Xeomin®

Xeomin®

Xeomin® is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), forehead lines, and crow’s feet in adults.

What Sets Xeomin® Apart?

Xeomin® is uniquely formulated as a “naked injectable,” containing only botulinum toxin type A without any added proteins. This pure formulation may reduce the risk of developing antibodies that can affect treatment effectiveness over time. Xeomin® has been trusted by medical professionals worldwide for over a decade, with FDA approval since 2011.

How Does It Work?

Xeomin® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that tell your facial muscles to contract. When these specific muscles can’t tighten as forcefully, the lines and wrinkles that form from repeated expressions begin to soften and smooth. The purified formulation targets only the muscles responsible for your expression lines, allowing natural facial movement while creating a refreshed, youthful appearance.

The Benefits of Xeomin®

Xeomin® offers distinct advantages for those seeking facial rejuvenation:

What to Expect Before Treatment

Your journey with Xeomin® begins with a consultation where we’ll discuss your aesthetic goals and medical history. We’ll examine the areas you’d like to address and create a personalized treatment plan. To help prevent bruising, we recommend avoiding blood-thinning medications, supplements like fish oil and vitamin E, and alcohol for a few days before your appointment. If you have any concerns about allergies or previous reactions to injectable treatments, please share these during your consultation.

What to Expect During Treatment

On treatment day, we’ll cleanse your skin and may apply a topical numbing cream for added comfort. Using an ultra-fine needle, we’ll make precise injections into the targeted facial muscles. You may feel a slight pinch during each injection, but most patients find the treatment quite tolerable. The entire process usually takes 10 to 20 minutes, making it easy to fit into your busy schedule.

Is Xeomin® Right for You?

Xeomin® is ideal for adults who want to reduce moderate to severe frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet without surgery. You may be an excellent candidate if you’re looking for natural-looking results that don’t freeze your expressions, prefer a pure formulation without added proteins, or have previously used other neuromodulators and are seeking an alternative.

However, Xeomin® may not be suitable if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have a skin infection at the injection site, are allergic to botulinum toxin products, or have certain neuromuscular conditions. During your consultation, we’ll review your complete medical history to ensure Xeomin® is the right choice for your needs.

When Will I See Results?

While individual experiences vary, most patients begin noticing improvements within three to four days after treatment. The full effects of Xeomin® typically become visible within one to two weeks. Results generally last between three to six months, though some patients enjoy even longer-lasting benefits. Regular maintenance treatments help you maintain your refreshed appearance over time.
