Xeomin in Westchester, NY

What is Xeomin?

Xeomin is an FDA-approved injectable botulinum toxin type A that reduces the appearance of frown lines by relaxing the facial muscles. Xeomin’s formula is double filtered using XTRACT technology. This unique process removes unnecessary proteins and only keeps the isolated therapeutic components of the neurotoxin.

What is Xeomin Treatment Like?

The actual treatment time for Xeomin is around 10 minutes. Before the injectable is administered, you might feel a small poke from the needle. Depending on the size of the treatment area, you should expect to receive around five pokes.

Recovery from Xeomin

You should avoid touching your face or taking part in strenuous or excessive movement for the first four to six hours after receiving Xeomin, as this will help ensure the product stays in place. Tenderness and bruising after Xeomin is completely normal. Over-the-counter pain relief or ice packs can help to ease discomfort.

Who is a Candidate for Xeomin?

Although Xeomin’s doubled-filtered formula makes it purer than other injectables, patients with an allergy to botulinum toxin do not qualify for treatment.

Xeomin is great for patients with moderate to severe frown lines, as its clean formula smoothes out the appearance of wrinkles with greater efficacy than other injectables. Its quick treatment is a great option for those who want to see results with minimal recovery time and upkeep. Still not sure if Xeomin is right for you? A consultation with founder and nurse practitioner, Dana Protomastro, can help you decide if you’re an ideal candidate for Xeomin.
