Now that summer is fast approaching, we find ourselves busier and wanting to be social. Events, travel, and get-togethers start filling up our schedules. We, of course, want to look our best, as we are having fun. Some of us may consider getting our hair or nails done, whereas others may use neuromodulators to help refresh our look. With Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, and Jeuveau, we have been accustomed to these appointments occuring every 3-4 months. But what if we told you that there is now an option to go in only twice a year for the same benefits of less wrinkles and smoother, younger-looking skin? In this article, we will discuss Daxxify, the new long-lasting option in the neuromodulator game.
Dr. Li is a double-board certified plastic surgeon with significant expertise in neuromodulators, fillers, and injectables, including Daxxify, as part of his private practice based in San Jose and Los Gatos Bay Area California.
Daxxify is a new FDA approved neuromodulator, only available in certain practices across the country, and CA Aesthetics is happy to be among those select practices which offers it. Developed by Revance, Daxxify produces the same effects as Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, and Jeuveau – with a significant plus. In clinical studies, at least 50% of patients had a reduction of their unwanted facial wrinkles and lines for 6 months, and even up to 9 months, after being treated with Daxxify. This neuromodulator treats wrinkles in the same fashion as Botox by paralyzing targeted muscles, thereby reducing facial lines and creating a smoother look.
Daxxify’s ability to last twice as long is a unique feature which distinguishes it from all the other neuromodulator options on the market and is a result of its peptide composition. Daxxify does not contain any animal or human components that other neuromodulators may have. Since Daxxify lasts twice as long, some patients may worry if the medication is more aggressive or creates a more exaggerated result. The answer is no. The clinical effect is the same as the other brands. Again, it just lasts longer!
Have you ever found yourself missing out on your neuromodulator appointment because life just got too hectic? With Daxxify, your stress lessens knowing that its effects last longer, and therefore fewer appointments are needed to keep you looking younger and fresher. That means less time in the office, and more time doing the other things you love in life. If it’s time to treat your “11s” or other wrinkles and lines that bother you, consider Daxxify as a potential option. We encourage you to schedule a consultation with us and see if Daxxify is suitable for you!
