XEOMIN Houston TX

Xeomin at Defiage Med Spa in Houston Texas

Seeing lines appear is one of the most noticeable hallmarks of aging. Naturally, facial wrinkles and lines develop after years of expression and form into the deeper static lines we all dread. Although these are natural processes as skin ages, that doesn’t mean you don’t have a say in how young you look! At Defiage, we offer multiple solutions for smoothing those pesky frown lines and signs of aging.

Xeomin is an injectable treatment made from Botulinum Toxin Type A, similar to it’s better known cousin, Botox. Similarly, it is injected directly into the facial muscles that cause lines in the face such as the forehead lines and frown lines, for a smooth skin appearance. This FDA-approved treatment not only reduces the appearance of existing wrinkles, but is a convenient treatment for preventing future facial lines and signs of aging!

Xeomin injections at Defiage Med Spa in Houston and Katy TX give you the choice to age gracefully, and express yourself without the lines.

How does Xeomin treatment work?

Xeomin works by relaxing muscle contractions that fold the skin and form lines and wrinkles in the injection sites, much like other botulinum toxin products. Injections come as a clear liquid solution, administered through a needle directly into the wrinkle areas, such as the glabellar lines. This results in temporary paralysis of facial muscle contractions, making it an effective option in the prevention of dynamic wrinkles and deep lines. Once your targeted muscles relax, the overlying skin smooths out, revealing a rejuvenated and younger-looking you– without lines and wrinkles.

Xeomin is often combined with other skin care treatments such as dermal fillers for further improvement towards your aesthetic goals and facial rejuvenation.

What are the benefits of Xeomin?

This treatment provides a convenient solution for both preventing and treating facial lines, particularly between the brows and in the forehead. Beginning anti-wrinkle injections early can delay the need for more invasive cosmetic procedures in the future, as this treatment helps to maintain the integrity and youthfulness of your skin! Patients love the convenience and the results they can achieve from a single 15-minute appointment.

Xeomin vs Botox

While Botox and Xeomin produce similar results and are both used for treatment of facial wrinkles, these two botulinum toxin injections are different in formulation. Botox also contains accessory proteins in addition to botulinum toxin, while Xeomin is purely botulinum toxin, which may lower the risk for the rare event of an allergic reaction.

Xeomin is best suited for larger areas of the face and is specially formulated for glabellar lines, while Botox is able to target wrinkles in more concentrated areas such as crows feet.
