Daxxify is a revolutionary treatment to address visible signs of aging. It is a neurotoxin similar to Botox that works by blocking nerve signals to reduce muscle activity and soften fine lines and wrinkles. But unlike other neurotoxins, it doesn’t contain any human or animal byproducts and is incredibly long-lasting, with results staying visible for 6 to 9 months.

At Skin Therapeutics, we’re excited to offer Daxxify to patients in Ellicott City, Columbia, Elkridge, and the broader Baltimore area in Maryland. Schedule a consultation today and take the first step towards a fresher, younger-looking you.

What is Daxxify?

Daxxify is an FDA-approved injectable treatment containing botulinum toxin type A, the same neuromodulator found in Botox Cosmetic and Dysport. It works by temporarily immobilizing the muscles responsible for the dynamic wrinkles, or expression lines, that appear when you frown, smile, or squint. 

Daxxify differs from other neuromodulators on the market in that it is the only formulation that uses a novel peptide as a stabilizer rather than human or animal byproducts, which are found in Botox, Dysport and other brands. This peptide stabilizes the toxin for far longer, making Daxxify results last up to three times longer than the competition.

Benefits of Daxxify

• Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
• Improved appearance of frown lines between the eyebrows
• Non-surgical and minimally invasive
• Quick treatment with minimal downtime
• Long-lasting results (up to 9 months)

Why We Use Daxxify

At Skin Therapeutics Medical Spa, we stand at the forefront of innovative skin treatments by integrating advanced, FDA-approved solutions like Daxxify. What sets Daxxify apart from other neurotoxins is its quick onset of action and prolonged duration, often outperforming Botox in both aspects. 

By incorporating Daxxify into our treatment repertoire, we are able to provide our clients with highly effective, longer-lasting results, enhancing both your satisfaction and confidence in your appearance.

Ideal Candidates for Daxxify

Daxxify is suitable for men and women who are seeking to reduce the appearance of:

• Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
• Forehead lines
• Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)

Daxxify may not be suitable for individuals with certain neurological conditions, allergies to botulinum toxins or skin infections at the proposed injection site.

Before & Afters

After Daxxify injections, you can expect a noticeable reduction in the targeted lines and wrinkles. The treated area will appear more relaxed and refreshed. The full results typically become visible after 3-7 days, and last for up to four months, depending on individual factors.

What to Expect from Your Daxxify Session

The process of receiving Daxxify treatment at Skin Therapeutics begins with a personalized consultation. In this initial meeting, our trained practitioners assess your aesthetic goals,  evaluate your facial anatomy and skin type and discuss the cosmetic procedures you might be interested in. Understanding your unique needs is key to crafting a custom treatment plan for you.

On the day of the treatment, you’ll be comfortably seated in our state-of-the-art facility in Ellicott City, Maryland. Daxxify is administered as a series of small injections, targeting specific muscles responsible for the wrinkles and frown lines on your face. Our expert injectors use fine needles to minimize discomfort, and the procedure itself typically takes less than half an hour.

Recovery and Aftercare

After your Daxxify session, you can expect minimal downtime. You may see some slight bruising or swelling at the injection sites, but these side effects are temporary and should subside within a day or two.

Your practitioner will provide aftercare instructions, such as avoiding strenuous activity and excessive heat for 24 hours post-treatment. Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for 24 hours to prevent the spread of the toxin away from the targeted muscles.

You’ll start to see the effects of the Daxxify treatment within 3-5 days as your frown lines begin to soften, with full results typically visible within two weeks.

Follow-ups are scheduled as needed to maintain the rejuvenating effects of Daxxify, ensuring that your skin remains smooth and vibrant. Our team is always available to answer your questions and guide you through your skincare journey.

FAQs

Does Daxxify have any side effects?

Like all cosmetic treatments, Daxxify may have potential side effects, although they are typically mild and temporary. Some patients may experience localized pain, inflammation, redness, or bruising at the injection site. More serious but rare side effects include muscle weakness in the injected area or flu-like symptoms.

What’s the difference between Daxxify and Botox?

While both Daxxify and Botox are injectable neurotoxins used for the treatment of wrinkles and lines, there are key differences. While Botox is stabilized with human serum albumin (HSA), Daxxify contains a novel peptide. As a result, it typically works faster and lasts longer than Botox, often offering noticeable results within 24–48 hours after treatment that can last for 6–9 months.

Can Daxxify replace plastic surgery?

While Daxxify provides impressive results in smoothing wrinkles and improving the appearance of the skin, it’s not a replacement for plastic surgery. Daxxify is excellent for treating moderate to severe wrinkles, particularly in the glabellar area, but plastic surgery may be necessary for more significant or comprehensive facial rejuvenation or alteration. It’s best to consult with a professional to determine the most suitable treatment for your specific needs.
