Dysport and Xeomin Santa Monica at Kare Plastic Surgery | Botox Alternative

Botox is the most popular type of cosmetic injectable for the treatment of wrinkles in the United States. Although most patients have heard of Botox injections, fewer know that there are FDA-Approved alternatives to Botox that are available at our Santa Monica plastic surgery and medical spa on Montana Avenue. We are dedicated leaders in cosmetic injections, including dermal fillers, Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport. We often use these alternatives in patients who are seeing diminished results with Botox injections.


Dysport

Dysport is a facial neurotoxin that acts in a similar fashion to Botox to eliminate overactive wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. As an FDA-approved facial treatment for wrinkles, used by millions as an alternative to Botox and Xeomin. Kare Plastic Surgery specializes on cosmetic fillers and injections, including Botox and Dysport to restore youthful skin to the face. 

"Dysport is an effective Botox-alternative for patients who have developed resistance to Botox injections. Dysport is safe and works well to eliminate fine wrinkles around the eyes." Dr. Karamanoukian


Dysport and Botox are often combined with Juvederm and Restylane facial fillers to help rejuvenate the face. Please call our Santa Monica plastic surgery patient care coordinators to schedule an appointment with Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian. 

Xeomin Wrinkle Treatment in Santa Monica

Xeomin is an FDA-approved rejuvenation treatment for prevention and correction of fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck. Much like Botox or Dysport, Xeomin contains a safe, botulinum derivative wrinkle relaxer that has a proven success record to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles.
 
Cosmetic treatments for the face include lasers, dermal, fillers, and Botox/Xeomin injections to improve the premature signs of facial aging. Xeomin is used to target hyperactive muscles in the face and neck in order to give the appearance of a more youthful complexion and contour. At Kare Plastic Surgery in Santa Monica, we use Xeomin, Dysport, and Botox injections to improve fine lines and wrinkles, attain a brow lift, reduce crows feet around the eyes, improve forehead, wrinkles, reduce hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating, improve neck wrinkles, and reduce the effects of teeth grinding and masseter hypertrophy.
 
Xeomin is marketed by Merz pharmaceuticals, an international leader in cosmetic treatments for the face and body. Many of the same effects attained by Botox  are achieved with Xeomin injections. We use Xeomin in patients who have noticed a gradual decline in the efficacy of repeated Botox injections as Xeomin spreads in the soft tissue differently and has different mechanism of action related to the acetylcholine receptors in the body.  Many patients prefer Xeomin injections over Botox or Dysport as it has very specific mechanisms of action and is very reliable for the temporary correction of  wrinkles on the face.
