The medicine contains incobotulinumtoxinA, a purified neurotoxin free from complexing proteins. This belongs to a family of medicines called peripheral muscle relaxants. Xeomin is injected into the muscles where it blocks the passage of signals from nerves to the muscle. This causes a reduction in the ability of the muscle to contract, helping manage conditions like spasticity and smoothing upper facial wrinkles. Whether for aesthetic treatment of facial lines or management of upper limb spasticity, Xeomin reduces muscle activity with minimal risk of resistance development. This makes it a reliable option for eligible adults experiencing functional or cosmetic upper body problems related to involuntary muscle movement.
