What Is Xeomin Treatment?

Xeomin is an injectable neuromodulator used to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles — the kind caused by repeated muscle contractions. It contains purified botulinum toxin type A and nothing else. No accessory proteins. No additives.

This purity is what sets it apart. Through a process called XTRACT Technology™, all complexing proteins are removed from the formulation. The result is a highly refined injectable that delivers targeted muscle relaxation with a lower risk of the body developing resistance over time.

Xeomin is fully FDA-approved for cosmetic use and has a strong safety record across millions of treatments worldwide.

How Does Xeomin Work?

Xeomin works by blocking the nerve signals that tell specific facial muscles to contract. When injected into a targeted muscle, it temporarily interrupts that communication. The muscle relaxes. The overlying skin smooths out. The result is a more rested, refreshed appearance — with your natural expressions still intact.

This is not about freezing your face. Xeomin works on the muscles responsible for wrinkle-forming movements, not the ones that give your face character. You will still smile, raise your brows, and express yourself naturally. The difference is that the skin settles better between those expressions.

Cost of Xeomin Treatment in Abu Dhabi

The starting cost of Xeomin treatment in Abu Dhabi is: From 900 AED

The final price varies based on the number of areas being treated and the number of units required to achieve your goal. An exact figure is provided during your initial consultation after a full facial assessment.

Areas Treated With Xeomin

Xeomin can be applied to several areas of the face where repeated muscle movement leads to visible lines:

Treatment Area What It Targets
Forehead Lines Horizontal creases caused by repeated upward brow movement
Frown Lines (Glabellar) Vertical lines between the brows, often linked to stress or concentration
Crow's Feet Fine lines that fan outward from the corners of the eyes when smiling
Bunny Lines Diagonal wrinkles on the sides of the nose from repeated squinting
Chin Dimpling Irregular, puckered texture in the chin area caused by overactive muscle movement

How to Prepare for Your Xeomin Session

Preparation is minimal, but a few steps will help you get the best possible results:

  1. Book a consultation before your first session to discuss your goals and medical history
  2. Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements such as aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E for at least one week prior
  3. Limit alcohol consumption for 24 to 48 hours before your appointment
  4. Arrive with a clean face — no makeup, moisturiser, or sunscreen on the treatment area
  5. Stay well-hydrated in the days leading up to your session

What to Expect During Your Xeomin Session

A Xeomin session is straightforward, quick, and well-tolerated by most patients. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of what takes place:

Consultation and Assessment

Your specialist will review your aesthetic concerns and examine your facial muscle activity. You may be asked to make various expressions so the provider can observe how your muscles move and where the skin creases. This informs the injection plan.

Skin Preparation

The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed. Topical numbing cream or a cold compress may be applied to improve comfort, though most patients find the procedure comfortable without it.

Injection Mapping

Precise injection points are marked before treatment begins. This step ensures accurate targeting and symmetrical results that complement your facial structure.

The Injections

Xeomin is administered using very fine needles. The injections are shallow and take 10 to 15 minutes in total. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief, mild pinch.

Post-Injection Care

A cold compress is applied immediately after the session to reduce any localised swelling. Small bumps at the injection site are normal and typically resolve within 20 to 30 minutes.

Post-Treatment Care Tips

There is no downtime after Xeomin. You can return to your normal routine the same day. However, the first few hours matter for how the product settles:

  1. Do not touch, rub, or apply pressure to the treated area for at least 4 hours
  2. Apply SPF if going outdoors, as sun exposure can affect healing
  3. Avoid steam rooms, saunas, and hot showers for 24 hours
  4. Skip intense physical exercise for the remainder of the day
  5. Stay upright for 4 hours following treatment, do not lie flat
  6. Monitor for any unusual reactions and contact your clinic if needed

Xeomin vs. Botox vs. Dysport: Key Differences

All three are neuromodulators that use botulinum toxin type A to relax wrinkle-causing muscles. The differences come down to formulation, onset, and longevity:

Feature Xeomin Botox Dysport
Composition Purified toxin only — no accessory proteins Toxin + accessory proteins Toxin + accessory proteins
Resistance Risk Lower — no extra proteins to trigger antibodies Moderate over repeated use Moderate over repeated use
Results Onset 3 to 5 days 5 to 7 days 2 to 3 days
Full Results 2 weeks 2 weeks 2 weeks
Longevity 3 to 6 months 3 to 4 months 3 to 5 months
Dosing Ratio 1 unit 1 unit 3 units
Best For Targeted precision, resistance-prone patients Trusted classic, high accuracy Broader areas, faster onset

Xeomin is particularly well-suited for patients who have experienced reduced effectiveness from other neuromodulators over time, as its purified formula carries a lower risk of triggering an immune response.

Who Is the Right Candidate for Xeomin?

Xeomin is suitable for healthy adults looking for a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation. You may be a good candidate if:

  1. You have visible frown lines, forehead creases, or crow's feet that bother you
  2. You are in the early to moderate stages of facial aging
  3. You want natural-looking results, not a dramatic transformation
  4. You are looking for a treatment with no recovery period
  5. You have previously used Botox or Dysport and want to try a purer alternative
  6. You are not pregnant or breastfeeding and have no neuromuscular conditions

Benefits of Xeomin

  1. No downtime — return to your day immediately after treatment
  2. Results look natural — movement and expression are preserved
  3. Highly purified formula with no accessory proteins
  4. Lower risk of resistance developing over repeated treatments
  5. Quick in-clinic procedure — typically 15 to 30 minutes from start to finish
  6. FDA-approved for both cosmetic and medical use
  7. Fully customisable to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals

  1. Chronic migraines
  2. Cervical dystonia (involuntary neck muscle contractions)
  3. Blepharospasm (uncontrollable eyelid twitching)
  4. Upper limb spasticity
  5. Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get Xeomin if I have had dermal fillers? +

Yes. Xeomin and dermal fillers work on different mechanisms and can be safely combined. Together, they address both muscle movement and volume loss for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

How many sessions will I need? +

Most patients achieve their desired outcome with a single session. Follow-up treatments are typically scheduled every 3 to 6 months as results begin to wear off.

Can I switch from Botox to Xeomin? +

Yes, and many patients make this switch precisely because Xeomin's purer formulation reduces the chance of antibody resistance — which can cause Botox to become less effective over repeated use.

Is Xeomin painful? +

Most patients find the injections very tolerable. The needles used are extremely fine, and any discomfort is brief. A topical numbing agent can be applied beforehand if preferred.

Does the treated area feel different afterwards? +

You may notice a slight heaviness in the treated muscles as they begin to relax. This is temporary and typically resolves within a few days as your body adjusts.

Can Xeomin cause an allergic reaction? +

Allergic reactions to Xeomin are rare. Your specialist will review your medical history during the consultation to identify any contraindications before proceeding.

What if I am anxious about needles? +

This is a common concern. The procedure is quick, the needles are very small, and numbing can be applied. Most patients who were initially nervous find the experience far more manageable than expected.
