Nuceiva® Treatments
Smooth, Natural, and Confident
Nuceiva® is an advanced neuromodulator designed to soften unwanted expression lines while keeping your natural look intact. Similar to Botox®, Nuceiva® works by relaxing the muscles that cause frown lines, crow’s feet, and other dynamic wrinkles. With its precise formulation, many patients find Nuceiva® offers a fresh, rejuvenated appearance—without looking “frozen.”
