A Purified Neuromodulator
What Is Xeomin®?
Xeomin® is an injectable neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles.
Like Botox® and Dysport®, Xeomin contains botulinum toxin type A. What makes it different is its purified formulation, which does not contain the accessory proteins found in some other neuromodulators.
By temporarily reducing muscle activity, Xeomin can soften lines caused by repeated facial expressions and create a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
Treatment is customized according to your facial anatomy, muscle strength, and desired level of movement.
Refined Wrinkle Relaxing
Why Patients Choose Xeomin
Xeomin is sometimes called a “naked” neuromodulator because it contains the active ingredient without unnecessary accessory proteins.
This simplified formulation may appeal to patients who prefer a purity-focused option or who have had reduced response to another neuromodulator.
Request a ConsultationTargeted Muscle Relaxation
How Does Xeomin® Work?
Xeomin temporarily blocks communication between selected nerves and muscles. When the targeted muscle receives fewer contraction signals, it relaxes.
Reducing repeated muscle movement allows the overlying skin to appear smoother and helps prevent expression lines from becoming more deeply etched.
Treatment does not need to eliminate all movement. Conservative placement and dosing can soften wrinkles while allowing you to smile, frown, and express yourself naturally.

Personalized and Precise
What to Expect at Your Xeomin Appointment
Your appointment begins with a discussion of your goals, previous treatment history, and the areas you would like to improve.
Your provider will assess your facial structure and ask you to make several expressions so the movement of the underlying muscles can be evaluated.
A series of small injections is then placed into the selected muscles. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch, and the procedure is usually completed within 10 to 20 minutes.
Mild redness, swelling, or bruising may occur at the injection sites, but these effects are generally temporary.
Treatment Overview
- Treatment time: Approximately 10 to 20 minutes
- Discomfort: Usually described as a brief pinch
- Initial results: Often visible within three to seven days
- Full results: Commonly visible within one to two weeks
- Typical duration: Approximately three to four months
Choosing the Right Neuromodulator
Xeomin vs. Botox and Dysport
Xeomin, Botox, and Dysport all use botulinum toxin type A to temporarily reduce muscle activity.
They differ slightly in formulation, onset, diffusion, and how individual patients respond. Xeomin is distinguished by its purified formulation without accessory proteins.
There is no single neurotoxin that is best for everyone. Your provider will recommend the option that best fits your treatment history, facial anatomy, and goals.
Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation
Can Xeomin Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Xeomin may be combined with dermal fillers, facials, laser treatments, and other aesthetic services as part of a broader rejuvenation plan.
Xeomin addresses muscle-driven wrinkles, while fillers restore volume and skin treatments improve tone, texture, pigmentation, and hydration.
Your provider will recommend appropriate timing between treatments to help protect your results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Xeomin different from other neurotoxins?
Xeomin is sometimes called the "naked" neurotoxin because it doesn't contain the additive proteins found in some other formulas. Some patients find this results in a lower chance of developing resistance to treatment over time, though results between neurotoxins are often similar.
How long does Xeomin last?
Most patients see smooth, refreshed results for about three to four months. Your results can vary depending on your muscle strength and how your body metabolizes the treatment, so we'll help you plan a schedule that keeps your results consistent.
Is Xeomin better than Botox or Dysport?
There isn't one neurotoxin that's better for everyone. Botox and Dysport work in a similar way to Xeomin, but they differ slightly in formulation and onset. We'll help you choose the option that matches your goals and how your body responds to treatment.
When will I see results from Xeomin?
Most patients start noticing smoother skin within three to seven days of treatment, with full results visible by about two weeks. We'll go over what to expect during your appointment so you know when to plan around any upcoming events.
Will Xeomin make my face look frozen?
Xeomin does not need to eliminate all facial movement. Precise placement and conservative dosing can soften wrinkles while preserving natural facial expression.
Does Xeomin hurt?
Most patients describe Xeomin injections as a quick pinch rather than a painful experience. We use fine needles and can apply a topical numbing cream beforehand if you're sensitive to discomfort, keeping the treatment quick and comfortable.
Is there downtime after Xeomin?
There is typically little to no required downtime. Mild redness, swelling, or bruising may occur, but most patients return to their normal routine immediately.
Can Xeomin be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Xeomin can often be combined with dermal fillers, facials, laser treatments, and other aesthetic services. Your provider will recommend the most appropriate order and timing.
