Most people think about Botox® when removing wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet around the eyes. But do you know that there is a similarly effective product that can be an alternative source of botulinum toxin injections? Oregon Derm Center offers Xeomin® injections in McMinnville, Oregon, and here are more information about this cosmetic treatment.

What are Xeomin® Injections?

Xeomin® is the brand name for prescription medication injected into the muscles to temporarily remove moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows in adults. It also treats wrinkles and crow’s feet, and made of the same active ingredient in Botox® called botulinum toxin. The safety and efficacy of Xeomin® in children younger than 18 years old is unknown.

Xeomin® injections are also approved by the US FDA for the treatment of cervical dystonia or blepharospasm in adults. When compared to its competitors, Xeomin® is the only one that does not need refrigeration, making it easier distribute around America. The results of the injection will start to show after one week and can last for three to six months.

Who are Eligible for a Xeomin® Treatment?

Oregon Derma Center offers Xeomin® injections in McMinnville, Oregon,  if you have wrinkles around your eyes, crow’s feet, frown or forehead lines, or any combination of these. The injections will help smoothen them temporarily and will make you look less fatigued and more relaxed. You can still have Xeomin® even after an unsuccessful Botox® treatment.

If you have multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton syndrome, or an infection at the injection site, you shouldn’t use Xeomin®. You should also refrain from getting this treatment if you have a neurological condition, a history of transient paralysis, loss of eyesight, or double vision. These conditions may exacerbate an underlying ailment and raise the chance of problems with a Xeomin® injection.

How Does it Work?

The entire Xeomin® treatment only takes ten minutes. Our doctor will clean the targeted region before asking you to flinch, grin, or show surprise if you are getting cosmetic injections. You will stimulate the muscles that are going to be injected by making these facial gestures. Using a washable pen, our expert will mark the injection sites before starting the treatment, which typically involves five to twenty injections.

Majority of patients report that the process is quite bearable. The results will depend on the area of treatment. The wrinkle reduction and other improvements usually lasts three to four months.
