Xeomin® is created through a unique precision production process that isolates the therapeutic part of the molecule and removes the attachment proteins which don’t play an active role in treatment. Xeomin® is a very purified neurotoxin. It also a favorite Injectable filler of Gweneth Paltrow. Like Botox and Dysport, Xeomin is a Botulinum toxin type A, approved to treat wrinkles in your skin. Studies have not been conducted to ascertain whether accessory proteins’ existence or absence has a long-term impact on safety or efficacy. Xeomin is considered different from Botox and Dysport Cosmetic Injections.
Xeomin for Wrinkles
Xeomin is created to treat brow wrinkles, crow’s feet, bunny lines, and frown lines. Over the years, as your skin ages, these repeated expressions cause lasting frown lines. Xeomin® is a prescription medication that blocks the discharge of chemicals that cause these muscle contractions, so frown lines are softened. The main difference is that Botox and Dysport injections include an attachment protein to take the relaxing agent. With the years, patients can build a protein tolerance, causing the Injectable filler to become less effective. Xeomin includes no accessory protein, making it a purer source. This can remove any allergic reactions. However, the results might not survive as long as BOTOX or Dysport. All 3 neurotoxins available on the market nowadays are viable options, and when paired with dermal fillers, can provide patients excellent facial rejuvenation outcomes.
Recovery Time After Receiving a Xeomin Injection
We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for a couple of days after your Xeomin therapy, as the increased blood pressure from physical action can possibly exacerbate bruising. You may experience some slight swelling swelling and redness close to the injection area. These side effects often resolve within a couple of days, and may have already started to fade in a few hours of treatment. Just like most Botulinum toxin treatments, there is little to no downtime after having a Xeomin injection, with the majority of people returning to their regular activities immediately afterward.
