Daxxify is an effective solution for individuals seeking to rejuvenate their appearance and smooth away wrinkles. It is just one of many neuromodulators available, and serves as an alternative to Botox, providing excellent results for our patients.
At Binder Dermatology, each patients' treatment plan is customized to the best neuromodulator from a whole suite of products. Dr. Binder is committed to working with each patient individually to determine the best neuromodulator to use for their specific needs.
What Is Daxxify?
Daxxify (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm) is a revolutionary FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator designed to temporarily reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines in the forehead between the eyebrows, referred to as glabellar lines. Unlike traditional botulinum toxin products, Daxxify utilizes a unique peptide-based stabilizer, Peptide Exchange Technology™ (PXT), which enhances its binding to nerve receptors, leading to longer-lasting effects.
How Does Daxxify Work?
Daxxify functions similarly to other botulinum toxin products by blocking nerve signals to the targeted muscles. This inhibition prevents muscle contractions that cause frown lines, resulting in a smoother and more youthful appearance. The incorporation of PXT in Daxxify's formulation contributes to its extended duration of action.
What Are the Benefits of Daxxify?
Long-Lasting Results
Daxxify offers results that may last up to 6 months, reducing the frequency of treatments compared to other neuromodulators.
Rapid Onset
Patients may begin to see improvements as early as 1 to 2 days post-treatment, with full effects typically visible within 1-2 weeks.
Natural Appearance
With the right provider, Daxxify can provide subtle muscle relaxation, preserving natural facial expressions and avoiding a "frozen" look.
Minimal Downtime
The procedure is quick, with most patients experiencing minimal redness or swelling at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few hours.
How Is Daxxify Different from Botox?
While both Daxxify and Botox are botulinum toxin type A products, they differ in their formulations and duration of action:
-
Duration: Daxxify's effects can last up to 6 months, whereas Botox typically lasts 3 to 4 months.
-
Formulation: Daxxify contains a peptide-based stabilizer, PXT, which enhances its binding to nerve receptors, leading to longer-lasting effects.
-
Stabilizers: Unlike Botox, which uses human serum albumin, Daxxify's stabilizer is peptide-based, making it a suitable option for individuals with sensitivities to human or animal proteins.
Daxxify Frequently Asked Questions
What Areas Can Daxxify Treat?
Daxxify is FDA-approved for the treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. While its use is currently limited to this area, ongoing research may expand its applications to other facial wrinkles in the future.
Is Daxxify Right for Me?
Daxxify treatments are suitable for healthy adults aged 18 and older who wish to reduce the appearance of frown lines. A consultation with a board certified dermatologist like Dr. Susan Binder, is essential to determine if Daxxify is appropriate for your specific needs and to discuss potential risks and benefits.
What Can I Expect During a Daxxify Treatment?
The Daxxify treatment involves a series of small injections into the targeted muscles. The procedure typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. After treatment, you may notice slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few hours.
How Much Does Daxxify Cost?
The cost of Daxxify varies depending on the provider and geographic location. While the price per unit may be slightly higher than Botox, the longer-lasting results can make Daxxify a cost-effective option in the long run.
