Why do I have frown lines?

Frown lines can give you an angry, tired or worried look. When you squint or frown, the muscles between your eyebrows contract, causing the skin to furrow and fold. Over time, as your skin ages and loses some of its elasticity, these repeated muscle contractions can cause persistent and deep frown lines.

How does Xeomin works?

XEOMIN is a US FDA approved anti-wrinkle treatment that is injected into muscles to temporarily reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines in between the eyebrows (also known as angry ‘11’s or glabellar lines).

Botulinum toxin type A – the active ingredient in XEOMIN – acts on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibers from contracting. By reducing these contractions, XEOMIN can temporarily reduce the lines between your eyebrows giving you a well-rested and youthful look.

It can also be used to reduce lines on the forehead and wrinkles on the corner of the eyes (crow’s feet).

What’s the difference of XEOMIN with other anti-wrinkle injections like BOTOX and Dysport?

XEOMIN, BOTOX and Dysport are different brands that contain botulinum toxin type A. The difference lies on how they are made as the manufacturing process of each brand is slightly different.

XEOMIN is known as a “naked injectable”. This means it does not contain any additives or other proteins. It is a highly purified neurotoxin made through a unique precision manufacturing process that isolates and removes the accessory proteins that don't play an active role in treatment.

Since XEOMIN does not contain other proteins and additives, your body is less likely to develop antibodies for it which also means lower risk of allergic reactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, XEOMIN is US FDA approved for frown lines in 2011. XEOMIN was proven effective in two clinical trials consisting of 547 healthy adult patients with an average age of 46 years. Each patient received 20 units of XEOMIN.

After 30 days, XEOMIN significantly improved the appearance of frown lines following the first injection, when compared to placebo.

You may begin to see visible smoothing as early as 3-4 days after injection. However, the full effects can be seen after two weeks and the results can last at least 3 months in clinical trials but may last significantly longer or shorter in individual patients.

Similar to other injectable procedures, the common side effects of XEOMIN include redness, swelling and bruising on the injection site. Other side effects may also include dizziness and headache.

Looking plastic or overdone is a common concern among individuals considering an in-office treatment for moderate to severe frown lines. Looking overdone is a question of dosing and is preventable. We at Cutis are focused on natural looking outcomes and always start with a conservative dose and then add after a review, if required.
