If you are considering Daxxify, you may be wondering how long does it last? Let’s talk about the treatment, what to expect, and how long your results will last.
What is Daxxify?
Daxxify is a new botulinum toxin injectable. It softens dynamic facial wrinkles very similarly to Botox. It blocks nerve signals to prevent facial muscles from contracting. When the muscles remain at rest, the skin doesn’t crease up and wrinkles appear better. It can also prevent new wrinkles from forming.
Treatment Process
As with other treatments, you begin with a consultation. The provider will help you decide if Daxxify is right for you and then you can get started. After applying a topical anesthetic for your comfort, the provider injects precise amounts of Daxxify in the targeted area. You won’t see immediate results because it takes a few days for the product to become absorbed in the muscle and begin working.
Results
All botulinum toxin treatments are temporary. Most types of neuromodulates last for three or four months. The results gradually wear off and then the patient needs to get maintenance injections to preserve the results. How quickly this happens depends on the type of toxin you choose, how quickly your body metabolizes the toxin, and your facial anatomy.
How Long Does Daxxify Last?
Daxxify is the ONLY neuromodulator that can last for up to six months on average. It can last up to nine months for some patients. What makes Daxxify so special? This neurotoxin is stabilized by Peptide Exchange Technology. These peptides boost the ability of the botulinum toxin to block muscles from contracting. So, you get longer lasting results.
How Often Do I Need Daxxify Treatments?
This depends on your face, your age, how pronounced your wrinkles are, and more. After your first treatment, pay attention to when your results begin to fade and talk to our team of specialists about timing from there.
