I received 25 units of Xeomin to the glabellar region exactly 12 days ago. I have had Botox once before at the same facility (different injector) and although it wasn't perfectly smooth, I had far less movement than I do this time around. I feel like I can fully contract my muscle. I go in for my follow up in 2 days and I know if they do add more units, they charge. I'm frustrated because I don't want to waste the money I already spent but I want true results like I see here. What do you think?
Answer: Xeomin not working In most cases where inadequate correction occurs with neuromodulator injections, the problem can be solved with adding additional neuromodulator (Xeomin in this case). Be sure to speak with your injector regarding any post-injection concerns.While some injectors will charge by the area, and others will charge by the unit, each injector is different on how they handle the need for additional units and the fees involved. Personally, I want to make sure my patients get a good result and are happy, so I work toward that goal and costs are a secondary concern.Always see an expert physician injector.All the best,

Answer: Xeomin Thank you for your question.It appears that you have strong corrugator muscles which may require more units of Xeomin/Botox to achieve your desired results. Discuss your concerns with your provider at your follow up appointment for additional options. To be sure what is best for you, 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 Hi Kat, I feel your frustration, and I sometimes have patients who need a little more to smooth things out. Be up front with your frustrations. Xeomin absolutely will work, but you will need more. Talk about alternatives also. So, go back in, tell them you are frustrated, and see if they can cut your some slack on fees. This is how I handle it. All the best, "Dr. Joe"

Answer: Xeomin 25 Units, 12 Days Out, Not Working?
You seem to have strong corrugator/procerus muscles and would benefit from a higher dosage of Xeomin to see full correction. Contact your provider for further assistance, you may want to continue using Botox if you're not seeing a significant difference with Xeomin
