What Is Daxxify?
Daxxify (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm) is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause frown lines. It was FDA-approved in 2022 for glabellar lines, the "11s" between your brows. It uses a peptide stabilizer instead of human serum albumin, which is part of why it lasts longer. Other areas, such as the forehead and crow's feet, are treated off-label at the provider's discretion.
What Areas Does Daxxify Treat?
Daxxify is versatile, addressing several common areas of facial aging:
- Frown lines (the "11s"): The vertical lines between the eyebrows. This is Daxxify's FDA-approved treatment area.
- Forehead lines: Horizontal lines that form when you raise your brows.
- Crow's feet: Fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes.
- Bunny lines: Small creases on the sides of the nose.
- Frown lines (glabellar): FDA-approved use.
- Forehead lines, crow's feet, and bunny lines: off-label, based on your anatomy and goals.
Treatment of areas beyond frown lines is based on your injector's clinical judgment and will be discussed during your consultation.

Daxxify vs Botox vs Dysport:
Which Is Right for You?
All three smooth dynamic wrinkles. The main differences are how long
results last and how quickly they appear.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your visit takes 15 to 30 minutes.
- Consultation: Heather reviews your goals, medical history, and facial movement.
- Preparation: Skin is cleansed, and numbing is available if you want it.
- Injections: Small amounts go into targeted muscles, with mild pressure or a quick pinch.
- Aftercare: You leave with written instructions, and makeup is fine right away.
Combining Daxxify with
Other Treatments
Daxxify relaxes the muscles that cause expression lines, but it does not add volume. For patients who also notice hollowing, thinning lips or loss of facial structure, Daxxify pairs well with dermal fillers and Sculptra or lip filler. Your injector can build a combined plan that smooths lines and restores volume for a balanced, natural result.
What Happens During Your
Daxxify Appointment
The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and highly precise:
- Personalized Consultation: Your provider evaluates your facial anatomy, identifies target areas, and designs a customized plan.
- Preparation: The skin is cleansed, and a topical numbing agent may be applied for comfort.
- Injection: Tiny amounts of Daxxify are carefully administered into the targeted muscles, typically causing only mild pressure or tingling.
- Post-Treatment Guidance: Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and minimize side effects.
Overall, the treatment generally takes 15–30 minutes, making it a convenient option for busy patients.
How Long Does Daxxify Last?
Daxxify works quickly and lasts longer than traditional wrinkle relaxers:
- Day 5 to 7: Many patients begin to notice muscles relaxing
- Weeks 2 to 4: Full smoothing is visible
- Around 3 months: The typical point when movement gradually returns
- Up to 4 months: Some patients hold results even longer
How long your results last depends on your metabolism, the muscle strength in the treated area and your dose. Many patients book touch-ups only twice a year.
In clinical trials, results lasted a median of about 6 months, and some patients reached 9 months. Results vary by metabolism, dose, and treatment area.

Is Daxxify Safe? Side
Effects to Know
Common side effects include headache, redness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites, and mild, temporary eyelid or brow heaviness. Rarely, the toxin can spread beyond the injection area. Seek care immediately for trouble swallowing or breathing, or for muscle weakness beyond the treated area.
Who should not get Daxxify:
Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding, has an infection at the injection site, has a known allergy to botulinum toxin, or has a neuromuscular disorder. We review your history at every consultation.
Ideal candidates are adults who:
- Want to reduce dynamic facial wrinkles
- Prefer non-surgical, minimally invasive solutions
- Seek long-lasting results with fewer treatments
- Are in good overall health
- Have realistic expectations about outcomes
Daxxify is not recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a neuromuscular condition such as myasthenia gravis, have an allergy to any of its ingredients, or have an infection at the treatment site. A consultation confirms whether it is right for you.
Before and After Your Daxxify Treatment
Before your appointment:
- If your doctor approves, avoid blood thinners, fish oil, aspirin and alcohol for 24 to 48 hours to reduce bruising
- Attend a consultation to discuss your areas of concern and aesthetic goals
- Receive a personalized treatment plan
After treatment:
- Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness is normal and resolves quickly
- Makeup may be applied immediately
- Avoid strenuous activity, excessive heat, or rubbing injection sites for several hours
- Results gradually appear over 2–4 weeks
Aftercare Tips to Maximize Results
To extend and enhance the effectiveness of Daxxify:
- Avoid rubbing or massaging treated areas for 24 hours
- Remain upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment
- Avoid strenuous activity, saunas, or heat exposure on the day of treatment
- Follow your injector’s recommendations for follow-up sessions
