Neurotoxins are injectable treatments that temporarily relax facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles. Albuquerque Vein & Laser Institute offers Xeomin®, an FDA- approved neuromodulator that target expression lines such as crow’s feet, forehead creases, and frown lines. While all neurotoxins, such as Botox and Xeomin work similarly, Xeomin is a unique neurotoxin.
XEOMIN is a highly purified neurotoxin used to smooth wrinkles and reduce muscle activity that causes lines and folds. It’s effective, safe, and a powerful weapon in the fight against aging. It is often referred to as the “naked” neurotoxin because, unlike other neurotoxins, such as Botox, Xeomin only includes the botulinum toxin without any additional proteins. This often minimizes the risk of developing resistance to the treatment, as the body’s immune system is less likely to develop antibodies to “fight” off the “foreign substance”, with many patients reporting longer-lasting and more noticeable results. The product’s “purity” also results in fewer allergic reactions.
Xeomin relaxes the muscles that cause our forehead and eyes to develop “expression” wrinkles, especially when we smile, raise our eyebrows or make a face. The most common areas treated include the “11’s” (lines between the eyebrows), “crow’s feet” (around the eyes), as well as around the mouth. It can also be strategically used to provide a minimal lift to the eyebrows or relax an aging mouth that is starting to turn downward.
Some results will be immediately noticeable, with the full effects visible within a week. Similar to Botox, Xeomin results last three to four months, and many patients find that their bodies do not metabolize the Xeomin as quickly as Botox.
Xeomin can help prevent the formation of deeper, more pronounced wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles.
