Home/Non-Surgical Procedures/DAXXIFY®

DAXXIFY® – also known as daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm – is a cutting-edge neuromodulator injectable designed to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. Unlike traditional neuromodulators, DAXXIFY® can often produce longer-lasting results and require fewer treatments for optimal effects. DAXXIFY® was originally developed to combat frown (glabellar) lines; however, it is frequently used to address other dynamic wrinkles, which appear as a result of repetitive facial movements.*

Our team at Pinsky Plastic Surgery is proficient in a variety of non-surgical treatments, including sought-after injectables like DAXXIFY®. To obtain a more refreshed and youthful appearance, we encourage you to schedule your consultation with our team today.

What Are the Benefits of DAXXIFY®?

In the hands of a qualified injector, DAXXIFY® can produce benefits such as: 

  • Long-lasting effects (often up to six months or longer)
  • Natural-looking results
  • Ability to treat a range of facial areas
  • A quick and convenient procedure 
  • Little to no need for recovery time

Which Areas Can DAXXIFY® Treat?

The famously versatile DAXXIFY® can be used to treat a variety of facial areas where dynamic wrinkles commonly form. These concerns include:

  • Glabellar lines (also known as “frown lines”): Vertical lines between the eyebrows
  • Forehead lines: Horizontal lines that form from raising the eyebrows
  • Crow’s feet: The lines that appear at the outer corners of the eyes when smiling or squinting
  • Bunny lines: Lines that form on the nose when scrunching
  • Chin dimples: Dimples that result from repetitive chin or jaw motion
  • Neck bands: Signs of aging in the neck

What Does the DAXXIFY® Treatment Involve?

DAXXIFY® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals to the muscles responsible for facial expressions. This process involves the injection of daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm, a purified protein, into the targeted muscles. By inhibiting the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles, DAXXIFY® can smooth out the skin’s surface, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The innovative peptide formulation in DAXXIFY® – which is known as “Peptide Exchange Technology” or “PXT” – generally makes for longer results than those of other neuromodulators (i.e. BOTOX® Cosmetic).*

Furthermore, the DAXXIFY® process is generally very quick and painless. After applying a topical aesthetic, we will gently inject the solution into the treatment area with a very fine needle. In most cases, the treatment only takes about half an hour. That said, we generally recommend patients undergo follow-up treatments every six months or so for optimal effects.

What Does the DAXXIFY® Recovery Entail?

After receiving DAXXIFY® injections, it is important to avoid intense physical activity for 24 hours; this can minimize the risk of bruising and swelling. We also advise you to protect your skin from excessive sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for a few days.

Common DAXXIFY® side effects include mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site; however, these typically resolve quickly. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, we encourage you to contact a medical professional. Provided you follow these guidelines, you are likely to enjoy the long-lasting benefits of DAXXIFY®.
