Botox® and Xeomin® are both neurotoxins that are used to provide cosmetic benefits. These substances can be injected into the facial muscles to help reduce the signs of aging. While having slight differences, they are both incredibly popular in the world of cosmetics.
*Individual Results May Vary
Neurotoxins are FDA-approved solutions that can be made of chemicals, or naturally occurring. The solution is injected into the muscles, causing them to relax. This results in aesthetic benefits. In short, neurotoxins are able to target muscle contraction stimulation to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles.
According to the International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine, the main difference is the production style for the two neurotoxins. Xeomin® is purified during the production process to ensure that it is separated from proteins. In contrast, during the production of Botox® antibodies proteins are added.
The main difference between the two is that Xeomin® contains just one ingredient: botulinum toxin A. Xeomin® is also considered to be a pure substance. It contains no additives and as such, there is a limited chance that patients will experience allergic reactions. However, Xeomin® will also take longer to show results. Botox® will start to show results in 72 hours while Xeomin® will take approximately 4 days to deliver desired results.
There are numerous similarities between these two neurotoxins. For instance, both are administered in similar ways and do require the support of a licensed medical professional.
They can also both be used for other medical conditions as well although Botox® is more widely used for other conditions. The treatment time is also the same for both and they each need to be repeated every three months or so for the best results.
There are numerous benefits of neurotoxin treatments like Botox® or Xeomin®. This treatment is quick and efficient with virtually no recovery time. It can help with forehead lines, frown lines, eyebrow lift, crows feet, bunny lines, a downward mouth, TMJ, slimming the jawline, orange peel appearance in the chin, flipping the upper lip up, neck bands, amd more.
You could be a candidate for either Botox® or Xeomin® if you have dynamic lines and are eager to achieve a more youthful appearance. Indeed, both treatments can ensure that you look younger. If you feel self-conscious about your appearance, either treatment could benefit you.
