Over time, our natural facial expressions can produce frown lines where muscle contractions fold the skin and create wrinkles. These aging signs can remain, becoming more prominent over time and adding to the aged look of our most prominent feature, our face. One safe and natural way to treat unwanted frown lines is through neuromodulators.
A neuromodulator treatment, such as Xeomin, can gently and effectively neutralize the muscles which create these frown lines, softening their appearance and preventing their further development. For those concerned about frown lines but who also want the most natural treatment with the least risk, Xeomin is an appropriate and exciting option.
Xeomin represents an advanced step in the evolution of neuromodulators. Created through a highly-advanced manufacturing process, the treatment you will receive includes only the active agents which will benefit your skin. Non-active proteins and compounds are eliminated during the production of the injectable, limiting your exposure to non-essential ingredients and significantly reducing your risks.
As with most injectables, you can receive your treatment on an outpatient basis, with the entire procedure lasting no more than a half hour in most cases. First, your medical provider will meet with you to discuss your aesthetic goals, and after a careful evaluation, they will plan your Xeomin treatment.
When your procedure day arrives, your medical provider will cleanse the area before treatment. The procedure does not require any anesthetic. After a few injections into the muscles where the frown lines occur, your procedure will be complete. You may experience some mild discomfort, but most patients leave the office comfortably.
You will have no downtime after your Xeomin procedure, and you can immediately return to work or your busy schedule. You will also have no complicated aftercare instructions to follow. You can simply care for the treated area the way you would normally care for your skin.
You will see the results from your Xeomin treatment right away. In as few as 5 to 7 days, you can begin to see improvements in your frown lines. The full effects of your treatment will gradually appear over the next two weeks.
Xeomin treatments are long-lasting, and you can enjoy your new, softened frown lines for up to 4 months, though the length of results vary from individual to individual. Xeomin touch-ups will be as fast, effective and long-lasting as your initial treatment.
Your medical provider will administer Xeomin precisely to the muscles producing your frown lines, limiting the effects of the injectables to only the areas where you need it and minimizing the effects to the surrounding muscles. The precise application of the injectable means you can have all of the benefits with minimal risks.
Your medical provider can also tailor the quantity of Xeomin applied to ensure your satisfaction. Xeomin results last around four months, which means you can adjust treatments to improve your results in just a few weeks if you seek greater improvements or prefer a more subtle change.
All medical procedures have some risks. Xeomin’s most common side effects include headache, dry mouth, injection-site sensitivity, tiredness or muscle weakness, neck pain and in rare cases vision problems, and you should contact your medical provider as soon as possible if you notice these problems. Allergic reactions are another common side effect. If you have allergy sensitivities, discuss this with your medical provider before having Xeomin.
If you have certain pre-existing conditions, Xeomin may not be right for you. If you have any of the following medical symptoms, discuss them with your medical provider before your Xeomin treatment. Contraindications for Xeomin include diseases of the muscles such as Lou Gehrig’s disease, previous negative side effects from botulin treatments, breathing problems such as asthma, issues with bleeding or swallowing, previous facial surgery and pregnancy, imminent pregnancy or breastfeeding.
