How does

XEOmin Work?

Xeomin, offered at Reforma Dermatology in Staten Island and Brooklyn, NY is a noninvasive injectable treatment designed to combat common signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Similar to Botox and Dysport, Xeomin contains botulinum toxin type A, which temporarily relaxes facial muscles. By blocking nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions, Xeomin reduces the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements. This treatment is especially effective on frown lines between the eyebrows, crow's feet, and other facial creases resulting from years of facial expressions.

One of Xeomin's key distinctions from Botox is its chemical formulation. Xeomin is considered a "naked" neurotoxin because it contains only botulinum toxin A, while Botox includes additional proteins and additives. This difference can make Xeomin less likely to cause allergic reactions and resistance over time. Xeomin is known for its natural and subtle results, and when administered by a skilled healthcare provider, it avoids creating a frozen or unnatural appearance.

Xeomin is a versatile treatment that addresses not only facial wrinkles but also various cosmetic concerns, including chin dimples, drooping smile corners, soft jawline definition, and excessive gum exposure when smiling. It can be used for medical purposes as well, such as treating migraines, muscle spasms, eyelid spasms, and excessive sweating. Xeomin is safe and effective for all skin types, provided the patient is in good overall health and over the age of 18. Results typically become visible within three to five days and can last three to four months, with the option for repeat injections to maintain the desired look. Combining Xeomin with other treatments like dermal fillers or peels can enhance results and better meet individual cosmetic goals.

Treatment Aftercare
XEOMIN

After receiving Xeomin treatment, it's essential to follow proper aftercare to ensure the best results and minimize any potential side effects. Here are some post-treatment guidelines to keep in mind:
1
Avoid Touching the Treated Area: Refrain from touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 12 hours after the procedure. This helps prevent the Xeomin from spreading to unintended muscles.
2
Stay Upright: For the first four hours following the treatment, avoid lying down or bending over. This minimizes the risk of Xeomin spreading to unintended areas.
3
Skip Vigorous Exercise: Avoid strenuous physical activity and exercise for the first 24 hours post-treatment. Sweating and increased blood flow can potentially affect the results.
4
Avoid Alcohol: Refrain from consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours after the procedure, as alcohol can increase the risk of bruising.
5
Be Gentle with Your Skin: Be gentle when cleansing and applying skincare products to the treated area. Avoid harsh scrubbing or exfoliation for a few days.
6
Use Sunscreen: Protect your skin from direct sunlight and use sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher when outdoors. Sun exposure can worsen the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
7
Follow Up: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments as recommended by your healthcare provider to assess the results and determine if any touch-up treatments are needed.
8
Be Patient: Results from Xeomin typically start to become visible within three to five days, with the full effects appearing within 10 days. Be patient and allow your skin time to adjust.
Remember, these are general guidelines, and it's crucial to follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal results.

I’ve struggled with eczema all my life and the various amounts of creams/ointments given to me by other places never helped enough. Dr.Patel is the only dermatologist I have met that explained everything to me clearly so I understood my issue clearly and gave me other options. My hands have never looked so clear in my life. Super happy with his service and his whole office is very nice/professional. Highly recommend!

- Mariah C

Dr. Patel is very knowledgeable and helpful. First time I went in he spotted my problem just by looking and immediately assigned me treatment. After following his regiment for a couple of months, it has completely healed. He also was able to check several other areas and prescribed medications for those areas. I highly recommend.

- Geoffrey W.

I started suffering from hormonal acne last October and visited many different dermatologists to find a sustainable solution. Dr. Patel is the only doctor who was committed to healing my skin. He saw me every 2 weeks to monitor my treatment and had effectively cleared my skin since I began seeing him in February! I am extremely grateful for him and his entire practice.

- Emily S.

I am very happy I found Dr. Patel he knew right away my hair loss issue, diagnosed it and began the treatment regiment. He is so knowledgeable and takes good care of you. I’ve seen rapid results in just 2 visits.The front desk staff are courteous and professional as well, and the wait times are very minimal. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Patel for your all your skin concerns, you won’t be disappointed.

- Christina A.

Dr. Patel is amazing. Not only is he great, but he will resolve any issues presented to him. I first came to see him for some skin tags and moles I wanted to remove, which he did. Also, I brought in my mother who was suffering from furuncle … something i’ve never heard from, but Dr. Patel recommended some medicine and my mom skin has cleared up 100%. I love his extreme intelligence and ambition to help with any dermatology issue. I would definitely recommend Dr. Patel to anyone dealing with any skin issue.
