What Is Daxxify®?

Daxxify® is a newly FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin used to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles. Similar to other neurotoxins like Botox® and Dysport®, Daxxify® works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles, giving your skin a smoother, more youthful appearance. However, what sets Daxxify® apart is its unique formulation, which provides longer-lasting results compared to other injectables on the market. While most traditional neurotoxin treatments last about 3 to 4 months, Daxxify® has been shown to provide effects that last up to 6 months or longer for some patients. This makes it an ideal solution for those who want a more enduring option for facial rejuvenation with fewer treatment visits.

What Areas Can Daxxify® Treat?

Daxxify® is primarily used to treat dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. The most common areas treated include:

Forehead lines
Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
Crow's feet (around the eyes)
Lines around the mouth (smile lines)

Daxxify® is particularly effective in treating the upper third of the face, where wrinkles are most commonly formed due to muscle movements like frowning, squinting, and raising the eyebrows.

How Does Daxxify® Work?

Daxxify® works by inhibiting the signals from the nerves to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. When the facial muscles are relaxed, the skin smooths out, which diminishes the appearance of lines and wrinkles. This process helps restore a youthful, refreshed look while preserving your natural facial expressions.

The unique formula of Daxxify® is designed to last longer than traditional neurotoxins, with some patients experiencing results for up to six months or longer, making it an excellent option for those seeking fewer touch-ups and more long-term results.

What Makes Daxxify® Different?

While Daxxify® works similarly to Botox® and Dysport®, its primary advantage lies in its longevity. Daxxify® has been formulated with a unique peptide, which helps extend the duration of its effects. This innovative approach allows patients to enjoy their smoother, more youthful appearance for an extended period, reducing the need for frequent injections.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that Daxxify® lasts about 6 months or longer for many patients, which is significantly longer than other neurotoxin options on the market.

Do Daxxify® Injections Hurt?

Daxxify® injections are generally well-tolerated, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Dr. Leong personally performs all injections, ensuring that you have a comfortable and precise experience. If you’re concerned about pain, a topical numbing cream can be applied before the treatment to enhance comfort.
