What Is XEOMIN?
Although you may have smiled, frowned, laughed, and made other expressions without any lasting effects when you were younger, you may now notice that the facial lines and wrinkles created by these expressions no longer disappear after your face relaxes. These lines are known as dynamic wrinkles, and they're caused by the overuse of the facial muscles that make them stay contracted, crafting etched lines in the overlying skin. XEOMIN is an injectable wrinkle relaxer that, much like BOTOX®, periodically relaxes the treated facial muscle with a strain of purified botulinum so these dynamic wrinkles look softer and smoother. At El Paso Men's & Women's Clinic in El Paso, TX, we provide a number of cosmetic and medical dermatology procedures similar to XEOMIN nonsurgical wrinkle relaxer treatments. Arrange for a consultation with us to learn more about XEOMIN.
How does XEOMIN work?
XEOMIN treatments at El Paso Men's & Women's Clinic usually take under 30 minutes from beginning to end and can be completed in our procedure room at the conclusion of your consultation. The areas of the face receiving treatment will be sterilized before XEOMIN is carefully injected with a specialized needle. The treatment is quick, and most patients experience mild or no discomfort, so local anesthesia is not required but can be requested during your consultation. Pressure and cold compresses will be applied to the injection area to reduce minor bleeding prior to you leaving.
What to Expect After XEOMIN
After receiving XEOMIN injections, you can return to your daily activities, but heavy activities should be skipped until the following day. You may want to sleep in a slightly elevated position and use cold compresses periodically to expedite healing and results. For a few days after receiving XEOMIN injections, you may also experience some swelling, bruising, and redness of the treatment sites, but these symptoms are common and can be easily concealed with makeup. Many patients will see significant improvements 3 – 4 days after their XEOMIN treatment lasting approximately three months. Touch-ups at El Paso Men's & Women's Clinic can be scheduled to optimize your results.
What Are the Benefits of XEOMIN?
XEOMIN yields lots of benefits to women and men who are looking to smooth fine lines and wrinkles from obvious spots. If your wrinkles and fine lines are disrupting your life and goal look, XEOMIN can:
- Tackle fine lines and wrinkles due to local triggers, including smoking or smile lines
- Diminish visible signs of aging
- Allow an affordable, trusted option for a large number of ideal candidates
- Diminish fine lines and spots with folded skin
El Paso Men's & Women's Clinic Reviews
Amazing Doctor! Great staff! Highly recommend!!!
He is the best physician I have .He is very caring and encouraging doctor.Thank you doctor Leo.
Absolutely adore Dr. Altenberg and his entire staff. Everyone is friendly & welcoming. Dr. Altenberg is professional, yet holds nothing back. If you want a doctor to tell you the truth & how it is, this is your guy. I respect him and his staff for being honest, kind, informative, motivating and prompt with appointment times.
Dr. Altenberg is my new primary care doctor. I switched because with my old primary care doctor, I saw PA’s for 2 years. My wait in the waiting room and the examine room was short. He took his time to understand my issues and asked probing questions to better determine what next steps should be. He did not immediately prescribe unnecessary pills. Rather he is doing extensive blood work and muscosketal X-rays. He also wants to know specifically what existing conditions I have and what my parents died of which will also help him. His office staff have been very helpful on the phone and in the office. I highly recommend Dr. Altenberg and his great staff.
Very professional, goes through your labs meticulously, very nice

Am I A Candidate for XEOMIN?
XEOMIN can help to diminish the look of dynamic wrinkles on the face, such as frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal lines on the forehead, Crow's feet in the outer corners of the eyes, and smile and laugh lines. The best candidates for XEOMIN are in good overall health, not pregnant, and have not had an allergic reaction to other botulinum products, like BOTOX. Talk to Dr. Altenberg at your consultation about your medical history, current medications, and your cosmetic goals so he can customize a XEOMIN treatment plan that is specific to you.
