Xeomin®

Botox® is one of the most widely known brands of botulinum toxin injections. Botulinum toxins are neurotoxins that affect nerves and cause muscle weakening.  You might get a botulinum toxin injection for cosmetic or medical reasons. Healthcare providers inject small amounts of Botox into specific muscles to smooth wrinkles, prevent migraine headaches, and treat a wide range of other health conditions.

Botox cosmetic injections are used to address signs of aging. This treatment can smooth fine lines and wrinkles in several areas of your face, including your:

• Eyebrows
• Forehead
• Nose
• Eyes (crow's feet)
• Lips
• Chin
• Jawline
• Neck

Botox has been used for decades in the medical industry to treat medical conditions and to help reduce pain.  Botox blocks nerve signals that control muscle activity, resulting in relaxation and pain relief.  Botox injections have been successful in treating: 

• Chronic Migraines
• TMJ Dysfunction
• Eye Twitching
• Excessive Muscle Contractions (Dystonia)
• Back & Neck Pain
• Jaw Pain

A neuromodulating protein, botox has been approved by the FDA for treating wrinkles at three select areas along the face: 

• Frontalis muscle – “worry lines” across the forehead.
• Orbicularis oculi muscle – “crow’s feet” along the outer eye portions.
• Procerus and corrugator muscles – “elevens” between eyebrows.

Botox only has three (3) ingredients!

• OnabotulinumtoxinA – the neuromuscular blocker for limiting muscle contractions.
• Human albumin – a common transport protein naturally found in the body.
• Sodium chloride – the very same you’d find in a kitchen!
