What are Neuromodulators?
One definition of neuromodulation is the alteration of nerve activity by delivering a stimulus (chemical agent) to specific areas of the body. Neuromodulators are messengers that are released from neurons and inhibit signal activity between neurons. While the word may sound similar to ‘neurotransmitter,’ they actually serve different functions. Both are released from neurons, but the neurotransmitters’ function is to carry messages across synapses. These messages may result in muscle movements. Neuromodulators counteract neurotransmitters by blocking this passage of messages, thereby limiting muscle activity.

Go Uniquely Purified with Xeomin
Xeomin (pronounced “Zeo – men”) is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator used for significant reduction in age-related lines and wrinkles of the face and neck. Unlike BOTOX and Dysport, Xeomin is made via a unique precision manufacturing process that isolates the therapeutic component of the molecule and removes all unnecessary proteins that do not play an active role in treatment.
What are Xeomin Injections?
The State-of-the-Art Anti-Wrinkle Treatment
All neuromodulators (BOTOX, Dysport, & Xeomin) contain an active ingredient that when injected acts to smooth away wrinkles and revitalize skin over time. However, Xeomin is a uniquely purified neurotoxin and is considered to be the PUREST injectable neuromodulator on the market. And, the difference is in its molecular makeup! Xeomin provides a “naked” advantage in that other than the active ingredient, there are no additional complexing proteins in the injectable product. This is critical as unnecessary proteins may lead to the development of neuromodulator-specific antibodies, which result in product tolerance and resistance – rendering further treatment ineffective.
What is Dysport?
Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable— like BOTOX— that is used to reduce dynamic lines of the face and neck. If you are new to considering a neuromodulator for facial rejuvenation, you may have concerns or be wary about injections. You can rest assured that when under the care of Dr. Givens, your first injections of Dysport in Austin are performed very conservatively. For results that appear refreshed and natural, your treatment should be performed by a highly-skilled board-certified facial plastic surgeon. Dr. Givens is a top female facial plastic surgeon with a comprehensive product understanding and an exceptional injection technique targeted to create a fresh, smooth, and youthful appearance in the most natural way.
Who is a Candidate for Neuromodulators?
Overall healthy patients who want to see a reduction in signs of aging, such as facial wrinkles and lines, are considered to be good candidates for treatment with neuromodulators. While the primary application of these injectables is to address signs of aging, they are also an effective treatment for conditions such as excessive sweating, migraines, and muscle stiffness.
That said, patients who are not in good physical and mental health may not be good candidates for neuromodulator injections. They are only approved for patients aged 18 and older.
What can I Expect After my Treatment?
After Xeomin injections, patients can go right back to work, school, or leisure activities. Some clients experience minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites, or they may experience mild headaches. For this reason, try to schedule your appointment well before any important events or appearances. Dr. Givens will provide you with aftercare instructions and will check up on you to ensure you’re happy with your results.
