What is Xeomin®?
Xeomin® is an FDA-approved, purified neuromodulator injectable designed to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for expression lines, creating a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Unlike some other neuromodulators, Xeomin contains botulinum toxin type A without added accessory proteins and is often referred to as a “naked” neurotoxin because of its highly purified formulation. It includes only the active ingredient needed for treatment, making it a simple and effective option for wrinkle reduction.

What Areas Can Xeomin® Treat?
Xeomin is commonly used to treat dynamic facial wrinkles, which develop from repeated muscle movement over time.
Frown Lines
Vertical 11 lines between the eyebrows that develop from years of frowning, squinting, and repeated facial expressions.
Forehead Lines
Horizontal wrinkles across the forehead that become more noticeable with repeated eyebrow movement and aging skin.
Crow’s Feet
Fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes are caused by smiling, laughing, squinting, and everyday facial movement.
Bunny Lines
Fine wrinkles along the sides of the nose that appear when smiling, laughing, or scrunching the nose
Chin Dimpling
A dimpled or “orange peel” chin texture is caused by overactive chin muscles and repeated facial movement.
Neck Bands
Prominent vertical bands in the neck that become more noticeable over time due to muscle activity and aging.
What Are the Key Benefits of Xeomin Treatment?
Preserve Natural Facial Expressions:
Xeomin reduces excessive muscle activity so your expressions continue to look natural while wrinkles appear softer and less noticeable.
Highly Purified Formula:
Xeomin contains botulinum toxin type A without accessory proteins. This purified formulation delivers effective wrinkle relaxation using only the active ingredient needed for the treatment.
Fast Treatment with Minimal Downtime:
Most Xeomin treatments take between 15 and 20 minutes. Patients typically return to work, errands, or daily activities immediately afterward.
Long-Lasting Results:
Results typically become fully visible within a week and tend to last around 3-4 months. With routine maintenance treatments, many patients enjoy consistently smoother skin throughout the year.
How Does Xeomin Work?
Temporarily Relaxes Targeted Muscles
Xeomin is carefully injected into the selected muscles, temporarily blocking the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which is responsible for triggering muscle contractions. By inhibiting this neurotransmitter, Xeomin® prevents the muscles from contracting.
Wrinkles Gradually Become Smoother
As the treated muscles relax, the skin above them is no longer being repeatedly folded with every smile, frown, or raised eyebrow. This allows existing dynamic wrinkles to gradually soften and helps prevent them from becoming deeper over time. The result is smoother-looking skin with natural facial expressions, not a frozen appearance.
Results Appear Over Time and Are Temporary
Unlike dermal fillers, Xeomin doesn’t produce an instant result. Most patients begin noticing subtle improvements within 3 to 4 days, while the full effect develops over the next 10 to 14 days. The effects typically last 3 to 4 months, after which muscle activity gradually returns. Regular maintenance treatments can help keep wrinkles consistently softened while preserving a refreshed, natural look.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. How long does Xeomin last?
Clinical trials have shown that the effects of Xeomin last three to four months. Many patients at our clinic undergo maintenance sessions three to four times a year to consistently maintain the Xeomin cosmetic benefits. With repeated injections, multiple San Diego patients have noticed effects last longer, with some experiencing smooth, wrinkle-free skin for up to six months. When you consult with our licensed practitioner, they will collaborate with you to create an Xeomin treatment schedule that aligns with your aesthetic needs and goals.
2. Can I wear makeup after my Xeomin® appointment?
We generally recommend avoiding makeup on the treated area for several hours after your appointment. This helps minimize irritation and reduces the risk of placing pressure on the injection site.
3. Can Xeomin® be combined with a skincare routine?
Yes, you can combine Xeomin with a skincare routine. Medical-grade skincare helps to enhance the effect of treatment. It helps to improve skin texture, keep skin hydrated, and support overall skin health.
4. Does Xeomin® Hurt?
You could experience mild to moderate discomfort during your Xeomin treatment. Many patients describe the injection as a brief pinching sensation, and it is also normal to have temporary soreness and mild swelling or bruising afterward.
