Is Xeomin® Better Than Botox®?

Before Botox®, surgery was the only way to treat expression lines and wrinkles. Today, you can choose between the original Botox® and several other neuromodulators, including Xeomin®. This new treatment works in a similar way but may have some advantages depending on your needs. View More Patient Results *Individual results may vary What are Xeomin® and Botox®? Xeomin® and Botox® are types of neuromodulators. They both use a compound called botulinum toxin to do their work. This compound acts on your facial nerves, limiting their signals to your facial muscles. As a result, muscles stop pulling on the skin and your wrinkles can relax. Xeomin® and Botox® are generally used to treat the same lines and wrinkles, including horizontal forehead lines, vertical creases between the brows, and crow’s feet at the corners of the eyes. Treating the facial muscles that cause these lines allows the rest of your face to move naturally.  Is Xeomin® Better Than Botox®?

How Long Should I Wait To Get a Facial After Botox®?

Your facial expressions communicate your feelings to the world but also crease and fold your skin. At first, they only appear when you laugh, smile, or frown, but they can become a lasting feature over time. Botox® relaxes facial muscles to smooth lines and wrinkles for a more youthful look. Botox® lets you enjoy all your usual facial expressions but without wrinkles.  What is Botox® (Botulinum Toxin)? Botox® is an injectable treatment that relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines and wrinkles. It uses a purified version of botulinum type A toxin. You can have Botox® to treat forehead lines, crow’s feet, and vertical lines between the brows (glabellar lines or “the 11s). It can also be used around the mouth and in numerous other areas.  How Does Botox® Work? When injected, the botulinum toxin in Botox® interrupts communication between facial nerves and muscles. It causes the targeted nerve to stop sending messages to the muscles that cause your lines and wrinkles. As a result, the muscles become relaxed, making your skin smooth [...]
