Crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines are some of the most visible signs of aging, and they can leave you looking older, tired, or unhappy. With anti-aging injectables like Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport, you can smooth the years away and enjoy a refreshed, more youthful appearance. These injectables are some of the most effective treatments, and our board-certified surgeons at B + A Medical Aesthetics are proud to offer them at our comfortable, modern Austin clinic.

How do Botox® and Xeomin® work?

Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport are FDA-approved anti-aging injectables designed to soften lines and wrinkles caused by frequent muscle movements. The active ingredient in Botox® and Xeomin® is a neuromodulator that halts muscle motions by interrupting the signals from nerves to muscles. It is injected in tiny quantities into specific muscle strands, for a noticeable smoothing effect – you can look years younger, refreshed, and rejuvenated, no surgery required.

What can Botox®, Xeomin®, or Dysport injections do for my look?

The groundbreaking science behind these injectables can help minimize the appearance of:

Crow’s feet
Moderate-to-severe forehead lines and creases
Frown lines between your brows

Your Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport treatment package can also benefit you by smoothing the smile lines around your mouth or softening the look of a squarish, overdeveloped jawline. Our customized treatments are tailored to you and your desired outcome, so you can expect results that reflect your aesthetic vision.

The science behind Botox® and Xeomin®

Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport are botulinum-based injectable treatments. These neurotoxins block the release of chemicals that lead to muscle contractions and frequent twitching. As a result, targeted muscles relax, while the surrounding muscles continue to function normally. This effect allows your skin to smooth out where wrinkles and grooves form, but you can still make your natural expressions when injected by the professionals at B + A Medical Aesthetics.

How long does Botox® last?

Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport are long-lasting injectables. The team at B + A Medical Aesthetics usually find that optimal results last for about four months. However, you can experience even longer-lasting benefits if you are treating finer lines and wrinkles.

What is the difference between Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport?

The difference is that Xeomin® does not contain the added proteins in Botox®. Some people get better results with Xeomin® when Botox® stops producing the smoothing effect. This is the result of developing antibodies against the proteins in Botox®. Both products are excellent and have a similar effect. Which one is right for you?

Dysport is also a botulinum toxin that is injected similar to Botox and Xeomin. The unit dosage amounts are slightly different.

Does it hurt to get Botox® or Xeomin®?

Both Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport can cause a slight stinging or pinching sensation during the injections, but most people tolerate it easily. The practitioners at B + A Medical Aesthetics have extensive training in the precise injection points, and focus on ensuring your discomfort is minimal – and results that look entirely natural.

Botox/Xeomin/Dysport Post-Procedure Instructions

Remain in an upright position for 4 hours.
No massaging of the treated area for 24 hours. Washing your face or applying make-up is fine.
Please avoid a Clarisonic facial cleanser, have a facial, put your face in a massage cradle, or be face down for 24 hours after the treatment.
Exercise the treated area (wrinkle the forehead, smile, frown, etc.) every so often for 1-3 hours after treatment. This will help with the uptake of the Botox.
Do no exercise (running, aerobics, weight-lifting, etc.) for 24 hours.
Do not take aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil for 24 hours after the treatment.

You can take Tylenol for any headaches which is the most common side effect after neuromodulator treatment.
Mild bruising can be seen. You may also have pinprick bleeding at the injection sites. If bruising appears you can apply ice to the area for 15 minutes every hour to decrease bruising.
Allow 2 weeks for treatment to take full effect. You may still see lines in at rest lines and may need repeated treatment in these areas for improvement. Neuromodulator only treats lines produced from active movement.
Follow up in 3 weeks to evaluate areas treated.
Consider retreating the area in 3-6 months or once you note movement in the treated area.
Please call the office if you have a severe headache, fever, weakness, or drooping of your eyelids.
