How it Works

What is Xeomin?

Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is an FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin that smooths dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause them.

What distinguishes Xeomin from every other neurotoxin on the market is its manufacturing process. Merz developed a proprietary purification step that removes the complexing proteins surrounding the active botulinum toxin molecule. The result is a "naked" formula: only the therapeutic component, nothing extra.

In practice, the clinical effect is virtually identical to Botox. The same experienced injectors, the same dosing logic, the same natural-looking results. The difference matters most for a specific patient profile: those who have used Botox for many years and have started noticing it wearing off sooner or working less consistently. Switching to a protein-free formula removes the antibody variable entirely.

What Xeomin Treats

  • Frown lines (glabellar 11s)
  • Forehead lines
  • Crow's feet
  • Bunny lines
  • Lip lines
  • Brow lift (off-label)

Why Some Patients Choose Xeomin

  • No accessory proteins. The only neurotoxin formulated without complexing proteins. For long-term neurotoxin users concerned about resistance, this matters.
  • 1:1 Botox conversion. If you know your Botox unit count, your Xeomin treatment is an exact numerical match. No guesswork, no adjustment period.
  • Lower price per unit. Xeomin is priced slightly below Botox per unit, which can add up over a full treatment.
  • Same providers, same results. Our team uses both formulas with equal precision. You get the same physician-directed care regardless of which product you choose.
  • Room temperature storage. Unlike Botox, Xeomin does not require refrigeration before reconstitution, which some providers see as a quality-consistency advantage.

The Process

What to expect

From your first consultation to your final results, here's how a Xeomin treatment at Florida Aesthetics and Wellness works.

1
Consultation

We review your aesthetic goals and your history with neurotoxins. If you're switching from Botox or Dysport, we'll explain the 1:1 conversion, set expectations for onset, and confirm Xeomin is the right choice for your situation.

2
Assessment & Mapping

Your provider assesses your facial muscles and expression patterns to determine the optimal injection points and unit count. We use conservative dosing for first-time patients to ensure natural, expressive results.

3
Treatment

The injection session takes 10 to 15 minutes. Fine needles mean minimal discomfort. Your injector will review aftercare: avoid vigorous exercise, excessive heat, and lying flat for 4 hours. You can resume normal daily activities immediately.

4
Results

Most patients notice the first softening within 3 to 5 days. Full results are visible by day 14. Results typically last 3 to 4 months. Schedule your next appointment at 12 to 16 weeks to maintain consistent results.

Common Questions

Xeomin FAQ

Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is the only neurotoxin formulated without accessory proteins, a property sometimes called the "naked" formula. Botox and Dysport both contain complexing proteins that accompany the active toxin. The clinical relevance is that some patients who have used Botox for many years develop antibodies to these accessory proteins, which can reduce effectiveness. Xeomin eliminates that variable entirely. In terms of effect on wrinkles, all three relax the targeted muscle and produce comparable results.
Xeomin is an excellent option for patients who have noticed Botox becoming less effective after years of use; patients who prefer a minimal-ingredient formula; patients switching from Dysport who want a 1:1 Botox-equivalent dosing; and first-time neurotoxin patients who want a clean starting point. It is not appropriate for patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have known hypersensitivity to botulinum toxin. Your provider will review your medical history at the consultation.
Most patients notice the first softening of movement within 3 to 5 days. Full results are visible by day 14. Xeomin's onset is comparable to Botox and slightly slower than Dysport, which often shows results in 2 to 3 days.
Xeomin results last 3 to 4 months for most patients. Maintenance touch-ups are typically scheduled every 12 to 16 weeks. Duration is similar to Botox and Dysport and depends on the area treated, the number of units used, and individual metabolism.
Yes, and the transition is straightforward. Xeomin units convert 1:1 to Botox units, so if you typically receive 40 units of Botox, you would receive the same dose with Xeomin. Many patients who have developed partial resistance to Botox report noticeably better results after switching. Your provider will review your history and guide the transition during your consultation.
Yes. Xeomin was approved by the FDA in 2011 for the treatment of glabellar lines (the vertical frown lines between the eyebrows) in adults. It is also used off-label for forehead lines, crow's feet, bunny lines, lip lines, and other facial areas, all with well-established safety and efficacy.
Most patients describe the injections as a small pinch. Numbing cream is available but usually not necessary given the fine needles used. The full treatment takes 10 to 15 minutes. You can return to normal activities immediately afterward. We recommend avoiding vigorous exercise, excessive heat, and lying flat for 4 hours post-treatment.
At Florida Aesthetics and Wellness, Xeomin is priced per unit. A typical full upper face treatment uses 40 to 60 units. We price by the unit so you pay only for what you need, and you will always know the exact unit count before any treatment begins. We also offer Botox if you prefer that option.
Xeomin has an established safety profile. Common and temporary side effects include mild redness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites. Rare side effects include temporary asymmetry or, in cases of poor placement, temporary eyelid drooping (ptosis). Serious adverse events are extremely rare when the product is administered by a trained provider. At Florida Aesthetics and Wellness, all injections are performed by experienced, physician-directed providers.
No. Allē is the loyalty program for Allergan Aesthetics products (Botox, Juvederm, Kybella, and Skinvive). Xeomin is manufactured by Merz and is not eligible for Allē points. If earning Allē rewards is a priority for you, Botox is the better choice for neurotoxin treatments. Both options are available at Florida Aesthetics and Wellness, and your provider can help you decide.
