Xeomin
Xeomin® is a Botox alternative designed for fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. Xeomin® is sometimes referred to as “naked Botox” because it is made from a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. By purifying this formula and removing accessory proteins without an active role in the treatment, patients can expect the same great results after each treatment. The risk of allergic reactions is also lower because of this purification. Botulinum toxin temporarily paralyzes the facial muscles to prevent contraction and the resulting development of facial wrinkles.
During your Xeomin® treatment, a topical numbing cream can be applied to the skin to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. Most patients do not find the injections to be painful, however. Xeomin® will be carefully injected into the forehead and around the eyes with a fine needle. The entire procedure takes less than 30 minutes.
After your injections, you may experience some mild swelling and bruise around the injection site but this will reduce within a few days. Xeomin® develops quicker than Botox and you will begin to see results in five days. The smoothed appearance of your facial lines and wrinkles typically lasts 3-4 months.
