Does Xeomin still take a few days till up to a week to take effect like Botox does?

Xeomin is like Botox.  Patients will typically start seeing results in 5-7 days.  The final result can take up to 10 days.  I would wait the full 10 days to see what your final result will be.  I would recommend reaching out to the doctor who injected you with any questions or concerns that you might have.
All the best,

Hi xdtyu88, as with any other neurotoxin, Xeomin takes at least 4-5 days to start seeing results and sometimes even longer.  I like to tell my patients that if they do not see perfect results by 2 weeks, a touch-up may be needed to achieve their desired result.  I recommend seeing a plastic surgeon for more information.  Best of luck! 

Hello,The active ingredient in Xeomin   is Botulinum Toxin type A. The way it works is by acting on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibers from contracting.  It is in the same category as Botox and Dysport; the main difference is that it does not have additives. It is possible that the lack of additives in the product could have an advantage of patients being less likely to develop resistance to Xeomin.  Some patients observe visible smoothing as early as 3-4 days after injection. In clinical trials, the median first onset of effect was less than a week. The maximum effect occurred at 14 days. The typical duration of effect was up to 3 months in clinical trials but may last significantly longer or shorter in individual patients.

One day is too short a time frame for you to witness any effect from your xeomin injection.  Typically, patients begin to see the initial effects of xeomin approximately 3 days after injection, although the full effect of the injection may not be apparent for almost two weeks.  The duration of effect of xeomin is typically three to four months. In all of these parameters, xeomin performs almost identically to botox. 

I would wait 1-2 weeks to see the full effect from a Xeomin treatment.  You most likely would begin to see some improvement before that time period, but the result should improve over more time.  It would be unusual to see any change after only one day.  

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. Hope this helps. 

We have had fabulous results with Xeomin in our office. In fact, we now do more Xeomin injections than Botox. We have had patients see results as early as 36 hours after treatment, but 7-10 days is most common. Although I start my patients off slowly to preserve a more natural look, they see results after one treatment. 
I recommend getting treatments at an office similar to mine where a physician-injector administers your injections. Our anatomical knowledge is a huge benefit to maximizing your results. I have my patients come back 10 days after their injection to see if any touch up is needed. 

Hello,
All of the anti-wrinkle injections can take up to 2 weeks to have their full effect. If after 2 weeks there is still more movement than you want, you can have a top-up.
They are all supposed to last about the same length of time, but the dosing is slightly different between them so avoid directly comparing with other brands because there are subtle differences.

Thanks for your question.   In my practice, I use about equal amounts of Botox and Xeomin, depending on what the patient prefers.  Personally, I find the Xeomin seems to work a few days sooner, but one day is still too soon to notice much of an effect.
Hope you have wonderful results!

After being injected 1 day, there most likely will not be a visible result. Botox and Xeomin are working the same by paralyzing the muscle so that you cannot make the movement that causes wrinkles. The manufacturer of the product states that it can take 7-10 days for it to be effective.
