THE NEWEST NEUROMODULATOR IN BATON ROUGE
Letybo
®
in Baton Rouge & Prairieville | Newest Botox Alternative
Looking for the newest FDA-approved neuromodulator — a highly purified, low-protein formula with a proven international track record and the precision of 1:1 Botox dosing? Letybo (letibotulinumtoxinA-wlbg) received FDA approval in October 2023, making it the most recently approved neuromodulator in the United States — but it has been used internationally under the name Bocouture in Europe and Asia since 2013, with over a decade of real-world safety data.
At Z Aesthetic Dermatology, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Ann Zedlitz offers expert Letybo treatments for frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crow's feet, and more. As a top 3% expert injector nationally, Dr. Z uses advanced techniques to deliver natural, precise results that keep you looking like yourself — just refreshed, relaxed, and more youthful.
Letybo is FDA-approved for the treatment of glabellar lines (the "11s" between your eyebrows). Like Xeomin, Letybo uses a highly purified, low-protein formulation that minimizes accessory protein exposure — but it is manufactured using a distinct process by Hugel Inc. with its own independent clinical data. Its 1:1 unit conversion with Botox makes it a straightforward option for experienced neuromodulator patients.

What Are The Benefits of Letybo?
Letybo® (letibotulinumtoxinA-wlbg) is the newest FDA-approved neuromodulator (approved October 2023), featuring a highly purified, low-protein formulation with over 10 years of international use as Bocouture in Europe and Asia. Dr. Z also uses Letybo off-label for forehead lines, crow's feet, brow lift, lip flip, bunny lines, and chin dimpling. Letybo uses a 1:1 unit ratio with Botox for precise, predictable dosing — and like Xeomin, its low-protein formula minimizes accessory protein exposure, which may reduce the theoretical risk of antibody formation with long-term use. Results appear within 3–5 days, last 3–4 months, and deliver natural-looking smoothness with zero downtime and minimal side effects.
Treatment Areas: What Can Letybo Treat?
Letybo is FDA-approved specifically for glabellar frown lines (the "11s") and is the newest neuromodulator in the U.S. market — bringing 10+ years of proven international use to American patients for the first time. Like other neuromodulators, Letybo is also effective for a variety of off-label cosmetic uses where precise micro-dosing is key.
Letybo for Frown Lines (11 Lines)
Letybo is FDA-approved for glabellar frown lines — the vertical "11 lines" between your eyebrows caused by repeated contraction of the corrugator and procerus muscles. As the newest FDA-approved neuromodulator in the United States, Letybo brings over a decade of international use as Bocouture to American patients for the first time. Its 1:1 unit conversion with Botox means patients switching from Botox can transition to Letybo with no dosing adjustment needed.
Learn more about 11 lines treatment and how neuromodulator treatment from Z Dermatology can smooth this common concern.
Letybo for Forehead Lines
Horizontal forehead lines form from years of frontalis muscle activity — raising your eyebrows repeatedly over time etches these lines into the skin. Letybo's precise 1:1 Botox unit dosing makes it a straightforward, predictable option for forehead line treatment. Its low-protein, highly purified formula is an added benefit for patients who treat the forehead consistently and want to minimize long-term accessory protein exposure.
Letybo for Crow's Feet
Crow's feet — the fine lines that fan outward from the outer eye corners — are one of the most commonly treated areas with neuromodulators. Letybo's highly purified, low-protein formulation and precise 1:1 Botox dosing make it well-suited for the delicate periorbital area, where consistent, predictable dosing matters. Patients who have been treating crow's feet with Botox long-term may find Letybo's reduced protein profile appealing for ongoing maintenance.

Letybo Brow Lift
Letybo's precise 1:1 unit dosing with Botox makes it an excellent choice for the non-surgical brow lift technique, where accurate micro-dosing of the depressor muscles is critical to achieving the desired elevation without over-relaxing surrounding muscles. Strategic placement relaxes the muscles pulling the brow downward, allowing the frontalis to lift the brow tail naturally and open the eye area for a refreshed appearance.
Letybo Lip Flip for a Gummy Smile
Letybo's predictable 1:1 Botox dosing and low-protein formulation make it a reliable choice for the lip flip, where precise micro-dosing along the upper lip border is essential. A small amount of Letybo relaxes the orbicularis oris muscle to gently evert the upper lip, creating a fuller, more defined appearance without volume. The low-protein formula is particularly suited to delicate perioral placements where precision matters most.

Letybo for Bunny Lines
The diagonal wrinkles across the bridge of the nose when you scrunch your face or laugh are caused by the nasalis muscle and respond well to precise, low-dose neuromodulator treatment. Letybo's accurate 1:1 Botox dosing and purified formula are well-suited for small, precise treatment areas like bunny lines, where only a few units are needed and consistent results matter. A popular add-on alongside forehead and frown line treatments.
Letybo for Chin Dimpling
The "orange peel" texture that appears on the chin from overactive mentalis muscle activity is effectively smoothed with precise neuromodulator treatment. Letybo's predictable 1:1 Botox unit conversion makes it a reliable choice for the mentalis — a small muscle where accurate low-dose placement produces the best results. Its low-protein formulation is well-suited for patients who regularly treat smaller refinement areas and want to minimize cumulative protein exposure over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Letybo?
Letybo is ideal for patients who want the latest FDA-approved neuromodulator innovation combined with the peace of mind of a decade of international clinical use. Its low-protein, highly purified formulation makes it an excellent choice for patients concerned about accessory protein exposure with long-term use — offering a similar protein-reduction benefit to Xeomin, but from a different manufacturer with independent clinical data. Letybo's 1:1 Botox unit dosing makes it easy to switch from Botox without any dosing adjustment. Good candidates are in overall good health with realistic expectations about natural-looking results that last 3–4 months before maintenance treatments are needed. Letybo is not suitable for individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neuromuscular disorders. During your consultation, Dr. Z will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend whether Letybo or another neuromodulator is the best fit for your needs.
How Long Does Letybo
Last?
Letybo lasts approximately 3–4 months, consistent with the standard duration of other botulinum toxin type A neuromodulators including Botox, Xeomin, and Jeuveau. Because Letybo uses 1:1 unit dosing with Botox, patients switching from Botox typically experience a very similar duration with no adjustment period needed. Duration varies from person to person based on metabolism, muscle activity, dosage, and lifestyle factors (e.g., exercise, sun exposure). The only way to know how long Letybo lasts for you is to try it and see — but you can generally expect 3–4 months of smooth, wrinkle-free results. Patients interested in the longest possible duration between treatments should ask Dr. Z about Daxxify, which lasts 6–9 months.
How Much Does Letybo Cost in Baton Rouge?
Letybo at Z Aesthetic Dermatology is priced per unit using 1:1 Botox dosing — meaning patients switching from Botox can expect a comparable overall investment with no unit conversion required. Your total cost depends on your treatment areas and the dosage Dr. Z recommends based on your individual facial anatomy and goals, which she will outline with full transparency at your consultation before any treatment begins. Financing options are available through CareCredit and PatientFi to make Letybo's newest FDA-approved formula accessible on your terms.

What is Letybo®?
Letybo (letibotulinumtoxinA-wlbg) is the newest botulinum toxin type A neuromodulator to receive FDA approval in the United States (October 2023), developed by Hugel Inc. and known internationally as Bocouture since 2013. Letybo features a highly purified, low-protein formulation that minimizes accessory protein content — similar in principle to Xeomin but produced by a separate manufacturer with independent clinical data. It uses 1:1 unit dosing with Botox for predictable, straightforward dosing, and its 10+ years of international use provide a robust real-world safety record that goes well beyond its recent U.S. approval date.

How Letybo
Works
Letybo (letibotulinumtoxinA-wlbg) is a botulinum toxin type A neuromodulator developed by Hugel Inc. (South Korea) and FDA-approved in October 2023 — the most recently approved neuromodulator in the United States. While it is new to the American market, Letybo has been available internationally as Bocouture since 2013, providing over a decade of real-world safety and efficacy data from European and Asian markets.
Like all neuromodulators, Letybo works by temporarily blocking acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction, preventing targeted facial muscles from contracting and smoothing the dynamic wrinkles they create.
What makes Letybo distinct is its formulation. Letybo uses a highly purified, low-protein manufacturing process that results in a neuromodulator with minimal accessory protein content — similar in concept to Xeomin, but produced by an entirely different company using a different manufacturing method.
Key characteristics:
Low-protein formulation: Minimizes accessory protein exposure, potentially reducing the theoretical risk of antibody-mediated resistance with long-term use.
1:1 Botox unit dosing: Uses the same unit ratio as Botox, making switching straightforward and dosing predictable.
Proven international track record: Over 10 years of use as Bocouture in Europe and Asia with an established safety record independent of U.S. clinical trials.
Onset: Results appear within 3–5 days, with full effects at 10–14 days.
Duration: Results last 3–4 months, comparable to all standard neuromodulators.
What does this mean for you?
Latest U.S. approval: If you want the most recently approved neuromodulator with fresh independent clinical data, Letybo is your choice.
Reduced protein exposure: Like Xeomin, Letybo offers a cleaner protein profile — but from an entirely different manufacturer.
Easy switching: 1:1 Botox unit dosing means switching from Botox requires no dose recalculation.
Letybo brings proven global innovation to Z Aesthetic Dermatology patients — offering a trusted alternative for those seeking the latest FDA-approved option with independent clinical validation.
What Is The Letybo Treatment Process?
One of the most appreciated aspects of Letybo treatment at Z Aesthetic Dermatology is the confidence of choosing a neuromodulator that is both cutting-edge in the U.S. market and backed by over a decade of international clinical use. The entire process — from consultation to walking out the door — is designed around your comfort, your schedule, and your desire for natural-looking results with a proven, carefully formulated product. Dr. Z has spent over 15 years perfecting her injection technique, and every Letybo appointment reflects that commitment to precision, personalization, and care.
During your treatment, Dr. Z will inject Letybo using an ultra-fine needle with expert precision developed through thousands of procedures. Because Letybo uses 1:1 unit dosing with Botox, patients switching from Botox receive the same number of units they are used to — with no adjustment needed. Topical numbing cream is available to minimize any discomfort, though most patients describe the injections as a quick pinch. The entire appointment takes just 10–15 minutes, and bruising is uncommon. Results begin appearing within 3–5 days, with full effects visible by 10–14 days. Your natural-looking results will last 3–4 months before maintenance is needed. You can return to work immediately after treatment, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours.

Client Testimonials
Letybo vs. Botox vs. Xeomin vs. Daxxify — Which Neuromodulator Is Right for You?
All of our most popular neuromodulators in Baton Rouge — Letybo, Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, Daxxify, and Jeuveau — are formulations of botulinum toxin type A, but each has a distinct clinical profile. Letybo is the newest FDA-approved neuromodulator (October 2023), featuring a low-protein, highly purified formula with 10+ years of proven international use as Bocouture and 1:1 Botox unit dosing. Xeomin shares a similar protein-reduction philosophy but is manufactured by a different company (Merz Pharma) with its own independent clinical data. Botox is the gold standard with the broadest FDA-approved cosmetic indications and the most extensive safety data. Dysport onsets faster and diffuses more broadly for large areas. Daxxify lasts 6–9 months with peptide technology. Jeuveau is a cost-competitive cosmetic-only option.
Not sure which neuromodulator is right for you? Consider the following:
- If you want the newest FDA-approved formulation with proven global data, Letybo is your most current choice.
- If you prefer a protein-reduced formula and want a second manufacturer option beyond Xeomin, Letybo provides independent validation of the same principle.
- If you want the longest-lasting results available, Daxxify is your best option.
- If you are new to neuromodulators and want to start with the most studied option, Botox or Dysport are reliable entry points.
- The most accurate recommendation comes from a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Z, who will evaluate your anatomy, treatment history, and goals to guide you toward the best choice.
Letybo Aftercare Tips
Taking the best care of your skin after Letybo will prolong your results and help prevent future signs of aging.
After receiving Letybo injections, you don’t have to worry about a lengthy recovery. You can return to your daily routine right after. Some patients may experience a slight tingling sensation in the injection area. This feeling subsides within a few hours.
For optimal results, avoid touching or massaging the treatment area. Doing so may cause the toxin to migrate to other regions of the face. We also recommend you refrain from wearing makeup for 24 hours after your Letybo
appointment. This gives your face time to adjust to the treatment and minimizes the chances of infections. Our skin experts will tell you more about Letybo
aftercare during your visit.
Letybo Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Letybo last?
Letybo results typically last 3-4 months, similar to Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin. Duration varies based on factors including your metabolism, muscle strength, treatment area, and dosage. First-time patients may experience slightly shorter duration (2-3 months), while regular users often see results lasting 4-5 months as facial muscles become "trained" to stay relaxed.Is Letybo the same as Botox?
No, but they're very similar. Both Letybo and Botox contain botulinum toxin type A and work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles to smooth wrinkles. The main differences are: • Letybo is newer to the US (FDA approved 2023 vs Botox's 2002 approval) • Letybo has a lower protein load (highly purified formula) • Letybo converts 1:1 with Botox units (identical dosing) • Both deliver comparable results in the same timeframe Most patients cannot tell the difference in results between Letybo and Botox.Does Letybo hurt?
Letybo injections feel like a quick pinch or tiny mosquito bite. The needles are extremely fine, and the entire procedure takes just 5-10 minutes. Most patients describe minimal discomfort. If you're concerned, Dr. Z can apply ice to numb the treatment area before injecting.When will I see Letybo results?
You'll begin noticing smoother skin within 3-5 days after treatment. Full results develop over 10-14 days as Letybo fully relaxes the targeted muscles. Some patients see improvement as early as day 2-3, while others take the full two weeks.Can I combine Letybo with dermal fillers?
Absolutely! Letybo and dermal fillers work beautifully together. Letybo relaxes muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles (lines caused by movement), while fillers restore volume to address static wrinkles and enhance facial contours. Many patients achieve the best results by combining both treatments in the same appointment. Learn more about our dermal filler options.What's the difference between Letybo and Jeuveau?
While both are distributed by Evolus in the US, they are different products: • Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA) is manufactured by Evolus • Letybo (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is manufactured by Croma Pharma and distributed by Evolus • Both contain similar active ingredients with slightly different formulations • Letybo has a longer international track record (used in Europe since 2013 as Bocouture) Results and safety profiles are comparable.How much does Letybo cost compared to Botox?
At Z Dermatology, Letybo and Botox are priced similarly per unit. Since Letybo converts 1:1 with Botox units, the total treatment cost is virtually the same.Is Letybo better than Botox?
Neither is definitively "better"—they're equivalent options. The best choice depends on: • Your treatment history and preferences • Product availability • Current pricing and promotions • Your injector's recommendation Dr. Z can help you decide which neuromodulator makes the most sense for your goals. Many patients find the results virtually identical and choose based on cost or availability.Can Letybo prevent wrinkles?
Yes! Preventative Letybo works by limiting repetitive muscle movements that cause wrinkles over time. By starting Letybo treatments before deep wrinkles form, you can slow or prevent their development. Many dermatologists, including Dr. Z, recommend preventative neuromodulator treatments starting in your late 20s or early 30s.Will Letybo make me look frozen?
Not when administered correctly by an expert injector like Dr. Z. The "frozen" look happens when too much product is injected or when it's placed incorrectly. Dr. Z uses precise dosing and strategic placement to preserve natural movement and expression while smoothing unwanted wrinkles. You'll still smile, laugh, and show emotion—just with smoother skin.How many units of Letybo do I need?
Letybo dosing depends on your treatment area and muscle strength: • Frown lines (11 lines): 20-30 units • Forehead lines: 10-20 units • Crow's feet (both sides): 12-24 units • Full face (all three areas): 40-60 units Men typically need more units than women due to stronger facial muscles. During your consultation, Dr. Z will assess your facial anatomy and recommend the precise dosage for optimal results.Is there any downtime after Letybo?
No! Letybo is a "lunchtime procedure" with zero downtime. You can return to work, errands, and most activities immediately. Minor redness or tiny bumps at injection sites typically resolve within an hour. Bruising is uncommon but may take 3-7 days to fade if it occurs. Most patients schedule Letybo during their lunch break and return to their day with no one noticing.
