“Botox” is commonly used as a general term. In our clinic, we work exclusively with FDA-approved botulinum toxins such as Xeomin. It is used to smooth expression lines like frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet, as well as to treat excessive sweating. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, requires no downtime, and delivers natural-looking results.

Xeomin is one of the most thoroughly researched and trusted treatments in aesthetic medicine, backed by decades of clinical use and a strong safety record. It delivers predictable, natural-looking results, helps prevent deeper lines from forming, and provides meaningful relief from excessive sweating. Because it’s minimally invasive, fast, and requires no recovery period, Xeomin is an excellent choice for clients looking for safe, effective, and science-backed results.
Xeomin contains a neurotoxin (botulinum toxin type A) which — when injected into specific facial muscles — blocks it. As a result, the muscle stops contracting. That reduces or eliminates the muscle movements that cause dynamic wrinkles.
Yes. Xeomin is one of the most thoroughly studied treatments in aesthetic medicine and has been safely used for both cosmetic and medical purposes for decades when administered by licensed professionals.
Absolutely. When performed correctly, Xeomin softens lines without freezing your expression. You’ll still look like yourself — just more refreshed.
You may be a great candidate if you’re noticing expression lines (like forehead lines or frown lines) or if you struggle with excessive sweating. A consultation helps determine whether Xeomin or another treatment is the best option for your goals.
Yes. Regular treatments can help reduce muscle movements that contribute to deeper lines, making Xeomin an effective preventive option for many patients.
There’s no universal age. Some patients start in their mid-20s to prevent lines from forming, while others begin later to soften existing wrinkles. Eligibility is based on anatomy and goals, not age.
Xeomin targets muscle activity and expression lines, while fillers address volume loss and deeper folds. The specialist in AcneClinic NYC will help determine which treatment — or combination — matches your concerns.
Typically, strenuous workouts should be avoided for the rest of the day to prevent increased circulation that might affect results. Light daily activities are fine.
Xeomin naturally wears off over time. If you ever decide to stop, your muscles will gradually return to their usual activity.
