When you frown or scowl, your facial muscles contract and scrunch up your skin. Over time, these facial expressions can create fine lines or deep wrinkles.
If you notice unsightly vertical lines between your eyebrows (known as the “eyebrow 11s”), Xeomin injections can help. At Athena Plastic Surgery, we have skilled injectors who can help you keep your complexion smooth and wrinkle-free.
What Is Xeomin?
Xeomin injections are made of a substance known as a neuromodulator. The neuromodulator blocks nerve signals from your brain that tell your muscles to contract when you make facial expressions. As a result, your fine lines and wrinkles appear smoother — and new ones stop forming.
Your body metabolizes the Xeomin formula after about three months. This means you can enjoy smoother skin for a quarter of a year before you visit us again for maintenance injections.
Areas of Treatment
Wrinkle-relaxing injectables treat different areas of your face. Xeomin is FDA-approved for treating vertical wrinkles between your eyebrows. These wrinkles — known as frown lines, glabellar lines, or “eyebrow 11s” — tend to form as you age because your skin loses firmness.
If you struggle with deepening lines between your eyebrows, consider Xeomin treatments to reduce their appearance.
In some cases, Xeomin may also be applied to other facial wrinkles. When you meet with us for your initial consultation, we will evaluate your skin as it is now. This will show us where you may need additional wrinkle correction with injectables.
Comfortable Injection Experience
When you come in for Xeomin treatments, we prioritize your comfort. We offer topical numbing cream for your face in the areas of injection. Once your skin is numb, we begin the injection process. The process usually takes 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the number of injections you need.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, we will be happy to help you. We make sure you are fully informed throughout the Xeomin treatment process so you can enjoy your smooth skin to the fullest afterward.
Fast-Acting Results
Within three to four days of your Xeomin treatment, you will notice the wrinkle-relaxing action of the injections. Certain facial muscles involved in expressions will not contract, giving you a more relaxed look overall. We take pride in producing natural-looking Xeomin results. No one has to know you got Xeomin unless you want them to.
The Benefits of Xeomin Injections
Xeomin has numerous advantages for patients who wish to reduce their wrinkles and fine lines. Here are some of the benefits of getting Xeomin injections.
Relaxed Facial Expressions
Aging can make you look angry, frustrated, or tense as your skin wrinkles and takes on a harsher appearance. Lines between your eyebrows can make it seem like you’re always scowling.
With Xeomin treatments, your skin smooths out as your facial muscles relax. This makes you look more at ease, friendly, and approachable. If you want to soften the space between your eyebrows, Xeomin is the treatment for you.
Minimally Invasive and Convenient
There is no surgery required for you to enjoy Xeomin’s wrinkle-relaxing benefits. You can simply book an appointment and go about your day as normal afterward.
You don’t need to plan for any downtime after your Xeomin injections. It is best to avoid the sun for a few days, but you can go back to working or running errands. Xeomin is a great option for busy people who prefer minimally invasive treatments.
Customized Treatment Plans
We inject the Xeomin formula in units, making this treatment customizable for your exact needs. We conduct a personalized consultation before your treatments begin so that we can address your questions and concerns.
No Commitment Needed
If you want to try Xeomin before committing to future treatments, this is a great option for you. Xeomin results are temporary, lasting three to four months after your injections. This means you can decide how you feel about the treatment and figure out how many units work best for your desired appearance.
Unlike more permanent procedures, this one requires no commitment after the first treatment.
Youthful-Looking Skin
Most people would like to look younger in some way. Xeomin gives your forehead a more youthful appearance that topical skin care products just can’t achieve. With these injections, you can expect a smoother brow with less-noticeable frown lines.
Get a Personalized Consultation
We are happy to help you achieve a smoother, relaxed forehead with Xeomin injections. Before your first appointment with us, we will schedule a personalized consultation. During your consultation, we will evaluate your facial wrinkles and the severity of your skin’s aging. We will create an effective treatment plan to relax your expression lines.
We treat every patient as an individual, not a number. Your goals and desires for your appearance matter most. Whether you need intense wrinkle correction or mild touch-ups every now and then, we are here to help you get the most out of your Xeomin treatments.
