Revitalize Your Appearance: Discover Xeomin Wrinkle Treatment

Are you aware of the development of fine lines and wrinkles on the face? Well, take it easy and relax! With treatments like Xeomin injections, your aging skin can be smoothed away! As men and women age, the skin begins to display the outward signs of aging with the development of wrinkles and folds, with deep frown lines being one of the most prominent and common complaints. Dr. Jeanine Downie, a board-certified dermatologist in Montclair, New Jersey, is excited to offer expert treatment for facial wrinkles at her practice, image Dermatology® P.C. Let’s learn about Xeomin as a key component of her patients’ anti-aging regimens.

What type of lines and wrinkles can develop on the face?

There are two types of wrinkles in dermatological terms:

  • Static wrinkles—Static or fixed wrinkles form due to sagging skin, regardless of facial muscular movements. Dermal fillers are a popular remedy for static wrinkles.
  • Dynamic wrinkles – On the other hand, dynamic or moving wrinkles develop due to recurrent muscle contractions. Regular facial expressions, such as squinting or frowning, draw the surface skin into creases, eventually causing the skin to lose its elasticity.

What are the benefits of using Xeomin wrinkle treatment?

Dr. Downie offers facial wrinkle treatment using Xeomin, developed from a highly purified protein injected at precise facial points to prevent muscle contractions.

What should I expect from recovery after Xeomin injections?

We advise patients to avoid exercising or lying down for four to six hours after the injections have been administered.

Reasons why Dr. Downie’s patients prefer Xeomin, an FDA-approved treatment:

  • It’s fast and easy. The injections take just a few minutes using a fine needle and are typically performed with a topical numbing paste to vasoconstrict the area to achieve less bruising.
  • There is no recovery time. You can return to your usual activities immediately after your visit. Serious side effects are rare; Dr. Downie will discuss these with you.
  • Effective. Xeomin is a fast-acting treatment. Depending on the treatment area, you can see improvements as early as the next day, with noticeable changes within five days and the full effect in ten days.
  • Long-lasting results. The rejuvenated look is retained for about three to four months. Most patients schedule a touch-up within this period to ensure continued results. Over time, fewer products and injections are required as the muscles remain relaxed.
  • Versatile. In addition to frown lines, Xeomin can be used on several other facial areas affected by muscle contractions. This treatment can be utilized alone or with other non-invasive rejuvenation techniques. Xeomin is also beneficial for patients with hyperhidrosis as it can address excessive sweating.

BOTOX: Your Questions Answered

What’s the difference between Xeomin and Botox?

Think of Xeomin and Botox as siblings with similar traits but unique personalities. Both are neurotoxins used to relax wrinkles, but Xeomin is like the minimalist sibling in comparison. Xeomin contains no additives, just the active ingredient. This purity is considered a bonus for our patients at image Dermatology® P.C. who might have any sensitivities.

Will my face look frozen, or can I still tell jokes with expressive eyebrows?

There’s no need to worry about looking like a statue! Xeomin injections are customizable, meaning Dr. Jeanine Downie tailors the treatment to soften lines while keeping your natural expressions intact. You’ll still be able to raise those eyebrows in surprise or flash a genuine, natural-looking smile.

Does Xeomin only work on wrinkles?

Xeomin is definitely considered a multitasking injection! While it is famous for smoothing out frown lines, it is also sometimes used to address medical conditions like excessive sweating or muscle spasms. It has been utilized for many years in the medical field for more than just controlling fine lines and wrinkles.

Will I look 21 again, or just a refreshed version of myself?

Xeomin injections focus on subtle, natural enhancements. They are not a “magic wand” for time travel. The goal is to diminish wrinkles so you look more relaxed and rejuvenated, like you just got back from a serene vacation!

How long do Xeomin results last—do I need to clear my calendar regularly for additional treatments?

Results typically last three to four months, depending on factors like your metabolism and lifestyle. Think of it as a refreshing reset, not a frequent chore. Plus, the treatments are quick and simple, allowing you to get in and out without much interruption to your day. We recommend that after treatment, you avoid exercising for at least six hours and keep your head up for at least four hours.

What does it feel like—are Xeomin injections painful?

The injections are relatively quick and painless, with a tiny pinch here and there to achieve the desired results. Some of our image Dermatology® P.C. patients compare it to a small mosquito bite. If you are needle-shy, Dr. Downie can use numbing cream to make you feel extra comfortable.

Can I still treat myself to my favorite skincare products after Xeomin?

Absolutely! Xeomin won’t interfere with your beloved serums and creams. Just avoid harsh skin care treatments like chemical peels for a short time post-injection. All neuromodulators, including Xeomin, can be used with your favorite skincare products, including sunblock. As a matter of fact, we stress that good skin care enhances Xeomin results and can also be used post-strong chemical peels. Your routine can continue to glow right alongside your smoother skin!

Hey instagram fans! Happy Friday! Here you can see X marks the spot, it is another toxin that I use in addition to using Botox. My patient used Botox for a while and then it stopped doing what it really needed to do. So, then we moved to Xeomin and Xeomin is kicking in and taking over, so we are using some Xeomin. It relaxes the organs. If you never have the line you won’t get the dent and that would look mad and you don’t need to look mad so it is a good thing. One of my favorite fillers, do a little bit in the cheeks, bit in the forehead a tiny little bit, refresh and relax, make my patients look a little bit younger and a lot less stressed. So that is what we are about this Friday morning, please watch and enjoy!
