As you age, it is natural for lines and wrinkles to develop on your face. These creases often occur due to repetitive muscle movements, such as frowning or squinting, and can cause your face to appear tired, stressed or upset even when you feel completely at ease. If you are looking for a way to smooth these wrinkles and refresh your appearance, XEOMIN® may be an excellent option for you.
XEOMIN (incobotulinumtoxinA) is an FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to temporarily reduce moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Like BOTOX®, XEOMIN works by targeting the underlying muscles responsible for these lines. It blocks the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, allowing the overlying skin to relax and smooth out. This treatment helps you achieve a more youthful, natural-looking appearance without invasive procedures.
A XEOMIN appointment typically takes just 10 to 20 minutes. During the treatment, our skilled dentists will carefully inject XEOMIN into the specific muscles contributing to your wrinkles. Most patients experience little to no discomfort, but we can provide a topical anesthetic or a cold compress if needed to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
You can expect to notice the effects of XEOMIN within three to seven days after your treatment. The results generally last for three to six months, depending on how your body metabolizes the product. Regular follow-up treatments can help maintain your smooth, rejuvenated appearance over time.
XEOMIN is a popular choice for patients seeking a minimally invasive option to address facial wrinkles. If you are considering this treatment, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with our team. We will evaluate your aesthetic goals and medical history to determine if XEOMIN is right for you.
