At Exquisite Dentistry, we proudly choose Xeomin® as our neuromodulator of choice for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. Xeomin is a uniquely “naked” injectable, meaning it contains no unnecessary additives—just the purified botulinum toxin type A. This clean formulation reduces the risk of developing resistance over time, allowing for consistent, natural-looking results. Many of our patients appreciate Xeomin’s precision and purity, making it a trusted alternative to Botox for those seeking refreshed, youthful-looking skin without compromise.
Xeomin is a cosmetic injectable that uses a purified form of botulinum toxin type A to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles by blocking nerve signals to muscles, thus preventing muscle contractions.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
What it is:
Xeomin is a neuromodulator, similar to Botox, but with a slightly different formulation.
How it works:
It works by blocking the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which is responsible for transmitting signals from nerves to muscles. When these signals are blocked, the muscles relax, and the appearance of wrinkles caused by muscle movement is reduced.
What it's used for:
Xeomin is FDA-approved to treat glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows), as well as other dynamic wrinkles like forehead lines and crow's feet.
"Naked Botox":
Xeomin is sometimes referred to as "naked Botox" because it doesn't contain the same complexing proteins that Botox does.
Benefits:
Xeomin can provide a smoother, more youthful appearance by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and lines.
Duration of Results:
The results of Xeomin injections typically last for a few months.
Side Effects:
As with any injectable treatment, Xeomin can cause some side effects, such as pain, bruising, or redness at the injection site. More serious side effects are rare but can include problems with breathing, swallowing, or speaking.
Xeomin for Aesthetic Injections
At Exquisite Dentistry, we use Xeomin® to help our patients achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance with natural-looking results. Xeomin works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles responsible for expression lines—such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. Its uniquely purified formula contains no unnecessary proteins, reducing the risk of resistance over time and making it an ideal choice for those seeking a clean, effective approach to aesthetic enhancements. With Xeomin, you can enjoy refreshed, subtle results that enhance your natural beauty without looking overdone.
Xeomin for TMJ & Bruxism
Beyond aesthetics, Xeomin® is an effective treatment for patients suffering from TMJ dysfunction and bruxism (teeth grinding). By relaxing the overactive jaw muscles—particularly the masseter muscle—Xeomin helps to relieve jaw tension, reduce pain, and protect the teeth from excessive wear. This therapeutic use can lead to improved comfort, better sleep, and even subtle facial slimming for some patients. Xeomin’s clean, precise formulation allows for targeted relief without unwanted side effects, making it a trusted solution for both medical and cosmetic concerns.
