First there was Botox—now there’s Xeomin. Xeomin is an injectable approved by the FDA to reduce the appearance of frown lines by targeting muscle activity in the treated area.
Patients don’t have to worry about a stiff or “frozen” look, as Xeomin works through a more natural process. Unlike Botox, Xeomin uses fewer ingredients and eliminates anything unnecessary, making it a streamlined and effective option for wrinkle reduction.
What is Xeomin Used For?
Xeomin is perfect for those who may have allergic reactions or experience headaches from other injectables. It is formulated with purely botulinum Type A whereas other forms of injections contain other carrier proteins. Those looking for a minor lift to their facial appearance should consider Xeomin.
Xeomin vs. Botox
Unlike Botox, Xeomin contains fewer ingredients and eliminates unnecessary proteins and additives that can cause allergic reactions. Xeomin uses purely botulinum Type A, versus Botox using the same ingredient plus additional carrier proteins. This gives Xeomin its reputation as being “naked,” only focusing on the simplest ingredients in order to reduce the chances of unwanted reactions.
