About Xeomin

Xeomin is an FDA-approved prescription injectable made with incobotulinumtoxinA that does not contain an accessory protein. 

It works similarly to Botox by temporarily relaxing selected muscles that create dynamic wrinkles and downward force of the lower face. It is commonly chosen for lines caused by repeated movement such as frowning, squinting, or raising the brows. Xeomin is known for its highly purified formulation without accessory proteins.

What It Treats

Xeomin is commonly used for:

  • Frown Lines Between The Brows
  • Forehead Lines
  • Crow’S Feet
  • Jowls
  • Pebbly Chin
  • Lip Lines In Selected Cases
  • Platysma Neck Banding
  • Excessive Arm Pit Sweating

It may not be the best solution for concerns caused by volume loss, skin laxity, or structural aging.

How Xeomin works

Xeomin works by temporarily reducing the muscle activity responsible for muscle movement and repetitive creasing of the skin. As targeted muscles relax:

Expression Lines Often Soften

Deeper Movement-Related Wrinkles May Appear Less Noticeable

Future Line Formation May Slow in Treated Areas

Jaw Line Will Be Better Defined

Platysmal Bands Will Be Noticeably Decreased

The goal at Nuvo Med is not a frozen look. The goal is strategic softening with natural movement where appropriate.

The Xeomin experience

Before

Your movement patterns, anatomy, treatment history, and goals are reviewed. A customized dosing plan is created.

During

Small amounts are injected with a fine needle into selected muscles. Most appointments take about 10 to 15 minutes depending on treatment areas.

After

Most patients resume normal activity the same day. Specific aftercare guidance is reviewed at your visit.

Results & expectations for Xeomin

Results often begin appearing within several days, with fuller effects developing over 1 to 2 weeks. Xeomin tends to take effect sooner than Botox and last longer than Botox.

Many patients enjoy results for several months, though timing varies by metabolism, dose, treatment area, and muscle strength.

Consistent treatment may support smoother long-term maintenance.

Xeomin improves dynamic and static wrinkles, but it does not replace treatments for skin quality, volume loss, or laxity when those are the primary concerns.

Patient Reviews for Xeomin
