Overview

Even though you may have been able to smile, frown, laugh, and make other facial expressions without concern when you were younger, you may now be realizing that the facial wrinkles caused by these expressions are staying, even after your face has relaxed. These lines are actually called dynamic wrinkles and they're caused by the overuse of the facial muscles that makes them stay contracted, forming etched lines in the skin. Xeomin is an injectable wrinkle relaxer that, like BOTOX, temporarily relaxes the facial muscles with a strain of purified botulinum so your skin appears smoother and softer. At The Art of Braces in Las Vegas, NV, Dr. Saoly Benson performs Xeomin nonsurgical wrinkle relaxing treatments. Arrange for a consult with Dr. Saoly Benson for more information about Xeomin.

Best Candidates

Xeomin helps to diminish the look of dynamic wrinkles on the face, including frown lines, forehead lines, Crow's feet, plus smile and laugh lines. Ideal candidates for Xeomin are in good overall health, are not currently pregnant, and have never had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin products, including BOTOX. Speak with Dr. Benson at your consultation about your medical history, current medications, and your aesthetic goals so she can create a Xeomin treatment plan that is specific to you.

What to Expect

Xeomin injections typically last under 30 minutes beginning to end and can be completed after your consultation. The parts of the face receiving treatment will be sterilized before Xeomin is gently injected with a fine needle. The procedure is fast and generally does not cause great discomfort so local anesthesia is not necessary but available upon request. Cold compresses and pressure will be applied to the treatment site to prevent minor bleeding before you leave.

Recovery

You will be permitted to leave our facility after receiving your Xeomin injections to return to your daily activities; however, vigorous exercise should be skipped until the next day. We may recommend that you sleep in a slightly elevated position and apply cold compresses as needed to expedite recovery and results. Following a Xeomin treatment, you may experience some bruising, swelling, and redness near the treatment areas, but this is no cause for concern and can be easily covered up with makeup. Many individuals notice visible improvements 3 – 4 days following their Xeomin treatment lasting approximately three months. Repeat injections at The Art of Braces can be arranged to optimize your results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Xeomin cost?
The cost of your Xeomin treatment will depend on the number of injections needed to address your unique concerns. During your consultation, you should share your goals with Dr. Benson so your treatment plan can be created and then your cost can be estimated. The Art of Braces accepts many forms of payment and frequently has specials on injectable treatments, like Xeomin.

Should I get Xeomin or BOTOX?
Xeomin is different from BOTOX and other injectable wrinkle relaxers because it only contains one ingredient (botulinum toxin A) and does not contain any additives, which lessens the chances of building antibodies against the medication. You should not use Xeomin with other botulinum products. During your consultation, Dr. Benson can determine the best injectable wrinkle relaxer for you and your cosmetic goals.

Is Xeomin FDA approved?
Xeomin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for cosmetic uses. Based on two U.S. clinical trials, Xeomin is a safe and effective treatment for adults with cervical dystonia, blepharospasm, facial lines, wrinkles, and folds. It has been widely used for decades and is a very popular treatment worldwide.

Who cannot get Xeomin?
Medications, such as cold and allergy medication, muscle relaxers, sleeping aids, and urinary medications can increase the chance of Xeomin’s side effects. You should let Dr. Benson know during your first visit if you are currently using any blood thinners or antibiotics.

How do I maintain my results from Xeomin?
Xeomin injections have a temporary effect and are given months apart. During your consultation, be sure to ask Dr. Benson about how often you should visit The Art of Braces for touch-ups.
