Xeomin injections
Xeomin, Xeomin is a new generation botulinum toxin from Merz Aesthetics, which reduces expression lines, leaving the face natural without causing a mask effect.
Like other botulinum toxin preparations, Xeomin blocks the conduction of nerve impulses to muscles. As a result, the muscles relax and the wrinkles above them are smoothed.
A distinctive feature of Botox and Dysport is that Xeomin has a gentle effect without switching off the muscle completely. This is justified in cases where it is necessary to maintain natural facial expressions.
