Neuromodulators can help you transform your facial features and smooth away lines and wrinkles. Xeomin® is one of the options in botulinum toxin A neuromodulators, a formula that is very similar to Botox®. Both can relax targeted muscles to change the appearance of lines, wrinkles and facial tissue. If you want an alternative to Botox, Xeomin is an excellent choice. At LL Aesthetics, we provide Xeomin injections for frown line and other treatments at our facility in Miami Beach, FL.
Xeomin works by shutting down the communication between the nerves and targeted muscles, keeping the muscle in a relaxed state. The neurotoxin attaches to nerve receptors to keep muscles from contracting. This effect can stop dynamic lines from forming, such as the glabellar lines, or 11s, between the eyebrows or the crow’s feet around the eyes. It can also smooth the neck cord or slim the masseter muscles in the jaw. Xeomin injections can be used for almost any treatment that is usually performed with Botox.
The biggest difference between Botox and Xeomin is that Xeomin is a purified form of botulinum toxin A, without some of the proteins that Botox contains. For some people, Xeomin may be a better option to achieve the desired results.
Smooth Away Frown Lines
Xeomin is FDA-approved for frown lines treatment. It is also used for many off-label cosmetic treatments. The injections can be performed in about 15-20 minutes. The effects of Xeomin can take a few days to appear, relaxing the muscles and impacting the skin and facial appearance. Like most neuromodulators, the active neurotoxin in Xeomin breaks down into amino acids and is absorbed by the body over the following months. The effects of Xeomin are usually dissipated by the end of the fourth month after treatment.
If you want to eliminate frown or worry lines, or reshape your face or neck, Xeomin injections may be the right choice for you.
