Xeomin is a prescription neuromodulator made from botulinum toxin type A. Unlike other neuromodulators, Xeomin is a subunit of botulinum-A, called incobotulinum toxin A. It still has a similar effect as Botox and other neurotoxins, relaxing the facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles from repeated contractions. When precisely placed in the correct dosage, Xeomin is an excellent strategy to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, while also preventing the responsible muscles from creating newer or deeper imperfections.
You can absolutely use Xeomin after having used Botox/Dysport. The Xeomin manufacturing process utilizes XTRACT Technology™, a dual-filtration technique that isolates the therapeutic component of the neurotoxin molecule, removing unnecessary proteins that don’t have an active role in treatment and could cause your body to form antibodies against them. This actually makes Xeomin an excellent choice for people who have already had reactions to Botox and/or Dysport.
Though some patients see immediate positive effects, most will begin to see results 3 to 4 days after their treatment. The final, impressive anti-aging results usually take shape after about 2 weeks. Most patients are able to enjoy their more youthful skin appearance for 3 to 4 months at a time. We recommend scheduling maintenance appointments at a similar interval to continue your results.
Pre- & Post-Care Instructions for Xeomin in Brookline
Wrinkle relaxers are also known as neuromodulators or neurotoxins
- Women who are pregnant or nursing should not be treated with wrinkle relaxers.
- We suggest that if you are actively trying to conceive, you consult your physician before being treated with wrinkle relaxers.
- Please allow 2 weeks before and after any vaccinations and your treatment.
- It is best to avoid alcohol & blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.) 24 to 48 hours prior to your treatment. This may increase your risk of bruising.
- If you are prone to and being treated in an area that may cause a Herpes Labialis outbreak, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best and accelerate your healing time as well as enhance results.
- You may consider having at least a snack or a small meal within an hour of your appointment. Getting injected with needles can at times cause you to feel “queasy” or unwell. It always helps to have a little something in your stomach to combat those feelings. We keep juice and snack bars on hand in case you need a little pick-me-up mid-treatment!
- The treatment area may feel sensitive or tender to the touch. This should resolve within 24 hours.
- Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and sweating for 24 to 48 hours.
- Visible injection marks are normal and to be expected in most cases. This usually subsides within 24 hours.
- Treated areas should be cared for gently when washing your face or applying products. It is best to not touch or manipulate the treated area.
- Do not scratch or pick at the injection sites, as this may cause infection.
- We suggest waiting a full 2 weeks before any additional treatments such as facials, peels, laser treatments, etc.
- Wrinkle relaxers may take up to a full 2 weeks to see your final results. For this reason we strongly recommend waiting this time before any further or additional treatment with wrinkle relaxers.
- Try to sleep on your back, with your head elevated, for 1 to 2 nights.
All wrinkle relaxers take time to activate and settle into your muscle. The time it takes varies for everyone. You can expect to see your product “kicking in” anywhere between 5 to 14 days. All wrinkle relaxers begin to “wear off” over time. For consistent and optimal results, we recommend treatment every 3 months.
Although our skilled providers take many precautions in an attempt to prevent bruising, it is a possibility and is an expected and normal side effect of the injection process. We suggest using Arnica gel (may be found in any drugstore) after your treatment to help minimize any bruising.
