What is Xeomin?

Xeomin is a prescription medication commonly used for cosmetic purposes to temporarily improve moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults. As it belongs to neuromodulators and contains botulinum toxin type A, which works by blocking nerve signals in muscles to reduce muscle activity and smooth wrinkles, Xeomin injection is administered and widely recognized for temporarily improving facial wrinkles appearance.

What is Dysport?

Dysport is another prescription medication used for cosmetic purposes to address moderate to severe frown lines between adult eyebrows, similar to Xeomin. It also contains botulinum toxin type A and functions by blocking nerve signals to the targeted muscles, leading to the relaxation of those muscles and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles. Dysport is administered via injection and is commonly used to achieve a more youthful and smoother facial appearance.
