You’ve heard of Botox and even Dysport, but these classic injectables are getting some serious competition. Meet DAXXIFY, the newest neurotoxin taking the aesthetics industry by storm, and for good reason. Here’s everything you need to know about the game-changing treatment.
First, some science. Neurotoxins work by temporarily blocking the signals between nerves and muscles, leading to muscle relaxation. All neurotoxins have a localized effect, meaning they primarily affect the muscles near the injection site, allowing for precise targeting of specific muscles responsible for wrinkles.
While Dysport and Botox are slightly different, made up of slightly different formulations, the variations are still rather minimal, with a similar end result.
The result of the injection is the softened appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the treated area. Typically both Dysport and Botox last up to 3-5 months, with significant variance among individuals.
Now, enter DAXXIFY. The newly FDA-approved neurotoxin is quickly gaining popularity for its durability and unique formulation.
Unlike its predecessors, DAXXIFY lasts up to 2-3 months longer than Botox or Dysport once injected, doubling the effectiveness of a Botox or Dysport injection. This is because of the formulation, which is uniquely made up of peptides, which allows for the active component of the neurotoxin to adhere better to the receptor, causing the molecule to stay active longer before getting washed out by the body.
While DAXXIFY is quickly gaining a loyal fan base, it’s not necessarily better than the alternatives. The innovative neurotoxin is a great choice for those who have established and trusted providers — unlike dermal fillers, there’s no way to reverse the effects of DAXXIFY once injected. For this reason, when you invest in DAXXIFY, ensuring someone you trust is doing the injecting is imperative.
Still, the new neurotoxin in town does not pose any new risks and requires zero downtime following treatment. We’re so excited to offer this cutting-edge discovery in the industry and give our patients the luxury of time, confidence, and beauty with this long-lasting injectable.
