If you’ve ever wondered, “What does Botox actually do?” — you’re not alone. With all the buzz around injectables, it can feel confusing to know what they target and how they work. At Lux, we offer both Botox® and Xeomin® — two incredible treatments that relax muscles, smooth skin, and help you look fresh and confident.
Let’s break it down.
The Basics: How Botox & Xeomin Work
Both Botox and Xeomin are neuromodulators. That means they work by temporarily relaxing the tiny muscles that cause lines and wrinkles. When those muscles stop contracting so much, your skin gets a chance to smooth out — leaving you looking more refreshed (and less stressed).
Skin Benefits Beyond Wrinkle-Softening ✨
These treatments aren’t just about wrinkles anymore. Patients also notice:
Smooth + Shiny Skin → Relaxed muscles give skin a glassy, polished look.
Smaller-Looking Pores → By calming oil/sebum production, skin looks more refined.
Balanced Oil Control → Many patients see less shine and fewer breakouts.
Relaxed Expressions → You’ll still look like you — just more rested.
Botox® vs Xeomin® – What’s the Difference?
Both treatments are highly effective, but they each bring something special to the table:
Botox®
A trusted name that’s been around for decades.
Great for softening forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines.
Works beautifully for first-time users or those looking for reliable results.
Xeomin®
Known as the “naked injectable” because it doesn’t have added proteins.
That means your body is less likely to build resistance over time.
Results are just as natural and effective as Botox, especially for repeat users.
At Lux, we love both — and we’ll help you decide which option fits your goals best.
Bottom Line: Whether you choose Botox or Xeomin, both are safe, effective ways to smooth lines, refine pores, and give your skin that effortless glow.
