What Is XEOMIN?
Even though you may have been able to smile, frown, laugh, and make other facial expressions without any lasting effects in earlier years, you may now be realizing that the facial lines and wrinkles created by these expressions are staying, even after your face has relaxed. These lines are called dynamic wrinkles and are caused by the overuse of the facial muscles that makes them stay contracted, crafting etched lines in the overlying skin. XEOMIN is an injectable wrinkle releaser that, much like BOTOX®, temporarily relaxes the facial muscles with a purified strain of botulinum toxin type A so your dynamic wrinkles look smoother and softer. At AestheticFX Med Spa in Frisco, TX, we provide many cosmetic and dermatology services similar to XEOMIN wrinkle relaxing treatments. Arrange for a consultation with Beverly Farris, MSN, APRN, ACNP-BC, FNP-C, to learn more about XEOMIN.
Reviews
What are the Benefits of XEOMIN?
While options like cosmetic surgery are invasive, XEOMIN is a gentle way to achieve similar results. There is no recovery time required after receiving XEOMIN injections, and results last for several months. Many people report satisfaction with their treatment and find that injections are well worth the investment. Patients choose AestheticFX Med Spa because our team is experienced, compassionate, and dedicated to providing exceptional care.
Am I A Candidate for XEOMIN?
XEOMIN can help if you want to diminish the look of dynamic wrinkles on the face, such as frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal lines on the forehead, Crow's feet in the outer corners of the eyes, and smile and laugh lines. Ideal candidates for XEOMIN are in good overall health, are not currently pregnant, and have never had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin products, including BOTOX and Dysport®. Talk to our team during your consultation at AesthetixFX about your medical history, current medications, and aesthetic goals so we can create your XEOMIN treatment plan for your best results.
How Does Xeomin Work?
XEOMIN injections at AestheticFX Med Spa usually take under 30 minutes from beginning to end and can be completed in our procedure room after your consultation. The areas of the face receiving treatment will be cleaned before XEOMIN is meticulously injected with a specialized needle. The procedure is fast, and most patients experience mild or no discomfort, so local anesthesia is not necessary but available upon request. Cold compresses and pressure will be applied to the treatment site to reduce minor bleeding prior to your returning home.
What to Expect Following XEOMIN Treatment
You will be permitted to leave our office upon the completion of your XEOMIN treatment to resume your daily activities; however, exercise and other strenuous activities should be skipped for the rest of the day. You may want to sleep in a slightly elevated position and apply cold compresses periodically to expedite healing and results. In the days after a XEOMIN injection, you may experience some redness, swelling, and bruising near the injection areas, but this should heal on its own and can be easily covered up with makeup. Many individuals notice obvious improvements 3 – 4 days following their XEOMIN treatment, lasting up to three months. Repeat treatments at AestheticFX can be scheduled to sustain your results.
XEOMIN FAQ
Should I get XEOMIN or BOTOX?
XEOMIN and BOTOX are injectable wrinkle relaxers activated by a purified strain of botulinum toxin. Our skilled injectors at AestheticFX understand the differences between XEOMIN and other wrinkle treatments so they can decide which will deliver the desired results for each patient. In your initial consultation, your injector will listen to your needs and concerns before choosing if XEOMIN or a different brand is right for your goals.
Is XEOMIN safe?
XEOMIN is approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) as a cosmetic wrinkle treatment and can be safely used on most patients. In your initial consultation, your injector will ask many questions, such as any known allergies and prescription medications, supplements, and herbs you are currently taking. It would be best if you were honest to avoid complications or side effects.
How often should I get XEOMIN injections?
Improvements from XEOMIN treatment can last up to three months. Each patient will metabolize XEOMIN at a different rate, which will determine how long their treatment lasts. During your consultation, your injector will discuss how often you should schedule touch-up appointments.
