What is Nuceiva®?

Nuceiva® is a botulinum toxin type A injectable neuromodulator, designed to temporarily relax facial muscles and smooth dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive expressions. Approved by Health Canada, Nuceiva® is primarily used to treat frown lines (glabellar lines) between the eyebrows, but it can also be used to reduce forehead lines and crow’s feet.

Similar in function to other well-known neuromodulators, Nuceiva® works by blocking the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions, allowing the overlying skin to relax and appear smoother. Its high purity and refined formulation make it effective and fast-acting, with visible results often appearing within just a few days after treatment.

Nuceiva® is ideal for individuals seeking a non-surgical, minimally invasive solution to reduce the visible signs of aging while maintaining a natural and expressive look. Treatments are quick—usually 10 to 20 minutes—and require little to no downtime.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, we use Nuceiva® to provide personalized, precise facial rejuvenation, helping patients achieve refreshed, youthful results with confidence and care.

  • Smooths Dynamic Wrinkles
    Nuceiva® effectively softens expression lines such as frown lines (glabellar lines), forehead creases, and crow’s feet by relaxing the underlying facial muscles.

    Patients often begin to see visible improvements within 2 to 3 days, with full results typically developing within 7 to 14 days.
  • Natural-Looking Appearance

What Conditions Can Nuceiva® Address?

Nuceiva® is a specialized neuromodulator treatment designed to target and reduce the appearance of dynamic facial wrinkles—those caused by repetitive muscle movement. At Rejuvenation Dermatology, Nuceiva® is used to effectively address the following conditions:

  • Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)
    Vertical lines between the eyebrows that appear when frowning or concentrating. Nuceiva® relaxes these muscles to smooth the area and prevent deepening of the lines.
  • Forehead Lines
    Horizontal lines across the forehead caused by raising the eyebrows. Treatment with Nuceiva® softens these creases, creating a more relaxed and youthful appearance.
  • Crow’s Feet
    Fine lines that form around the outer corners of the eyes when smiling or squinting. Nuceiva® reduces their visibility while maintaining natural expression.
  • Bunny Lines
    Small wrinkles that form on the bridge of the nose when scrunching the face. These can also be minimized with targeted Nuceiva® injections.

Preventative Aging
Younger patients are increasingly using Nuceiva® to prevent the formation of static wrinkles by minimizing muscle movement early.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, we provide customized Nuceiva® treatments to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin while maintaining facial harmony and natural movement.
