What is Xeomin?
Similar to Botox, Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription injectable medication that contains a purified form of botulinum toxin type A.
Xeomin works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that signals muscles to contract. This temporary paralysis of the muscles reduces muscle activity and smooths out wrinkles.
Xeomin is similar to other botulinum toxin injections, such as Botox and Dysport. However, it has a different molecular structure and may provide longer-lasting results.
