A Deep Dive into Daxxify

By Dr. Mara Haseltine 

Introducing Daxxify, the newest and longest-lasting neuromodulator to hit the market! “Daxxi” is made by Revance Aesthetics, the company that makes the beautiful RHA hyaluronic acid filler we know and love.  There are several other neuromodulators (aka “toxins”) on the market that can smooth forehead and facial lines by relaxing muscles in turn causing less wrinkles with dynamic movement.  Botox hit the market about 20 years ago, and now we have Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau.  Let’s see how Daxxi measures up!

What is Daxxify?

Daxxify is the only neuromodulator that is free of human albumin protein.  Instead, Daxxify uses a charged peptide protein.  With this innovative approach to wrinkle relaxation, Daxxi can now achieve longer-lasting results than ever before. This peptide exchange technology increases the bindings to nerve endings, extending the duration of its cosmetic effects.  

How Long Does it Last?

Daxxify stands out from its competitors with clinical trials showing results lasting up to 9 months!  It is quick acting too – it usually kicks in around 2 days!!   Trials have shown that over 80% of people using Daxxify don’t show signs of wrinkles for at least four months after the treatment. In the clinical trials of almost 2,700 subjects, more than half the subjects got more than 6 months duration from their Daxxify treatment.  Previous neuromodulator treatments have been shown to be effective for about 3-5 months.  Daxxi clearly has an edge of longevity!

Where can it be injected?

Daxxify can be injected anywhere any other neuromodulator can be injected – Between the eyebrows to soften the pesky “11’s,” horizontal forehead lines, Crow’s Feet, into the masseter muscles for TMJ, or above the lip for the “Lip Flip.”

How much does it cost?

Daxxify is considered a premium product that is only sold to very experienced injectors and is not priced per unit like other toxin competitors. It will be released only to a limited number of practices initially in the United States in early 2023.  Your expert injectors at Pure Dermatology in Metairie, LA currently have Daxxify as one of the elite practices!   Our intro pricing ranges from $400-$1,100 depending on your consultation.

Am I a good candidate for Daxxify?

Daxxify is a new, exciting option for  those seeking longer-lasting results from their Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin treatments. If you have never had Botox, Jeuveau, or Dysport, Daxxify may not be the right choice for you.  You may want to try a shorter duration neuromodulator initially for a test run.  Daxxify is perfect for individuals who have been using these products and feel like the impact isn’t lasting as long as it used to be. This can be seen  with high-metabolism patients who exercise frequently and intensely. With Daxxify, you’ll still enjoy amazing effects that last much longer than traditional neuromodulators. Think of it as the difference between a traditional manicure and a gel manicure – a gel manicure costs more, but it looks prettier and lasts longer, so it’s totally WORTH IT!   Ask your expert injector at Pure Dermatology in Metairie, LA at your next visit about Daxxify!  We will be offering “try it” pricing during the launch period this Spring for those patients that want to try this premium product!
