Xeomin® in Shelby Township, MI
Smooth Expression Lines. Keep the Look Naturally You.
Expression lines are part of being human, but when frown lines, forehead lines, or crow’s feet begin to make you look more tired, tense, or older than you feel, Xeomin® may offer a subtle way to refresh your appearance.
At Refining Health & Wellness in Shelby Township, Michigan, Xeomin treatments are personalized to your facial anatomy, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals. The goal is not to change the way you look. It is to soften dynamic lines while preserving natural expression and facial balance.
What is Xeomin®?
Xeomin® (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription injectable neuromodulator. It works by temporarily reducing the muscle activity that contributes to dynamic facial lines.
Xeomin is formulated without accessory proteins. In cosmetic use, it can temporarily improve the appearance of moderate-to-severe upper facial lines in adults when treatment is clinically appropriate.
What Concerns Can Xeomin® Address?
Xeomin may be used to soften expression lines created by repeated facial movement. FDA-approved cosmetic treatment areas include:
- Frown lines (11s) between the eyebrows
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes
Your provider may discuss other treatment options based on your anatomy and goals. Any use outside FDA-approved cosmetic indications should be discussed individually with your medical provider.
Benefits of Xeomin®

Quick Treatment

Your Personalized Xeomin® Experience
in Shelby Township
Every face moves differently. That is why neuromodulator treatment should never be one-size-fits-all. Your visit begins with a consultation and facial assessment to evaluate muscle activity, symmetry, expression patterns, and the areas that concern you most.
Your provider will determine whether Xeomin is appropriate for you and develop a treatment plan designed to create a rested, refined result rather than an overtreated or “frozen” appearance.
Is Xeomin® Right for You?
Xeomin may be an option for adults who want to soften moderate-to-severe upper facial expression lines without surgery. A consultation is required because treatment is not appropriate for everyone.
Be prepared to discuss your medical history, medications and supplements, prior neuromodulator treatments, allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, and any history of neuromuscular conditions or swallowing or breathing problems. Your provider will determine candidacy and explain potential risks and benefits.
What to Expect During Your Xeomin® Appointment
Consultation & Facial Assessment
Your provider reviews your goals, health history, previous injectable experience, and facial movement. Treatment areas and dosing are selected based on your anatomy—not a preset formula.
Treatment
Xeomin is administered with a series of small injections into selected facial muscles. The injection portion of the appointment is generally brief.
Aftercare
You will receive specific post-treatment instructions. Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, or bruising can occur at injection sites. Follow your provider’s guidance about exercise, pressure on treated areas, skincare, and other activities after treatment.
Follow-Up & Maintenance
Your provider may recommend a follow-up to evaluate your response and facial balance. Cosmetic effects are temporary, and future treatment timing is individualized. FDA labeling recommends retreatment for upper facial lines no more frequently than every three months.
When Will I See Results?
Results develop gradually as the targeted muscle activity decreases. Many patients begin noticing a softer appearance within the first several days, with results continuing to refine over the following days. Clinical before-and-after evaluations are commonly assessed around 14 days.
Xeomin results are temporary and may last up to approximately four months for some patients. Individual response, treatment area, muscle strength, dosing, and metabolism can affect onset and duration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Xeomin® and Botox®?
Xeomin® is a “naked” neuromodulator, meaning it contains no accessory proteins, which reduces the risk of antibody formation over time. This makes it an excellent option for long-term use. Botox® includes accessory proteins, which may work better for some patients. Our experts can help you determine the best choice.
How long does a Xeomin® treatment take?
The injection process typically takes 10–20 minutes, depending on the areas treated. The initial consultation may take 30–45 minutes to ensure a personalized plan.
Is Xeomin® safe?
Yes, Xeomin® is FDA-approved and has a strong safety profile when administered by trained professionals. At Renura, our physician-directed protocols and expert injectors ensure safe, effective treatments.
Will Xeomin® make my face look frozen?
No, Xeomin® is designed to soften lines while preserving natural facial expressions. Our skilled injectors prioritize a balanced, refreshed look tailored to your goals.
How often should I get Xeomin® treatments?
Results typically last 3–4 months. Regular maintenance every 3–4 months helps sustain smooth, youthful skin. Your injector will recommend a schedule tailored to your specific needs.
Are there any side effects?
Mild side effects, such as redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, may occur but usually resolve within a few days. Serious side effects are rare when administered by professionals.
Important Safety Information
Xeomin® is a prescription medication. Botulinum toxin effects may spread beyond the injection area and can cause serious symptoms, including swallowing or breathing difficulties. Tell your provider about all medical conditions, medications, and previous botulinum toxin treatments before treatment.
