Xeomin
Xeomin is a neurotoxin injectable that works similarly to Botox, but with one key difference. It's a "naked" neurotoxin, meaning it contains no accessory proteins.
For some clients, this means a lower risk of developing resistance over time, making it a great alternative or addition to their injectable routine.

What is Xeomin?
Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is an FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin that relaxes the facial muscles causing expression lines. Because it contains no additives or complexing proteins, Xeomin is sometimes called the 'naked' neurotoxin. It's a great option for clients who have been on Botox for years and feel their results aren't lasting as long as they used to, as well as for those who simply prefer a cleaner formulation.

Care
No downtime. Avoid lying flat or intense exercise for 4–6 hours. Don't massage or press on treated areas for the rest of the day. Results appear gradually over 3–7 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Xeomin and Botox?
Both are botulinum toxin type A injectables that work the same way. The main difference is formulation: Xeomin has no accessory proteins, which may reduce the chance of developing resistance with long-term use.
Is Xeomin right for me if Botox has stopped working as well?
Possibly. Some clients develop antibodies to Botox's accessory proteins over time, reducing effectiveness. Xeomin's purified formula is worth trying in those cases. Your provider can assess this at your consultation.
Does Xeomin cost the same as Botox?
Pricing varies. Reach out or book a consultation and we'll walk you through current pricing for both options.
