Unlike other muscles in our body those of the face are attached directly to the skin and thus cause it to fold in specified patterns that onlookers recognize as confusion, or sadness, or joy. The repetition of these folding actions causes patterning in collagen and elastin, eventually resulting in permanent expression lines and wrinkles, aka. “the stamp of time.”
Age does us a double disservice by decreasing the amount of collagen and elastin in the skin. These account for 80% of the connective tissue, so as they decrease over the years, the skin loses significant volume, making the muscle patterning more visible.
Controlled dosages of Botox or Xeomin work by allowing wrinkle-causing muscles to relax, causing wrinkles to melt away and at the same time reducing muscle contractions. Although the effect of neuromodulators wears off after 3-4 months, it could be argued that their anti-aging impact lasts forever.
Botox and Xeomin injections contain the same neuromodulator, botulinum toxin; however, Xeomin has smaller molecule size, which makes its effects show faster. However, there is no significant difference in the effect duration or dosage administration
At Under the Clouds Dental Spa, we use both Botox and Xeomin to reduce the visual effects of aging in the face. If you have an upcoming event or date, Xeomin might be the better option, but it all depends on your priorities.
The best results are achieved when Botox or Xeomin are used in conjunction with a facial filler, as these stimulate the growth of elastin and collagen while also adding more volume for even greater impact.
