Xeomin is an FDA-approved injection that relaxes specific facial muscles to soften expression lines. It contains only the active ingredient, with no accessory proteins, and is available at our Cutchogue office.
Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. The FDA approved it for frown lines between the brows in 2011.
It works the same way as Botox and Dysport. A provider injects small doses into the muscles that cause specific lines. The medication blocks the nerve signal that tells those muscles to contract, so the skin above them smooths.
The main difference is the formula. Other brands include accessory proteins alongside the active ingredient, while Xeomin contains none.
Results typically appear in 3 to 7 days and reach full effect in about 2 weeks. They typically last 3 to 4 months.
This treatment suits adults who want to soften expression lines without surgery or downtime.
Because it contains only the active ingredient, some patients prefer Xeomin.
Some patients try Xeomin after using another brand. We review your treatment history before recommending a switch.
The injections relax muscles but do not add volume. Patients with volume loss often combine it with Dermal Fillers or a PDO Thread Lift.
