Xeomin® Wrinkle Treatment
Pittsburgh, PA
Xeomin® Wrinkle Treatment is FDA-approved for temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, also called the glabellar lines. With age, the elasticity of the skin gradually diminishes; causing expression related creases between the eyebrows to deepen and eventually become permanent facial lines. Xeomin temporarily improves the appearance of these facial lines for a more relaxed, refreshed appearance.

Facial Wrinkle Treatments with Xeomin®
Facial wrinkle treatments with Xeomin injections involves temporarily relaxing select facial muscles, limiting their ability to fully contract, and effectively smoothing and reducing the appearance of:
- Frown lines (glabellar lines)
Facial wrinkle treatments with Xeomin involves the injection of a minuscule amount of incobotulinumtoxinA, which is a botulinum toxin type A. Xeomin wrinkle treatment works by temporarily relaxing select facial muscles, limiting their ability to fully contract. After Xeomin injections, all untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion, allowing normal facial expression to remain unaffected.
Following a Xeomin wrinkle treatment, normal activities can resume immediately as long as you remain in an upright position and avoid any pressure on the area for at least 4 or 5 hours.
The results of the Xeomin injections are not instant. Improvement is gradual and usually begins within 2 to 3 days, with the final result achieved in about a week. In most cases, the treated wrinkles will relax and soften, producing a younger, well-rested appearance.
Although the improvement varies with each person, the result may last 3 to 4 months or longer.
