Xeomin® for Wrinkle Reduction and Hyperhidrosis
Xeomin® has recently been approved as a new botulism toxin for wrinkle relaxation. It is approved for use in 20 countries. Like other drugs in this category, Xeomin works by paralyzing wrinkles. It blocks the signals from the nerves to the muscles. As a result, the targeted muscle cannot contract.
It takes about 1 week to see the full effects of Xeomin® and the results last from three to six months. It is manufactured by Merz Aesthetics, the maker of the facial filler Radiesse.
XEOMIN® is a BOTOX® Cosmetic alternative designed to temporarily treat wrinkles and glabellar (frown) lines between the eyebrows, as well as to control excessive underarm sweating. XEOMIN® provides results comparable to BOTOX® Cosmetic and is slightly less expensive. The treatment also contains a lower protein load, which can be helpful for patients who may have developed antibodies against other products or who may have an allergic response to either BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport®.
Just Skin, Inc. is one of the first medical offices in San Diego to offer XEOMIN®, a new alternative to BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® that can significantly reduce wrinkles and fine lines along the face. XEOMIN® can also help reduce excessive underarm sweating for patients who suffer from hyperhidrosis. This innovative new treatment is now available at Just Skin, Inc.
