XEOMIN / BOTOX
Wrinkle Relaxation Treatment
Overview
Xeomin is a neuromodulator used to temporarily improve the appearance of dynamic facial lines caused by repeated muscle movement. By relaxing targeted muscles, Xeomin softens the appearance of wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expression.
Xeomin and Botox are both FDA-approved wrinkle relaxers that work in a similar way to soften expression lines.
At our practice, Xeomin is commonly used for cosmetic treatments.
How It Works
Xeomin works by blocking the nerve signals that cause specific facial muscles to contract. This allows the overlying skin to relax, reducing the appearance of expression lines.
