Fine lines and wrinkles are natural parts of the aging process. However, their onset can still feel like a betrayal, making you look tired, old, or sad even when you’re bursting with life and vitality. Unique Clinical Aesthetics MedSpa provides highly-calibrated injections of Xeomin in Crescent Springs to relax the facial muscles responsible for your unwanted dynamic wrinkles, making you look (and feel) youthful and revitalized.
What is Xeomin?
Xeomin is one of the most effective neurotoxin injections for unwanted fine lines and dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines. Xeomin is derived from a purified botulinum toxin type A and does not contain any protein additives. Dr. Jarrell will carefully review your medical history and discuss your goals to determine if you’re the ideal candidate for Xeomin in Crescent Springs.
Xeomin Treats:
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Frown lines, also known as glabellar lines, between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Chin dimples, also known as an orange peel chin
- Other dynamic wrinkles, such as the perioral lines and bunny lines
What Causes Dynamic Wrinkles?
Dynamic wrinkles, also known as expression lines, are the lines that appear on your face while producing certain expressions, such as laughing and frowning. You can produce these expressions because of certain facial muscles that are gradually strengthened with consistent usage. As you grow older, the overuse of these facial muscles leads to the permanent appearance of unwanted expression lines.
How Does Xeomin Work?
Xeomin belongs to a category of cosmetic injectables known as neuromodulators — similar to Botox and Jeuveau. It works by relaxing the facial muscles responsible for your unwanted dynamic wrinkles. It’s made of botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin protein that blocks communications between nerve endings and specific facial muscles. When injected carefully, it can temporarily paralyze targeted facial muscles to soften the unwanted expression lines.
Benefits of Xeomin:
- Non-surgical treatment — no incisions or scars
- Low risk of side effects compared with surgery
- Minimal pain or discomfort during the treatment
- Softens unwanted dynamic facial lines
- Less likely to develop a tolerance to Xeomin over long term usage compared to other neurotoxins
- Natural-looking results without signs of cosmetic manipulation
- Minimal downtime — resume daily activities immediately
The Xeomin Treatment Overview
Dr. Jarrell will perform your treatment of Xeomin in Crescent Springs after careful evaluation. She will examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, and review your medical history. If you’re a suitable candidate, she will cleanse the area to be treated before the procedure. The appropriate Xeomin dose will then be injected into the treatment areas to relax the facial muscles. The injections typically do not take more than 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
Xeomin Recovery & Side Effects
Xeomin is an outpatient procedure with little to no downtime — you may resume most of your daily activities and work immediately. However, you should avoid strenuous workouts and direct sunlight for a day. The most common side effects are mild redness, swelling, tenderness, and bruising, which occur shortly after the procedure but generally resolve within a day or two.
Xeomin Results: Onset & Longevity
Results may start appearing within 4 days, with continued improvements for up to 2 weeks. The final results will generally last 3 to 4 months but may last as long as 6 months, following which you may need additional treatments. Dr. Jarrell will create a long-term treatment schedule to help you maintain smooth, youthful skin throughout the year.
