Comprehensive Xeomin® injections to treat Forehead (frown Lines), and Crows Feet (smile lines).
If you’re considering Xeomin® as part of your antiaging solution, you’ve come to the right place. As one of the most used and widely recognized brands in the world of skin care, Xeomin® is a safe and effective way to smooth skin and relax facial muscles. Our team at the Ottawa Medical Vitality Clinic consists of a physician with more than 25 years of experience in providing Xeomin® services and other medical spa treatments.
A Xeomin® treatment can smooth lines between your eyebrows as well as eliminate forehead fine lines and wrinkles giving your features a more youthful appearance. This is achieved by injecting botulinum toxin type A into the targeted area, temporarily paralyzing or “freezing” specific muscles. Xeomin® is a safe and effective muscle relaxer that is used by millions of people in Canada and around the world every year. Unlike many surgical procedures used to get results, Xeomin® is minimally invasive and does not require any incisions or skin removal to achieve the desired results.
Xeomin® Cosmetic is an injectable treatment derived from a purified protein. It is manufactured under strict quality control standards and then injected into a hyperactive muscle as a neuromodulator. It will block the nerve impulses from reaching that muscle without affecting the sensory nerves. So, the target muscle relaxes, smoothing out the wrinkles caused by repeated contractions.
By relieving hyperactivity, Xeomin® gives the face a relaxed, refreshed appearance. The procedure is so simple and quick that patients often do it on their lunch hour. More than two million women and men in North America have used Xeomin® to eliminate tension that misrepresents them.
A tiny amount of Xeomin® Cosmetic is injected, very precisely, into the muscles being treated. Discomfort is minimal, and no sedation or anaesthetic is required. You can resume normal activities immediately. Some patients experience a slight temporary redness at the injection site, but this can be covered with make-up. The effects of Xeomin® Cosmetic usually last three to four months. After several treatments, the effects of Xeomin® Cosmetic may begin to last longer.
If you’re interested in a Xeomin® procedure, you’ll first want to have a consultation with the trained and experienced Ottawa Medical Vitality Clinic staff to be sure we have a great understanding of your goals, areas of concern, and any allergies you may have. Once we determine that Xeomin® is a great option for you, we can schedule your appointment. During the procedure, you’ll likely feel a poking or pinching sensation, and can expect to experience some minor swelling or bruising after the procedure. Maximum results are typically seen after about 2 weeks and last around 3-4 months for best results.
There are a few restrictions regarding Xeomin® Cosmetic treatments. Patients who are pregnant or nursing, or have a neurologic disease should not be treated. You can get a free and informative consultation at Ottawa Medical Vitaltiy Clinc.
Dr. John O. Lee always recommends a conservative dose to create a natural, relaxed and alert appearance. By discussing your personal concerns and goals, he determines the right dose and injection technique for you. The treatment only relaxes the muscle beneath the frown line at the injection site, so the other elements of facial expression remain active. It also has no effect on the sensory nerves, so you will have normal feeling in the treated area.
