Evolus Raises 2028 Revenue Targets as Toxin Market Stabilizes, Evolysse Gains Traction

Aesthetics company sees signs of improvement in botulinum toxin market and slower recovery for dermal fillers

Mar. 18, 2026 at 9:08am

Evolus (NASDAQ:EOLS) executives reported signs of stabilization and improvement in the U.S. botulinum toxin market after a period of industry-wide pressure, while describing a slower recovery for dermal fillers. The company outlined longer-term financial targets and recent commercial initiatives tied to its growing injectable portfolio, including the launch of its Evolysse line of hyaluronic acid fillers.

Why it matters

The aesthetics market has faced challenges in recent years, with the botulinum toxin category experiencing only a few periods of negative growth in the past 25 years. Evolus' outlook on the market stabilization and its growing injectable portfolio, including the Evolysse filler line, provide insights into the dynamics and recovery trends in this competitive industry.

The details

Evolus CEO David Moatazedi said the company is seeing improvement in the toxin market beginning in Q4 2025 and continuing into Q1 2026, with an expectation of low-single-digit market growth this year and a potential return to mid-single-digit growth by 2027-2028. The filler market has been slower to recover, which Moatazedi attributed to negative sentiment around 'overfilled' faces and a consumer preference for more natural-looking outcomes. To address this, Evolus launched its 'Drop the F Word' campaign to encourage clinics to avoid the term 'filler' in favor of 'injectable HA.' The company also highlighted the technology behind its Evolysse HA fillers, which are manufactured at near-freezing temperatures to preserve the natural HA structure.

  • Evolus expects approval of its Evolysse Sculpt filler later this year.
  • The company plans to launch additional filler products, including 'eyes next year' and 'lips' thereafter.
