How Xeomin Works

Xeomin contains botulinum toxin type A, which blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. This reduces muscular contractions and temporarily paralyzes the muscles, preventing wrinkle-causing facial expressions.

Treatment with Xeomin results in a smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines on areas of the face such as the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. The effects of Xeomin become noticeable within 2 weeks after injection, and results can last up to 3 months. Periodic maintenance injections help sustain the desired aesthetic results.

Xeomin for Hyperhidrosis

Besides its use as an anti-wrinkle treatment, Xeomin is also effective in treating hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating. This condition can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, causing discomfort and embarrassment. Xeomin works by temporarily blocking nerve transmitters that activate the process of sweating, providing relief from this condition. Xeomin for hyperhidrosis is a quick, in-office procedure that can provide long-lasting results. The treatment is performed by injecting Xeomin into the underarm area, where it blocks the nerve signals that stimulate sweat glands. Results can be noticeable within 2 weeks and can last up to six months.

Ideal Candidates for Xeomin Treatment

Candidates for Xeomin treatment are typically individuals who are concerned about the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, bunny lines, masseters, lip flip and bands. These lines and wrinkles are often a result of repeated muscle contractions from facial expressions. Xeomin injections can help to soften these fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Ideal candidates for Xeomin treatment should:

Be in good overall health
Have realistic expectations about the results
Understand that Xeomin is a treatment, not a cure, for fine lines and wrinkles
Be willing to maintain the results with regular treatments every three to four months
Not be pregnant or breastfeeding
Not have a history of allergic reactions to botulinum toxin products

Xeomin Treatment Procedure

The Xeomin treatment procedure is a quick and relatively painless process. Here are the steps involved in the procedure:

Consultation

During the initial consultation, Dr. Vitenas will evaluate your facial anatomy, skin condition, and discuss your aesthetic goals. This will help to determine the most effective treatment plan for you.

Preparation

The treatment area is cleaned, and a topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort.

Injection

Using a fine needle, Xeomin is injected into the targeted facial muscles. The number of injections will depend on the severity of the wrinkles and the treatment area.

Post-Treatment Care

After the injections, you may be advised to avoid strenuous activities and exposure to heat or sun for a certain period.

Follow-Up

A follow-up appointment may be scheduled to assess the results and determine if additional treatments are necessary.

Xeomin Treatment Recovery

After receiving Xeomin injections, most patients can return to their normal activities immediately. There may be some initial redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but these side effects typically subside within a few hours to a few days. It’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and exposure to heat or sun for 24 hours after the treatment to minimize the risk of side effects. In terms of the recovery timeline, patients can expect:

1-4 days

Initial results begin to appear as the targeted facial muscles start to relax.

7-14 days

Full effects of the treatment are typically visible, with a noticeable reduction in the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

3-6 months

The effects of Xeomin start to fade, and a follow-up treatment may be necessary to maintain the results.

Results

Xeomin treatment offers noticeable results that can significantly enhance your appearance. After the treatment, you can expect a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a smoother and more youthful look. The targeted facial muscles relax, which reduces the development of dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle contractions.

Results typically start to show up to four days after treatment, with full effects visible within 7 to 14 days. The results of Xeomin treatment are not permanent, but they can last between three to six months. Most patients schedule follow-up treatments every three to four months to maintain the results.

It’s important to remember that individual results can vary. Factors such as the treatment area, the number of units injected, and individual response to the treatment can influence the results.

Remember, everyone’s recovery timeline can vary based on individual factors, including the treatment area, the number of units injected, and individual response to the treatment.

Cost of Xeomin Injections
