Neurotoxin Injections

Hello, Nuceiva™

Trucare Aesthetic Winnipeg

Now that you have been prescribed Nuceiva by your doctor, here is some important information you should know before your treatment. Nuceiva™ is indicated for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines (known as glabellar lines) in adult atients <65 years of age.

Do not receive Nuceiva™ if you are allergic or sensitive to any of the ingredients, you have an infection in the muscles where it would be injected, or you have any muscle disorders in other parts of your body.

How does Nuceiva™ work?

Nuceiva™ is a drug that temporarily reduces movement of muscles that cause wrinkles. Some patients see results as soon as two days after injection.

What is a Glabellar Line?

Glabellar lines, also known as frown lines, are vertical lines on the forehead, and are moderate to severe when they become visible. Glabellar lines form as the corrugator and/or procerus muscles in the face are active.

Nuceiva™ can only be used by health care professionals experienced in the injection of botulinum toxin.

Dosage: The optimum dosage and number of injection sites in the treated muscle will be chosen by your doctor.
