XEOMIN® – MERZ

1. Uses of Xeomin Botox

Xeomin Botox is an injectable treatment that contains botulinum toxin type A, a protein produced by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. When injected into the muscles, the botulinum toxin reduces muscle contractions, helping to diminish the appearance of wrinkles and crow’s feet on the face.

Xeomin Botox is used to treat areas such as the chin, forehead, eyes, and nose. This product can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and crow’s feet within a few days after application.

2. Ingredients of Xeomin Botox

Xeomin Botox primarily contains botulinum toxin type A, derived from the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. This product does not contain any complex proteins, which helps minimize the risk of allergic reactions and side effects.

3. How to Use Xeomin Botox

Before using Xeomin, you should consult with a physician to ensure safety and effectiveness. The doctor will inject Xeomin directly into the wrinkled areas to reduce muscle contractions and minimize wrinkles.

The injection process typically takes between 10 to 20 minutes and does not require downtime. However, to achieve optimal results, you should follow these guidelines:

• Avoid using other medications for 24 hours after the Xeomin injection.
• Do not massage the injected area for 24 hours post-injection.
• Avoid alcohol consumption and smoking for 24 hours after the injection.
• Refrain from engaging in physical activities or putting pressure on the injected skin for 24 hours after the injection.

4. Precautions When Using Xeomin Botox

When using Xeomin, you need to be aware of the following to ensure safety and minimize potential side effects:

• Avoid using Xeomin if you have recently taken antibiotics or muscle relaxants.
• Do not use Xeomin if you have previously experienced an allergic reaction to botulinum toxin type A or any components of Xeomin.
• Do not use Xeomin if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• If you are using Xeomin for the first time, provide your physician with detailed health information to ensure safe usage.
