BOOK NOWXeomin® is a type of botulinum toxin type A, similar to Botox and Dysport, used primarily for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. It works by temporarily paralyzing muscles where it is injected. Here’s a closer look at how Xeomin® works:
Xeomin® acts on the neuromuscular junction, the point where nerve cells meet muscle cells. It blocks the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which is responsible for triggering muscle contractions. By inhibiting this neurotransmitter, Xeomin® prevents the muscles from contracting.
In cosmetic applications, the relaxation of muscles leads to a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles. This is particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles, which are lines and creases that form as a result of repetitive facial expressions, like frowning, squinting, or smiling.
Beyond cosmetic uses, Xeomin® is also used to treat various medical conditions that involve overactive muscles or spasms. These include cervical dystonia (severe neck spasms), blepharospasm (eyelid spasms), and even chronic sialorrhea (excessive drooling).
One of the distinguishing features of Xeomin® is that it is a "naked" neurotoxin, meaning it lacks complexing proteins present in other formulations like Botox. This may potentially reduce the likelihood of developing resistance (antibodies to the toxin) in patients who receive injections regularly over long periods.
Xeomin® starts to take effect within a few days of injection, and the results typically last about 3 to 4 months, after which the muscle activity gradually returns, and the treatment can be repeated.
Determining if you're a good candidate for Xeomin® involves considering various factors, including your health, medical history, and specific aesthetic or therapeutic goals. Here’s a general guide to help you assess if Xeomin® might be suitable for you:
Xeomin® is primarily used for cosmetic improvements and certain medical conditions. Here are the common areas and issues where Xeomin® injections are most effective:
While not as commonly targeted, Xeomin® can also be used in other areas based on specific aesthetic goals or therapeutic needs, such as:
For cosmetic treatments, the choice of injection sites and the decision to use Xeomin® should be made with a qualified healthcare provider to ensure safety and achieve the desired results. For therapeutic applications, it is typically administered as part of a broader treatment plan for managing symptoms of muscle-related conditions.
