthetics has the expertise to address it effectively!
