I was injected a few days ago for the first time. I received a total of 60 units and treated my forehead, glabella, crows feet, and a lip flip. It’s day 3 and I don’t see my changes. Is it too soon to anticipate not seeing results?

Answer: Is it common to not see any improvement three days after Xeomin? Results take 2 weeks
Longevity of toxins and fillers vary from person to person. You may simply be a fast metabolizer. Patients who work out or simply have a quick baseline metabolism tend to see this.
Both Xeomin and Botox are purified proteins used to decrease muscular movement of the upper facial muscles..Botox has been used on the very young and old for a host of problems. There mode of action is similar so patients can use either.
I suggest waiting up to two weeks post-injection, although results are noted sooner. An increase in units may be needed, so I recommend returning to your injector to have them review and see if you need a touch-up. Often a patient may respond to a specific neuromodulator (botulinum toxin) brand...
