What Is Xeomin®?
Xeomin® is a double-filtered injectable that targets wrinkles in the upper facial region. Similar to Botox®, Xeomin® is a fast-acting kind of neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes facial muscles to reduce facial lines and wrinkles for 3 to 4 months.
Xeomin® is only injected in the forehead, brow region, and around the eyes. These treatments are ideal for patients who desire less-visible brow wrinkles, crow's feet, bunny lines, and/or frown lines.
How Does Xeomin® Work?
Xeomin® works by temporarily blocking your muscles' ability to contract, smoothing out the surface of your skin and smoothing out unwanted wrinkles, lines, and other signs of aging. These wrinkle-relaxing injectables are particularly effective against dynamic wrinkles, which appear alongside facial movements such as smiling, squinting, or laughing.
The Benefits of Xeomin®
Xeomin® is purified and specially formulated to remove unnecessary accessory proteins, which help the body respond consistently to treatment over time. In addition, Xeomin®'s unique 3-ingredient formula makes it a popular treatment option among patients with previous reactions to medications, Botox® resistance, or sensitivities to added proteins found in other neuromodulators.
Xeomin® is quickly becoming well-known in dermatology for being:
- Fast-Acting: Results are noticeable within 3 to 4 days following treatment
- Long-Lasting: Results tend to last anywhere between 3 and 4 months
- Budget-Friendly: While pricing varies, Xeomin® is generally less expensive than alternative treatment options
- Purified: Xeomin®'s 3-ingredient formula is popular among patients who are worried about reduced effectiveness, and unnecessary proteins.

A Simple 3-Ingredient Formula
Xeomin®'s formula is groundbreakingly simple. Once the medication is created, all of the inactive byproducts are filtered out to create an injection that is straightforward and pure. At the end of the process, the injection only contains three key ingredients.
Botulinum toxin type A (incobotulinumtoxinA)
Botulinum toxin type A is the main active ingredient in our Xeomin® injections. This protein is used by many contemporary injectables to block nerve signals in the face, relaxing facial muscles and reducing dynamic wrinkles for a short period of time.
Human Albumin
Human Albumin is a naturally occurring protein found in human blood. In Xeomin®, it serves as an inactive ingredient that helps stabilize the medication.
Sucrose
Sucrose is a type of sugar that helps protect the injectable during production and storage.
What's Not Included
Unlike other neuromodulators, Xeomin® does not contain unnecessary accessory or complexing proteins. Over time, repeated exposure to certain therapeutic proteins may contribute to a reduced treatment response in some patients. Because Xeomin® is formulated without these accessory proteins, this risk may be decreased.
