A Unique Neurotoxin Powered by a Peptide to Smooth Frown Lines for 6 months or more.
Most neurotoxins on the market come with a typical timeframe of three to four months for expected results. But there’s an exciting new neurotoxin available at Atlanta Face & Body that offers results that may last six months or more (up to nine months in some cases). DAXXIFY® is the first FDA-approved, peptide-formulated neurotoxin with longer-lasting results in treating moderate to severe frown lines.
How does DAXXIFY work?
Like other neuromodulators, DAXXIFY (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm) is injected into the skin area where frown lines are present. The purified protein, botulinum toxin type A, then puts a temporary halt in specific muscle contractions that cause the frown lines to form, effectively diminishing or even eliminating the lines for several months. In addition to treating frown lines. DAXXIFY can also be used to smooth wrinkles in any other areas as well as an off-label use (typically wherever neurotoxin injections can be used).
Before & After: DAXXIFY®
How is DAXXIFY different from other neurotoxins?
DAXXIFY is the only frown line treatment powered by a peptide. Also, it doesn’t contain any human or animal byproducts. Other neurotoxins require a special ingredient to stabilize the botulinum toxin A, which is the protein responsible for pausing the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles. Other treatments use either human or animal byproducts as stabilizers, while DAXXIFY uses the novel peptide instead. The longer-lasting results of DAXXIFY also set it apart from other neurotoxins.
What is the significance of peptides in DAXXIFY?
Peptides are strings of molecules called amino acids, which are the “building blocks” of proteins.
The protein collagen is a source of physiologically active peptides and is one of the main building blocks of your skin, as well as a vital component of your muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, and other connective tissues. Incorporating peptides through DAXXIY injections can stimulate the skin to make more collagen, in addition to its muscle-relaxing capabilities. Furthermore, peptides can absorb into the skin and lead to benefits that may include an improved skin barrier, reduction in wrinkles, better elasticity, and reduced inflammation. Basically, think of peptides as messengers for other cells signaling them to produce more collagen and elastin, contributing to the youthful results you crave.
What is Dr. Elizabeth’s DAXXIFY Duration method?
Dr. Elizabeth formulated her DAXXIFY Duration method to offer even longer-lasting results for her tox patients. This specialized technique involves more units of the neurotoxin being injected as compared to a more traditional tox treatment. With more units being used, the results are most often even longer periods of diminished wrinkles in the treatment area. DAXXIFY Duration is a very popular option for those whose busy schedules often make it difficult to book regular follow-up treatments every few months, as is the case with other tox treatments such as Botox® and Xeomin®. We will thoroughly discuss Dr. Elizabeth’s DAXXIFY Duration method with you at your private consultation to help you determine if it’s the best option for you.
Is DAXXIFY safe?
DAXXIFY was rigorously tested in one of the largest-ever clinical studies that included more than 2,800 people of different ages and skin types. The results of that study showed no serious side effects relating to treatment, and 96% of people stated they were satisfied with their results.
Who is a good candidate for DAXXIFY in Atlanta?
If you already get regular neurotoxin injections but wish to experience longer-lasting results than the typical three to four months, then DAXXIFY may be a great option to consider. Simply schedule your private consultation at Atlanta Face & Body, and we’ll help you determine if this revolutionary treatment is the right option for you.
Does DAXXIFY have any side effects?
While no serious side effects were reported in the clinical study, the most common side effects associated with DAXXIFY included the potential for swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness around the injection site (much like side effects associated with other neurotoxins). These are typically mild and resolve without intervention. Most patients feel comfortable resuming their normal activities once treatment is done.
When can I expect to see results from DAXXIFY?
Some patients report seeing results as early as one to two days after treatment. The most noticeable results (including improved texture, hydration, and glow) generally occur about two weeks after treatment, however. And the best part is those skin-smoothing results can last anywhere from six to nine months! At least 50% of patients in clinical trials still had visible improvement six months after treatment, with a smaller percentage of patients still experiencing results nine months after treatment.
