The FDA approved Xeomin for treating the wrinkles between the eyebrows, sometimes referred to as the \u201c11\u2019s\u201d and keeps those muscles from fully contracting, thereby reducing wrinkling.<br \/>\nThe product has been used around the world since 2005 and was introduced to the United States by Merz Pharmaceuticals in 2010. \u00a0In the past, it has been used to treat adult cervical dystonia, decreasing their neck pain and abnormal head positions as well as being used for patients with abnormal eyelid spasms.<\/p>\n<p>Xeomin works in basically the same way as Botox and Dysport, but there are a couple of differences. \u00a0Xeomin does not have the additives that Botox and Dysport use, and therefore may lessen a patient\u2019s likelihood of developing antibodies to it. \u00a0If your body discovers a foreign invader, it would typically respond by creating antibodies and launching an attack. \u00a0This could prevent a neurotoxin such a botulinum toxin type A, from having its desired effect. \u00a0Xeomin does not contain any other ingredients other than the active botulinum toxin type A . \u00a0Like Botox, Xeomin takes about a week for the results to be fully realized, and once this occurs, results last between 3-6 months.<\/p>\n<p>According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, there were about 2.5 million Botox and Dysport procedures in 2010 alone, so there is no doubt there is demand for these wrinkle -reducing procedures. \u00a0As with all cosmetic procedures, please seek out an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon if you are considering facial injections.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information about Xeomin or to schedule a consultation, please call <a href=\"\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grand Rapids Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Steven Ringler<\/a> at 616.328.8800<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In July, the FDA approved Xeomin (Z-O-MIN) as the latest botulinum toxin type A treatment to help reduce wrinkles. \u00a0Joining Botox and Dysport, Xeomin works on the same principle as both of the other products by temporarily blocking the signals from the nerves to muscles.
