Daxxify
Scottsdale, AZ
If you still see lines between your eyebrows after you stop frowning, these are likely dynamic wrinkles from repeated muscle movement. Daxxify is a prescription injectable that temporarily relaxes specific muscles to soften moderate to severe frown lines, also known as glabellar lines.
At Aesthetic Assets, your provider looks at your facial movement, balance, skin quality, and the results you want before recommending a treatment. Daxxify is one option, along with Botox and Dysport. The aim is a natural look that suits your features and preferences.
In Scottsdale, Daxxify is FDA-approved to treat the area between the eyebrows. It does not address skin texture, pigmentation, or volume loss. If you want to improve skin quality too, your provider might suggest treatments like DiamondGlow, microneedling, Potenza RF microneedling, or LaseMD fractional laser as part of a bigger skin plan.
Daxxify is the brand name for daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm, a prescription neuromodulator. The FDA has approved it to temporarily improve moderate to severe glabellar lines in adults. Glabellar lines are the vertical frown lines between your eyebrows.
Daxxify is injected into specific muscles. It is not a dermal filler and does not restore facial volume. The 35-amino-acid peptide RTP004 helps keep the formula stable. For full product and safety details, read the Daxxify prescribing information.
When you frown, the muscles between your eyebrows contract and pull on the skin above them. Over time, repeated movement can make these lines more noticeable, even when your face is relaxed. These are called dynamic wrinkles because they are caused by muscle activity.
Daxxify temporarily blocks the nerve signals that tell certain muscles to contract. As these muscles relax, frown lines can become less noticeable. Daxxify only treats lines caused by muscle movement. It does not resurface skin, boost collagen, or treat all fine lines. Its effects are temporary, and normal facial movement returns over time.
Your provider will plan where and how much to inject based on your anatomy, muscle movement, treatment history, and goals. Daxxify units are unique to this product and cannot be directly converted to Botox or Dysport units.
Daxxify, Botox Cosmetic, and Dysport are all prescription neuromodulators. Each one temporarily relaxes certain muscles, but they have different active ingredients, dosing, and product details.
Treatment | Active ingredient | FDA-approved cosmetic use and duration information |
|---|---|---|
| Daxxify | DaxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm | Moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. In studies, more than half of participants had no or mild frown lines through six months. |
| Botox Cosmetic | OnabotulinumtoxinA | Frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Results may last up to four months. |
| Dysport | AbobotulinumtoxinA | Frown lines between the eyebrows. Results may last up to five months. |
Duration figures come from each product’s own studies, not a head-to-head comparison, and individual results vary. Many patients compare the areas they want to treat, how long results may last, and how often they prefer to return. Your provider can help you weigh those factors. See product details for Botox Cosmetic and Dysport.
Daxxify is FDA-approved to treat the glabella, the area where frown lines form between your eyebrows. Treatment is planned based on the muscles that cause these lines.
Your provider might talk about using neuromodulators for other lines caused by movement, like forehead lines or crow’s feet. Using Daxxify for these areas is not FDA-approved. Your provider can explain if another product or approach would be better for your goals.
Daxxify may be a good choice for adults who want to reduce moderate to severe frown lines and are looking for a neuromodulator that might last longer. The best treatment depends on your facial anatomy, muscle movement, health history, and what you prefer.
During your consultation, your provider will check the area, talk about your goals, and review any previous injectable treatments. Be sure to mention any neuromuscular conditions, past reactions to botulinum toxin products, or medications that affect nerves or muscles. Also let your provider know if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Daxxify should not be used in areas with active infection and may not be right for people with allergies to botulinum toxin or Daxxify ingredients.
At your appointment, you and your provider will talk about your goals, facial movement, treatment history, dose, placement, cost, results, and possible side effects. If you decide to go ahead, Daxxify is given as a series of small injections into specific muscles. Follow your provider’s preparation and aftercare instructions, and let them know when and where you last had Botox, Dysport, or another neuromodulator. Doses are not interchangeable.
Daxxify results do not last forever. In clinical studies for frown lines, more than half of people had no or mild lines for up to six months. Some may see results for about four to six months, but how long it lasts can vary as muscle activity returns.
Your provider can help you decide when to check your results and if a follow-up is needed. Daxxify should not be given more often than every three months. To keep your results, your plan should consider your facial movement and preferences. A follow-up can help adjust placement and dose if needed.
The cost of Daxxify at Aesthetic Assets depends on your treatment plan and the dose your provider recommends. Because Daxxify, Botox, and Dysport use different units, comparing prices per unit may not show which is the best value. Ask your provider for current pricing during your consultation.
If you are interested in Daxxify in Scottsdale, talk with a provider at Aesthetic Assets about your frown lines, your options, and the results you want. A full-face approach can look at facial balance and skin health together.
