Refresh your appearance with XEOMIN®, a wrinkle-relaxing treatment that softens frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, and other expression lines. At Pink Opal Aesthetics, we’ll help you determine whether it’s the right choice for you, so you can look good and feel even better!
Relax Wrinkles With “The Naked Injectable”
Every smile, laugh, squint, and frown activates tiny facial muscles beneath your skin. Over time, these muscle contractions create dynamic wrinkles, much like bending a piece of cardboard along the same line until a crease forms. Areas such as the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes are prone to these expression lines because they’re constantly in motion.
XEOMIN is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the specific muscles responsible for these wrinkles, allowing the skin above them to appear smoother. Unlike some neuromodulators (like BOTOX), XEOMIN contains only the active ingredient without additional accessory proteins, earning it the nickname “the naked injectable.” At Pink Opal, we’ll help you understand whether XEOMIN is the best option for your goals and create a personalized plan to deliver refreshed, natural-looking results.

How XEOMIN Works
XEOMIN works by temporarily blocking acetylcholine, the chemical messenger that carries signals from your nerves to specific facial muscles. As those targeted muscles relax, the skin above them gradually appears smoother, while allowing the surrounding muscles to continue working normally, so you can still express yourself as you normally would. Because XEOMIN contains only the purified active ingredient without any accessory proteins, it may help reduce the risk of developing tolerance over time.
FAQs
What Happens During a XEOMIN Treatment?
Your appointment starts with a personalized consultation where we’ll discuss your concerns, facial anatomy, and desired outcome. At Pink Opal, we’ll explain whether XEOMIN is the best fit for your goals or if another treatment may be more appropriate. The injections are quick, using a very fine needle to target specific muscles, and most appointments take 10 to 20 minutes.
When Will I Notice My Results?
XEOMIN doesn’t work immediately. Most people begin seeing improvements within three to four days, while full results typically develop over seven to 14 days. As the targeted muscles relax, expression lines become softer without changing the way you naturally express yourself.
How Long Do XEOMIN Results Last?
The results generally last about three to four months. Factors such as your muscle strength, metabolism, and treatment area can all influence how long your results remain visible.
What Makes XEOMIN Different From Other Wrinkle Relaxers?
One of XEOMIN’s defining features is its highly purified formula. It contains only the active botulinum toxin without the accessory proteins found in some other neuromodulators. This has earned it the nickname “the naked injectable” and may help reduce the likelihood of your body developing tolerance over time.
Are There Any Side Effects or Downtime?
Most side effects are mild, including slight redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising around the injection sites. Serious side effects are rare when performed by qualified professionals. There’s little to no downtime, although we’ll recommend avoiding exercise and lying flat for several hours.
