What are Botox and Xeomin?

Botox and Xeomin are injectable neuromodulators that can alter the targeted muscles of nerve impulses, temporarily. This helps to eliminate or reduce wrinkles induced by contractions and improve your vitality. Both brands use the same Botulinum Toxin substance, only with a slight formulation. Botox was the first to hit the market and earned itself the name “Botoxed” due to how fast the procedure became popular. Xeomin is a more modern brand that offers the same reliable results as Botox. 

 

What’s the Difference Between Botox, Xeomin, and Derma Filler?

Unlike other facial fillers, both Botox and Xeomin do not restore volume loss or fill in facial lines. Rather, they relax the muscles that cause the lines beneath the skin. Facial fillers can help fill the facial lines in and give the volume back that was lost over time.

​

How Long Does Botox Last?

Generally, Botox lasts around 3 to 4 months. However, for some patients, Botox will last longer or shorter. For example, in some patience, Botox will last 4 to 6 months, or within a 2-month range. There will also be first-timers who notice their initial treatment may not last that long, but their second treatment may last much longer.

​

Are Botox and Xeomin Safe?

Both Botox and Xeomin have had a well-established, long safety history. You probably already heard about the popular wrinkle treatment BOTOX which has actually been used for over 18 years. It has been treating a wide range of medical conditions effectively and is among the most widely researched treatments in the world.

​

Will Treatment Make Me Lose Facial Expressions?

BOTOX and Xeomin are not intended to change how you look, rather they enhance your looks. When an experienced health professional administers your treatment, you will still be able to frown, smile, and more. The treatment relaxes only the muscle below the injection lines, so your other facial expression elements will remain active.

​

Is Botox Painful?

Cosmetic treatment like Botox is simple, quick, and painless. A little liquid is forced through a very fine needle to minimize any pain from the injections. You won’t require no anesthetics and you can resume your normal activities, but should not perform any heavy exercise for at least 4 hours post treatment.

​

When Will I See Botox Results?

Botox treatment works by relaxing muscles to prevent skin from creasing. It can take around 2 weeks before you will see the full results, which can last for up to 3 months. However, results vary among each person.
