About Daxxify

What Is Daxxify?

Daxxify (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm) is an FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin designed to temporarily relax the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow's feet. Unlike traditional botulinum toxin formulations, Daxxify uses a novel peptide stabilizer instead of human serum albumin, which contributes to its extended duration of action.

How Daxxify Differs from Other Neurotoxins

The key distinction is longevity. Clinical studies demonstrate that Daxxify maintains wrinkle-smoothing results for a median of six months, compared to the three-to-four-month duration typical of Botox and similar neurotoxins.

My Aesthetic Doctor offers Daxxify as a next-generation option for patients who want fewer office visits without compromising the refined, natural-looking results that define Dr. Fakhre's approach.

Who Benefits from Daxxify

Daxxify is suited for adults who currently use neurotoxins and want longer intervals between treatments. It is also an excellent choice for patients new to injectables who prefer a treatment that minimizes the number of maintenance appointments each year.

Treatment Details

Daxxify Treatment Areas

Treatment Areas

Dr. Fakhre uses Daxxify to address dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial muscle movement. The most common treatment areas include glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows), horizontal forehead lines, and lateral canthal lines (crow's feet).

My Aesthetic Doctor may also use Daxxify for off-label areas when clinically appropriate, including bunny lines, lip flip, and platysmal bands in the neck.

Units and Dosing

Daxxify dosing follows a unit-based system similar to other neurotoxins. Dr. Fakhre determines the precise number of units during your consultation based on muscle strength, treatment area size, and your desired outcome. A typical glabellar treatment uses 40 units of Daxxify.

The Peptide Exchange Technology

Daxxify's extended duration comes from its proprietary Peptide Exchange Technology. This peptide-based stabilizer enhances the neurotoxin's binding affinity at the neuromuscular junction. The practical result for patients at My Aesthetic Doctor is sustained muscle relaxation without increasing the dose.

Benefits

Benefits of Daxxify

Longer-Lasting Results

The primary advantage of Daxxify is duration. With results lasting up to six months, patients at My Aesthetic Doctor can maintain smooth, relaxed skin with just two treatments per year instead of three or four.

Fewer Office Visits

Longer intervals between treatments mean fewer appointments. For busy patients in Los Angeles, this translates to less time spent in the office and more consistent results between sessions.

No Human Serum Albumin

Daxxify is the first neurotoxin to use a synthetic peptide stabilizer rather than human serum albumin. My Aesthetic Doctor finds that some patients prefer this formulation for personal comfort with the ingredient profile.

Natural, Refined Results

Dr. Fakhre's injection technique emphasizes precision over volume. Whether using Daxxify for frown lines or forehead creases, the goal at My Aesthetic Doctor is always natural expression — never a frozen appearance.

Process

The Daxxify Process at My Aesthetic Doctor

STEP 01

Step 1: Personalized Consultation

Dr. Fakhre begins with a detailed facial assessment at our Larchmont office. She evaluates your muscle movement patterns, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to determine if Daxxify is the right neurotoxin for you.

STEP 02

Step 2: Treatment Planning

Based on the assessment, Dr. Fakhre maps injection points and calculates the precise Daxxify dosage. My Aesthetic Doctor creates a treatment plan that balances wrinkle reduction with natural facial expression.

STEP 03

Step 3: Injection

The procedure typically takes 15 to 20 minutes. Dr. Fakhre uses ultra-fine needles to deliver Daxxify into targeted muscles. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief pinch at each injection point.

STEP 04

Step 4: Post-Treatment and Follow-Up

There is no downtime after Daxxify. You can return to normal activities immediately. My Aesthetic Doctor schedules a two-week follow-up to assess your response and make any refinements if needed.

Candidacy

Ideal Candidates

Daxxify is appropriate for adults in good health who want to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles. Ideal candidates include current neurotoxin users looking for longer results and first-time patients who want a low-maintenance treatment plan.

When Daxxify May Not Be Recommended

Patients with known hypersensitivity to botulinum toxin or those with active infections at proposed injection sites should not receive Daxxify. Dr. Fakhre reviews your full medical history during the consultation to confirm suitability.

My Aesthetic Doctor prioritizes patient safety over treatment convenience. If Daxxify is not the best option for your goals, Dr. Fakhre will recommend an alternative.

Before Your Appointment

Avoid blood-thinning medications and alcohol for 48 hours prior to treatment. My Aesthetic Doctor provides a detailed pre-treatment checklist during your consultation to ensure optimal results.

Day of Treatment

The injection session takes 15 to 20 minutes. Mild redness or pinpoint bruising at injection sites is possible but typically resolves within hours.

Results Timeline

Initial effects become visible within one to two days, with full results developing over seven to fourteen days. Dr. Fakhre notes that many Daxxify patients at My Aesthetic Doctor see peak results that hold steady through the four-to-six-month window.

Maintenance Schedule

With Daxxify's extended duration, most patients at My Aesthetic Doctor schedule retreatment every five to six months — approximately two visits per year.
