Xeomin/Botox

Xeomin and Botox are purified botulinum toxins and are prescription drugs that, when injected, temporarily paralyzes muscles. This desired effect is used to treat dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles that occur with facial movement), and therefore prevent the formation of static wrinkles which are a result of the loss of elasticity of skin over time.  Common examples of dynamic wrinkles include forehead lines, glabella lines (aka “11” lines), crows feet, and smokers lines around lips. Xeomin/Botox can also be used to create subtle brow and neck lifts, and is also used to treat TMJ disorder.

How does Xeomin/Botox work?

Properly placed injections of Xeomin/Botox, which contain a purified and safe form of botulinum toxin, block nerve impulses sent to muscles, weakening them to the point where they cannot contract.

When will I see results from Xeomin/Botox? How long does it last?

Results from Xeomin/Botox injections are apparent within 24 to 48 hours, and are optimal within 7-10 days. Results often last about 3 months.

What are the possible side effects Xeomin/Botox?

Side effects of Xeomin/Botox are usually mild and temporary. Possible injection-site side effects include pain, infection, inflammation, tenderness, swelling, redness, bleeding and bruising. Rarely, undesired side effect can include eyelid drooping which is also temporary and can be treated with eye drops.
