Answer: Difference between Botox and Xeomin Botox and Xeomin are essentially the same thing. They are both neuromodulators. Like Botox, Xeomin is commonly used for cosmetic purposes to treat wrinkles and fine lines of the forehead, glabella (between the eyebrows), lateral orbital areas (crow’s feet), and lateral nasal areas (bunny lines). In select patients, Xeomin can also be used to improve down-turned corners of the mouth, vertical banding of muscles in the neck, and wrinkling of the lower eyelids and chin areas.

Answer: Xeomin They are essentially the same with the same mechanism of actions and result. They are stored differently, but that is about the only difference.

Answer: Xeomin Thank you for your question in regards to Xeomin. Botox and Xeomin are just two different brands of botulinum toxin molecule. They are prepared and stored differently, but have the same results. To be sure, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Xeomin, Dysport, and Botox - similar results Xeomin, Dysport and Botox are all preparations of botulinum toxin A derived protein that works at the nerve-muscle interface to relax targeted muscles. Each preparation is slightly different, for example the protein size differs. Dysport and Xeomin have been around in Europe for a long time and more recently introduced in the USA. Note the dosage is not the same between the drugs though each works well in my experience.

Answer: Appears to work the same. Different company and different manufacturing process. Hi Clairearcher,If you did not know whether you had Xeomin injections or Botox injections, most likely you would not be able to tell the difference. The Botox molecule is larger (900 kD kilodalton) and has some proteins that accompany the actual active portion (150 kD) which causes the muscle to be paralyzed. The Xeomin molecule has only the 150 kD active Botox molecule without the accessory proteins that Botox cosmetic has.Since the active portion of the molecule is the same, it should work same. Both Botox and Xeomin come in 100 unit vials and the dosing for Xeomin is the same as Botox, so I don't need to make a special calculation as I need to do with Dysport (2.5 ratio.)Currently the Xeomin vials are less expensive during their introductory roll out, but this may change in the future as with Dysport which started off cheaper, and is now about the same price as Botox cosmetic per vial.Best,Dr. YangP.S.
