About Xeomin
Xeomin is an injectable option for the treatment of hyperfunctional frown lines (the deep lines between the eyebrows).
Xeomin is similar to the well-known Botox and Dysport products that are provided as a series of small injections around the area of frown lines and wrinkles. By temporally blocking the signal between the nerve ending and the target muscle, Xeomin and the other neuromodulators relax the muscle and the skin lines in the affected area.
Differences Between Botox and Xeomin
There are subtle differences between Botox Cosmetic and Xeomin. However, these naturally occurring proteins have ‘presumably inactive" surrounding proteins which are stripped away and, thus, Xeomin represents the purified form of the active protein. In theory, this product would be less likely to produce ‘blocking antibodies" that could result, with repeated treatments, in an incomplete or no response to the drug. In practice, very few cosmetic surgery patients have ever developed blocking antibodies to any of the available neuromodulators – in other words, the theoretical advantage has demonstrated no clinical importance.
If you are considering an alternative to Botox or Dysport or you are a patient new to treatment of lines around the face, please contact our office for a consultation. Xeomin appears to be a suitable alternative to the two other products providing improvement in hyperfunctional facial lines.
Belotero Filler
Belotero Balance is a hyaluronic acid-based, smooth gel injectable filler ideal for restoring a more youthful, vibrant appearance. This filler may be used to smooth facial wrinkles and lines like smile lines. It can also be used to improve acne scars and other skin imperfections and add volume to the lips. Belotero is different from other injectable fillers as it has been specifically formulated to integrate into the skin and mold to the patient’s distinct facial contours.
Ideal Candidates for Belotero
Anyone seeking immediate improvement of facial lines and wrinkles may be candidates for treatment with Belotero in Sacramento. This skin treatment is ideal for improving fine lines and wrinkles that lie close to the skin’s surface, including vertical lines above the mouth associated with smoking. Belotero can also improve volume loss around the mouth, acne scars and another scarring, and other skin imperfections.
What Happens During the Treatment?
Treatment with Belotero is a quick procedure performed in the office setting. Depending on the number of areas treated, the procedure may take fifteen to twenty minutes to complete. To ensure patient comfort, a topical numbing cream is applied at the injection site. A fine needle is then used to inject Belotero beneath the skin. Ice and pressure are applied after injection to help reduce the risk of bruising. Some minor swelling is common at the injection site. This typically subsides within an hour or two after treatment. Some patients also experience mild to moderate bruising after this injectable filler, particularly if they tend to bruise easily. Patients can return to work immediately if they choose.
