WELCOME TO RENAISSANCE DERMATOLOGY & AESTHETICS Get Back Youthful Skin
Despite our best efforts, eventually, we will all experience fine lines and wrinkles on our skin. This is where injectable neurotoxin treatments like Xeomin come in.
Xeomin is made of a purified protein that is FDA-approved to temporarily relax the facial muscles that contract and cause wrinkles when you smile, squint, frown, or make other facial expressions. As these muscles relax, the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles is significantly reduced, and new wrinkles are prevented from forming.
If you are ready to look in the mirror and see smooth skin and a youthful appearance, come to Dr. Harrington for Xeomin in Zachary.

WHAT TO EXPECT The Xeomin Process
Consultation
When you come to Renaissance Dermatology & Aesthetics for Xeomin in Zachary, Dr. Harrington will first make sure you are an ideal candidate for injections and discuss your goals. Then, she will provide a recommendation for which injectable will best meet your needs. During your personalized consultation, we will thoroughly educate you on the benefits and risks of Xeomin. We will also take photos of your treatment area(s).
Xeomin Treatment
Dr. Harrington will study your facial expressions and make light marks with a pen to indicate precisely where she will be making the injections. Since we utilize thin, tiny needles, most patients report feeling minimal to no discomfort. If needed, we can provide you with topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort. After a 10 to 15-minute injection process, you will be able to leave our Zachary office and continue your normal activities.
Results
We’ll answer any questions you have about the treatment and give you instructions on the best ways to maintain your results and schedule any follow-up appointments you will need.
PRE-TREATMENT Pre-Care Instructions
Prior to Your Xeomin Treatment in Zachary, Renaissance Dermatology & Aesthetics Recommends:
10 Days Before
Avoid aspirin (e.g., Bayer, Excedrin) and other blood-thinning medications (e.g., Vitamin E, Fish Oil) for at least 10 days before injections. If you are taking this medication under your doctor’s direction, be sure to speak with them for permission before discontinuing it.
3 Days Before
Avoid ibuprofen (e.g., Advil, Motrin) for 3 days before injections. Note: if you’re concerned about pain or bruising, you can take Tylenol before your appointment.
Zinc Supplements
Consider a zinc supplement in the weeks leading up to your Xeomin injections. Studies have shown that higher levels of zinc in the body are related to higher efficacy of Xeomin and other injectables.
Avoid Alcohol
Avoid alcohol for 2 days prior to injections, as this too can thin the blood and cause bruising during treatment.
Hydrate
Make sure your skin is properly hydrated by drinking adequate amounts of water and using moisturizer morning and night.
POST TREATMENT Post-Care Instructions
Following Your Xeomin Treatment in Zachary, Renaissance Dermatology & Aesthetics Recommends:
No Touching/Massaging
No touching or massaging the injection site to avoid moving the injectable around.
Stay Upright
Keep your head upright for at least 4 hours to help reduce swelling and speed up the recovery process.
Avoid For 1 Week
Avoid scrubs, toners, and abrasive cleansers for at least a week to ensure you do not disrupt the precisely-applied Xeomin.
Physical Activity
Avoid strenuous activity or aerobics for 24 hours after your injections.
Frequently Asked Questions
Just one Xeomin treatment session can provide you with full results, but it is recommended to repeat the treatments every 3-4 months to maintain the effects.
Botox and Xeomin are both purified neuromodulator proteins. Through clinical studies and our experience, we believe Botox and Xeomin perform equally well.
The results of Xeomin generally last 3-4 months depending on the patient’s skin type and the depth and severity of wrinkles and fine lines.
The injections utilize a very small needle, so pain is minimal. The majority of our clients feel only a slight sting that is very tolerable. We can provide you with topical anesthetic if you have concern about pain.
Dr. Harrington at Renaissance Dermatology & Aesthetics has years of experience performing Xeomin injections. You can trust that we will deliver subtle, natural results from a highly trained and experienced medical expert in facial anatomy. No one should be able to tell you’ve had any “work” done.
