XEOMIN® in Louisville, KY

While you may have smiled, frowned, laughed, and made other expressions without any lasting effects when you were young, you may now be noticing that the facial lines caused by these expressions remain even after your face relaxes. These lines are called dynamic wrinkles, and they're caused when the facial muscle stays contracted from overuse, forming an etched line in the overlying skin. XEOMIN is an injectable wrinkle releaser that, like BOTOX®, temporarily relaxes the treated facial muscle with a purified strain of botulinum toxin type A so these dynamic wrinkles appear smoother and softer. At Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery in Louisville, KY, we offer cosmetic services like XEOMIN nonsurgical wrinkle relaxer treatments. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Nana Mizuguchi or an experienced member of his aesthetic team for more information about XEOMIN.

XEOMIN treatments at Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery typically take under 30 minutes and can be completed in one of our procedure rooms after your consultation. The areas of the face receiving treatment will be cleaned before XEOMIN is carefully injected with a fine gauge needle. The treatment is quick and generally does not cause significant discomfort, so local anesthesia is not necessary but is available upon request. Pressure and cold compresses will be applied to the site of the injections to prevent minor bleeding before returning home.

You will be able to leave our office immediately after your XEOMIN treatment to resume your normal activities, but exercise and other strenuous activities should be skipped for the rest of the day. We may recommend that you sleep in a slightly elevated position and apply cold compresses as needed to expedite healing and results. For a few days following a XEOMIN injection, you may experience bruising, swelling, and redness near the treatment areas, but this is no cause for concern and can be easily covered up with makeup. Many patients will notice marked improvements 3 – 4 days after their XEOMIN treatment lasting approximately three months. Repeat treatments at Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery can be arranged to sustain your results.
