What Is Daxxify?

We can’t stop the aging process, but we can soften the signs that come with it. Daxxify is a next-generation wrinkle relaxer that works similarly to traditional neuromodulators (ex. Botox), but with longer-lasting results. If you’re looking for smoother skin and fewer frown lines without constant maintenance, Daxxify may be right for you.

Like other wrinkle-relaxing injectables, Daxxify helps reduce the look of lines caused by muscle movement, like frowning or squinting. But it also uses a unique, peptide-powered formula that helps extend its effects.

Other contributing factors to visible aging may include:

Decreased collagen and elastin production
UV damage
Habitual expressions (frowning, squinting, raising eyebrows)

Daxxify is FDA-approved to treat moderate to severe glabellar lines (the “11s” between your brows) but can be safely used off-label in other areas of the face. Results can last up to 6 months—or even longer in some patients—making it an excellent option for those who want fewer visits and sustained results.

How Does Daxxify Work?

Daxxify works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause expression lines—like frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. The unique formula blocks nerve signals to prevent muscle contraction, allowing the skin to smooth out over time. What makes Daxxify different? Its peptide-based technology helps the active ingredient remain effective longer, so patients often enjoy results that last 6+ months. Our Danville patients love it for its longevity and subtle, refreshed finish.

What Areas Can Daxxify Treat?

The most common areas treated with Daxxify are:

Glabella (the ‘11’ lines between the eyebrows)
Forehead
Crow’s feet (wrinkles around the outer eyes)

Though Daxxify is currently FDA-approved for glabellar lines, experienced injectors may also use it off-label to treat:

Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
Chin dimpling
Neck bands
Jawline softening
Eyebrow lift

Our team will walk you through which areas are most appropriate based on your goals.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Daxxify?

Ideal candidates for Daxxify are adults who:

Are at least 18 years old
Are in good overall health
Have moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles, especially between the brows
Want longer-lasting results than traditional wrinkle-relaxers
Have realistic expectations about outcomes

If you’re in the Danville area and curious about Daxxify, our expert dermatologists can help determine if it’s right for you during a personalized consultation.

Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neuromuscular conditions may not be candidates.

Why Injector Experience Matters

Choosing a board-certified dermatologist for your Daxxify treatment matters. Because this newer product behaves slightly differently than other neuromodulators, it takes a skilled and experienced provider to ensure proper dosing and placement. At Potozkin + Ellis Dermatology, our injectors understand how to maximize Daxxify’s benefits while preserving your natural expressions.

Personalized Consultation and Treatment Plan

During your consultation, Dr. Potozkin, Dr. Ellis, or Dr. Wall will assess your facial anatomy, review your medical history, and learn more about your aesthetic goals. Then, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan designed to give you natural, long-lasting results. Whether you’re new to injectables or looking to switch from Botox or Dysport, we’ll help you find your ideal approach.

Frequently Asked Questions About Daxxify

How is Daxxify different from Botox?

Daxxify and Botox both smooth expression lines, but Daxxify uses a proprietary peptide formula that allows it to last longer—often six months or more. It’s the first and only FDA-approved neuromodulator that’s free of human or animal byproducts.

Is Daxxify safe?

Yes, Daxxify is FDA-approved and considered safe when administered by a qualified professional. Like all injectables, side effects are possible but usually mild and temporary.

How long does Daxxify last?

Clinical trials show Daxxify can last an average of six months, with some patients seeing results for up to nine months.

How soon will I see results?

You may start to notice smoother skin within 1–2 days, with full effects developing over the course of a week.

Can I switch from Botox to Daxxify?

Absolutely. Many patients transition to Daxxify for its longevity. We’ll help you make the switch safely and comfortably.
