Botox Hawaii – Xeomin Hawaii

Botox® and Xeomin are procedures using Botulinum Toxin which were developed to treat the visual signs of aging by reducing or removing wrinkles.  The procedure is considered a safe, effective way of treating aging skin.  Common areas for Botox® and Xeomin injections include horizontal forehead furrows, vertical lines between the eyebrows and “crow’s feet” around the eyes.  Botox® and Xeomin treatments have proven to be one of the most popular non-surgical forms of facial rejuvenation worldwide.

Reasons for Considering a Botox / Xeomin Treatment:

  • Excessive facial wrinkles.
  • Large wrinkles or furrows in your forehead.
  • Small wrinkles or “crow’s feet” around your eyes.
  • A vertical “frown line” between your eyebrows.

General Procedure

The procedure works by altering the facial muscles beneath the skin that are related to wrinkles.  A cream with local anesthetic will be placed on your skin prior to treatment, and ice will be immediately applied upon completion of the Botox® / Xeomin treatment.  Typically a small amount of Botox® / Xeomin is injected into the area of the wrinkle.  Botox® / Xeomin works by blocking the impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles, thereby relaxing them.  The result is the underlying facial muscles relax and the skin begins to smooth out.  The effects of a Botox® / Xeomin treatment will last approximately three months after which the patient may choose to repeat the procedure.

Recovery Process

Patients generally return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure, however following the post-procedure guidelines will dramatically reduce the length and intensity of the recovery period.  Patients should avoid engaging in heavy physical exercise, applying cosmetics, or laying down flat for a minimum of 4 hours after the injections.  It is also advisable to avoid rubbing or massaging the injected area for at least 24 hours.
