1 day post - Is it normal for Xeomen injections to form bumps at each injection site? (photo)

It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. Xeomin results take up to 1-2 weeks and you may have swelling which will gradually resolve. Xeomin results last up to 3-4 months in new areas of treatment. See an expert. Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question and the photo you provided. These bumps should continue to resolve in the next couple days. Be sure you follow up with your injector and let them know you are having lingering bumps. Good luck

Thanks for your question and photo.  I would definitely either go in and see your injector or send them a photo of this.  It is not common for the small bumps to last more that a few minutes, although once in awhile, someone can get a bruise and swelling from nicking a blood vessel under the skin while injecting, and that can cause a little lump that lasts as long as the bruise.  I would be curious to see what dilution they mixed the Xeomin with, and if this is something that happens often at your clinic, as it is not something I personally have seen from any of the neurotoxins after a few minutes post injection.  Best of luck!

Hello there,
     This seems very abnormal to me. Typically these bumps are absorbed within minutes of the procedure, and any bumps left would be a result of bruising. It does not mean that it is dangerous or harmful, but does seem to be some type of reaction to the injections. I would definitely contact your provider in regards to this. Hope this helps.

I am not too concerned about the bumps since there is no redness, and as you mentioned, no itching. However, 36 hours post-injection is still a long time to for these bumps to persist. In the vast majority of patients, these tiny pockets of fluid fade in about 15 minutes to an hour. It may be the case that you simply require a bit more healing time than others, but I would send this picture to your injector. He/she will have a better overview of your relevant medical history, and any contributing factors that may have played a role in the persistence of these "bumps."

Rarely you can get small areas of fluid swelling after wrinkle blockers have been injected (Xeomin, Botox, Dysport).  These usually resolve over an hour or so,  but if at a day after may represent a bruise under the skin or a small localized reaction.  I would check with your injector.

Hello and thank you for the question.  Yes, it is perfectly normal to experience slight swelling at the area of injection.  This should resolve in a few days without complications.  If you're still concerned, I suggest following up with your injector so they can have another look at your areas of concern.

Usually small bumps straight after being injected is normal. It is due to the higher volume of fluid being injected under the surface of the skin which creates a small bump, or some swelling from the injection.  If you have concerns I would recommend going back to the injector you saw for a review appointment as these  seem bigger than normal.

Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin lock the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which triggers the muscle contractions that create wrinkles. Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin essentially paralyze the muscles and stops them from contracting. Results from these treatments are visible within 3-7 days with results that can last anywhere from 3-4 months. It is normal to have some swelling at the injection sites for up to 2 weeks. Follow up with your injector at 2 weeks if you have any questions or concerns. Hope this helps. 

Give the area time to heal. You may have some irritation at the injection sites from the needle. If you continue to see irritation follow up with your provider.Best to you,
