What Is XEOMIN?

XEOMIN is an FDA-approved injectable containing incobotulinumtoxinA, a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. It works by temporarily relaxing the small muscles that cause moderate to severe frown lines between the brows. XEOMIN doesn't contain accessory proteins, which is why it's sometimes called a "naked" formulation. For many patients, that translates to a naturally well-rested appearance.

Benefits of XEOMIN

Am I a Good Candidate for XEOMIN?

Good candidates are typically adults who want a subtle softening of frown lines while keeping their natural expression. XEOMIN may not be appropriate for those who are pregnant or nursing, have certain neuromuscular conditions, or have had an allergic reaction to botulinum toxin products in the past. The clinical team will review your history and goals at your consultation to confirm XEOMIN is the right choice.

What to Expect During XEOMIN Treatment

Preparing for Treatment

Before your treatment begins, the clinical team will confirm your goals and review the areas to be treated. The skin is thoroughly cleansed, and a topical numbing agent can be applied if you'd like extra comfort during the injections.

The Injection Process

Using a fine needle, the clinical team places small, precise amounts of XEOMIN into the targeted muscles. The process usually takes just a few minutes.

Immediately After

Most patients return to normal activities right away. Ice may be applied briefly, and the team will review simple aftercare guidance before you leave.

XEOMIN Recovery

There is little to no downtime after XEOMIN treatment. Some patients notice mild redness, slight swelling, or small bruises at the injection sites, which typically fade within a few days.

Strenuous exercise and lying flat are generally best avoided for several hours after treatment. Your clinical team will provide aftercare instructions specific to your treatment plan.

XEOMIN Results

Results typically begin to appear within a few days and continue developing over the following one to two weeks. Many patients enjoy smoother frown lines for three to four months, though individual results vary based on muscle strength, metabolism, and treatment history.

XEOMIN FAQs

How is XEOMIN different from other neuromodulators like Botox or Dysport?

XEOMIN is a 'naked' formulation, meaning it doesn't contain the accessory proteins found in some other neuromodulators. Some providers see this as an advantage for patients who may build resistance to other formulas over time.

Does XEOMIN hurt?

Most patients describe a quick pinch. A numbing agent can be applied beforehand if you prefer.

How long does a XEOMIN appointment take?

Injections take just a few minutes. Plan for about thirty minutes total, including consultation and aftercare instructions.

Will XEOMIN make my face look frozen or unnatural?

No. XEOMIN softens expression lines while preserving natural movement, so your face still looks like you, just more relaxed.

Can XEOMIN be combined with other treatments?

Yes. XEOMIN is often paired with dermal fillers, skin resurfacing, or other non-surgical treatments as part of a broader plan.

What should I avoid before my XEOMIN appointment?

Blood thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen, alcohol, and fish oil supplements can increase bruising, so it's best to avoid them for about a week before treatment if possible. Let the clinical team know about any medications you take.

Does insurance cover XEOMIN?

XEOMIN is considered a cosmetic treatment, so it's typically not covered by insurance. Ask about financing options at your consultation.
