DAXXIFY® is a peptide-powered frown line treatment injected to smooth creases between the eyebrows with subtle, long-lasting results. Like other botulinum toxin treatments, DAXXIFY® works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles causing the appearance of glabellar wrinkles (the tiny “eleven” creases that form when frowning). However, this injectable stands out through its unique peptide formulation, which better stabilizes and optimizes the function of its active ingredient. As a result, the rejuvenating effects of DAXXIFY® can often last longer than alternative treatment options such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport®.

DAXXIFY® is an FDA-approved neurotoxin derived from a purified form of botulinum toxin A, a protein in the body. The treatment is distinguished by its use of a novel peptide to stabilize the protein, rather than animal and human byproducts. This not only reduces the risk of allergic reactions, but also helps improve skin texture, making it easier for the product to enter nerve cells and deliver fast-acting and enduring results.
Developed by Revance Therapeutics, DAXXIFY® is the first long-lasting, peptide-stabilized botulinum toxin on the market, representing a significant advancement in non-surgical injectables. Thanks to its unique formulation, many label DAXXIFY® as a “next-generation” wrinkle relaxer.
Treatment with DAXXIFY® can be successful and cost-effective for patients who are good candidates. The injectable offers the following benefits:
DAXXIFY® can be effective for healthy adults looking to reduce the appearance of moderate to deep frown lines or other dynamic wrinkles. Treatment may be able to achieve your goals if you:
Due to the ability to relax frown lines for relatively longer than other frown line treatments, patients are typically able to undergo fewer touch-up sessions when compared to similar options.
Your DAXXIFY® treatment begins with a personalized consultation, where your skilled injector will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals. On the day of your appointment, the targeted area is cleansed and a topical anesthetic can be applied to enhance patient comfort, though most individuals find injections tolerable without it. Using a fine needle, small amounts of DAXXIFY® are carefully injected into specific facial muscles. The entire process typically takes just 10 to 20 minutes. After the injections, you may notice redness or swelling at the injection sites, which usually subsides quickly. There is no required downtime, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately after your visit.
While details vary from patient to patient, the results of DAXXIFY® can last six to nine months on average. Results are typically noticeable within two to four days, with full effects noticeable in about one to two weeks. Due to its innovative formulation, DAXXIFY® can maintain smoother, more youthful-looking skin for several months, depending on the details of your treatment plan.
