Get to Know the New(ish) Kid On The Block: Daxxify

Have you heard of and do you already love Daxxify? This neuromodulator received FDA approval in 2023 and has been making waves ever since. Or maybe we should say "smoothing out waves."

Daxxify is a next generation tox treatment that patients have reported kicks in faster, lasts longer, and improves skin texture. Let's dig into those claims to see why Daxxify might be your perfect match.

Daxxify uses a novel peptide that forms a magnet-like bond with the nerve cells to quickly deliver its active ingredients. This tight bond keeps the tox firmly in place and makes it last longer for the treated muscle.

This new peptide formulation is also why Daxxify is safer for people who may have reacted poorly to tox in the past. The peptide replaces human-derived or animal-derived components that other neuromodulators use. Without these components, some consider Daxxify to be a "cleaner" version of tox, as it contains fewer components.

The incredible part? Most patients observe measurable improvement within 2 days of treatment. This is far quicker than many neuromodulators on the market. We love the flexibility this gives our patients' schedules. It means less lead-up time ahead of your big day, holiday plans, or vacation.

Because the strong bond to the nerve cell, there is very little spread from Daxxify. This means we are able to treat precision injection points carefully and intentionally. Because there is very little spread, most patients find that Daxxify lasts 4-6 weeks longer than other tox treatments as it remains firmly in place at the injection point.

The last magic of the peptide formula is that many patients find it also works as a skin treatment -- not just a tox. There are currently ongoing clinical studies researching the science behind why this happens and how the peptide makes your skin smooth and glowy in addition to relaxing your 11s.

Some people hesitate to try a new tox. I like the one I've been using - we get the results I want, so what else is there? To that we say Don't be afraid of innovation. As more studies dig into the differences between neuromodulators and the field of aesthetic medicine learns more, it's worth trying something new.
