What is Xeomin?
Xeomin is an injectable neurotoxin, specifically botulinum toxin type A, that targets the facial muscles responsible for creases and wrinkles. It works by blocking the nerve signals that cause these muscles to contract, allowing the skin to smooth out and offer a more youthful appearance. This treatment is popular for those who are looking for quick, efficient solutions for signs of aging.
Xeomin vs. Botox
Why choose Xeomin over Botox? Xeomin is produced using a slightly different manufacturing process that involves removing surface proteins from the botulinum toxin, earning it the nickname of "naked Botox". The absence of these proteins makes it LESS LIKELY for you to build up a tolerance, which could make the treatment less effective over time.
If you've noticed that Botox isn't working as well for you anymore, or if you plan to have regular treatments for a long time, you might want to consider switching to Xeomin.
