If you are concerned about frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, or other expression-related wrinkles, Xeomin may help temporarily relax targeted facial muscles and soften upper facial lines.

Hongdae and Sinchon are convenient areas for aesthetic treatments in Seoul, especially for international residents, students, and travelers.

What Is Xeomin?

Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription botulinum toxin type A treatment injected into muscles to temporarily reduce muscle activity.

For cosmetic use, it is indicated in adults for moderate to severe frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet.

Consultation → facial assessment → injections → gradual results → follow-up.

When Might You Consider Xeomin?

Xeomin may be considered for:

• Frown lines between the eyebrows
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Crow’s feet
• Expression-related wrinkles
• Upper facial aging concerns
• Patients considering botulinum toxin treatment

The appropriate areas and dose depend on your facial anatomy and muscle activity.

Common Xeomin Treatment Areas

Frown Lines

Xeomin can temporarily soften vertical lines between the eyebrows caused by repeated frowning.

Forehead Lines

Treatment may reduce horizontal wrinkles that become visible when raising the eyebrows.

Crow’s Feet

Xeomin can also be used for lines around the outer corners of the eyes.

Xeomin Treatment Process

A typical appointment may include:

1. Medical consultation
2. Facial muscle assessment
3. Selection of injection areas
4. Xeomin injections
5. Aftercare instructions
6. Follow-up if needed

The exact number of units and injection points depends on the treatment area and individual anatomy.

Xeomin vs Botox

Xeomin and Botox are both botulinum toxin type A products, but they contain different formulations and are separate prescription products.

Both temporarily reduce muscle activity, while the most appropriate option depends on the patient, treatment area, and provider’s clinical assessment.

How Long Do Xeomin Results Last?

Clinical studies of Xeomin for upper facial lines found that results may last up to about 4 months, although duration varies between individuals.

Repeat treatment may be considered as muscle activity gradually returns.

Is There Downtime After Xeomin?

Most patients can return to regular daily activities relatively quickly.

Temporary reactions may include:

• Bruising
• Injection-site reactions
• Headache
• Eyelid or brow drooping
• Temporary tenderness

Individual reactions vary.

Possible Risks

Like other botulinum toxin products, Xeomin carries a warning about possible spread of toxin effects beyond the injection area.

Rare but serious symptoms may include difficulty swallowing, speaking, or breathing and require prompt medical attention.

Xeomin for International Patients

When contacting a clinic, consider asking:

• Is English consultation available?
• Is Xeomin suitable for my concerns?
• Which areas will be treated?
• How many units are recommended?
• Is follow-up included?

If you have previously received Botox, Xeomin, or another botulinum toxin treatment, tell the provider which product was used and when.
