What Is Xeomin®, and How Does It Differ From Other Neuromodulators?
Xeomin®, nicknamed “Smartox” by its creators, is a neuromodulator that relaxes the wrinkles caused by habitual facial expressions. It earned FDA approval in 2011 and has since grown in popularity among clients who have previously used Botox® and are no longer achieving the same results due to resistance. Refined botulinum toxin is the active ingredient in Xeomin®, Dysport®, and Botox®. Xeomin® is distinct because it undergoes an additional step to remove protein additives. As a result, it is less likely to cause allergic reactions and won’t cause your body to produce antibodies which can cause a tolerance or immunity in certain people.
What Concerns Can Xeomin® Injections Address?
Xeomin® can make a difference anywhere you experience signs of aging caused by hyperactive muscles. For example, it is excellent at correcting mild to moderate forehead lines, wrinkles, and creases. However, you can also have it injected into more delicate areas, including under your eyes and your frown lines.
Here are some other common injection sites:
- Upper eyebrows
- Forehead
- Crow’s feet
- bunny lines
- Upper lip
How Does Xeomin® Work to Treat Lines and Wrinkles?
Xeomin®’s manufacturer uses a precise process called XTRACT Technology – a double filtration system that isolates the molecule’s therapeutic and discards the unnecessary proteins that don’t contribute to wrinkle treatments.
When injected into the skin, Xeomin® blocks chemicals that signal the facial muscles to contract. As the muscles relax, the overlying skin remains neutral, resulting in a noticeable reduction of dynamic wrinkles. Neuromodulators are also an excellent preventive treatment. Clients noticing early signs of aging who want to stop it from worsening use Xeomin® to preserve their skin’s integrity.
What to Expect From Xeomin® Injections at Skinlogic
Xeomin® injections at Skinlogic are convenient and efficient. Many of our clients schedule their sessions during their lunchbreak and return to work immediately afterward. After a brief consultation to discuss your needs and goals, the injection process will take 10- 15 minutes. The Skinlogic providers use a micro-needle, giving her precise control over how much product to introduce.
Because of how tiny the needle is, there is generally no need for a topical anesthetic. Most patients only report feeling a slight pinch. However, if you have a fear of needles or concerns about discomfort, don’t hesitate to tell us, and we will take precautions to help you relax.
Recovery After Xeomin® Injections
The beauty of injectable treatments like Xeomin® is that they do not require any incisions or sutures of any kind – only mild pinpricks to the skin. For that reason, there is no downtime necessary after leaving your appointment. Most people experience mild redness, irritation, and bruising at the injection sites, but these generally resolve on their own after a few hours.
The only limitations we recommend are avoiding strenuous physical activities 24 hours after your injections and not laying down 2 hours after your injections. Most Xeomin® patients start noticing an improved appearance within about four days as the product gradually takes effect.
How Many Xeomin® Injections Will I Need to Reach My Goals?
The number of Xeomin® injections you’ll need to reach your desired results will depend on the target area and the extent of your concerns. During your consultation with your Skinlogic provider, they will provide an estimate of how many units of Xeomin® they recommend you need to reach your desired results.
