Botox & Xeomin
Botox & Xeomin temporarily improve the appearance of both moderate to severe frown lines between the brows and moderate to severe crow’s feet in adults
Wrinkles result from a combination of many factors. It’s not just about cellular changes, collagen depletion, or damage caused by free radicals. When you frown or concentrate, the muscles between your brows contract, causing your skin to furrow and fold. And when you squint, the muscles around your eyes contract and cause crow’s feet.
How does Botox work?
Botox works beneath the skin’s surface and targets the underlying muscle activity that causes frown lines and crow’s feet to form over time. Botox is injected into the muscles that cause frown lines and crow’s feet lines, temporarily reducing the activity of those muscles. Botox blocks the release of a substance called acetylcholine. This reduces muscle activity that causes moderate to severe wrinkles to form.
What is Xeomin?
Xeomin is the newest “frown fixer” pronounced zee-oh-min. The new injectable acts like its predecessor Botox, in reducing and preventing contractions of the muscle injected. Xeomin contains botulinum toxin A, a protein purified from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. For some patients, this protein is more effective and longer lasting.
