Which is better Botox Dysport or Xeomin?
Dysport is the go-to for those who want fast results and it requires less units than Botox. Dysport can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including wrinkles around one's forehead or eyes; crow's feet (fine lines that form between your eye brows); frown lines on either side of mouth; excess sweating from underarms or palms
Dysport provides faster treatment time with fewer treatments needed as opposed to Xeomin which needs more injections at intervals during 2 weeks before achieving full effect. For those looking for quick relief without downtime, this would provide them just what they are after.

What should I do before my Xeomin treatment?
To help prevent the risk of excessive bruising following Botox injections, please avoid the following at least 3-5 days before treatment; Avoid NSAIDs, blood thinning vitamins, and alcohol can prevent hematomas or contusions as well as speed healing time. However, if you are taking anticoagulant therapy prescribed by your MD for any medical conditions, please continue. FYI- Many medications and vitamins are considered blood thinning.
What should I do after my Xeomin treatment?
After you receive your Botox treatment, these guidelines may help you recover quickly:
- Bruising: This may last a couple of days to weeks. Arnika Forte contains bromelain, which helps decrease the duration of bruising time and severity.
- Do not lie down for 3-4 hours following treatment.
- Keep your head in a neutral position for the rest of the day without bending the head forward or down. By following these precautionary measures, you will minimize the occurrence of ptosis (droopy eyelids) and less than optimal outcomes.
- Facial exercises (squint/frown/smile) are recommended in the treated area for one hour after injection.
- Avoid manipulation of the treated area for the rest of the day, such as using a Clarisonic brush, scrubbing, rubbing, or pressing the treated areas.
- No exercise for 24-48 hours following treatment. Anything that causes heat or increases blood pressure will likely metabolize the product faster: i.e., hot yoga, pilates, saunas, steam rooms, infrared sauna, high impact exercise, hyperhidrosis, hypertension, hyperthyroidism, stress, etc.
