Where is Xeomin® Administered?

Xeomin® is primarily used to treat the “frown lines” that develop around the eyes and between the eyebrows. These frown lines develop and become pronounced over time because of the repetitive motions of making facial expressions. These repeated motions result in a natural contraction of facial muscles which gain definition over time.

How Does Xeomin® Reduce Wrinkles?

Xeomin® injections suppress the release of chemicals that cause muscles to contract, which has the immediate effect of softening existing frown lines. Additionally, by preventing the facial muscles from contracting further, this treatment reduces the overall pronunciation and development of frown lines over time. 

What Else Can Xeomin® Injections Treat?

Xeomin® is also an approved medical treatment for Cervical Dystonia. This condition arises when abnormal nerve signals instruct muscles in the head and neck to contract unnecessarily. These contractions result in many undesired side effects including abnormal head positions, uncomfortable movement, and pain. Xeomin® can be used to block these signals, preventing the targeted muscles from contracting, which can result in more relaxed movements and a reduction in pain.

What Does the Recovery Process Look Like?

Similar to other cosmetic injections, like Botox and Dysport, there is generally zero downtime ro recovery needed following Xeomin® injections. After your session, you’ll probably notice some redness and swelling at each injection site.

You’ll receive instructions following your treatment, but please note it’s important to refrain from rubbing the injection site(s) to prevent migration of the product.
