DAXXIFY®

DAXXIFY® in Newport Beach

DAXXIFY® is a powerful injectable that can help smooth out wrinkles and frown lines. What sets it apart from treatments like Botox® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, Dysport®, and Xeomin® is its unique peptide technology. This innovative ingredient helps Daxxify last longer than similar treatments, letting you enjoy a smoother, more youthful appearance for a longer period. 

While Daxxify, aka Daxi, might be the new kid on the block when it comes to neuromodulators, several clinical trials have proven its safety, effectiveness, and unique benefits, including the fact that it can last up to 9 months, while other neuromodulators typically last 3-4 months. This is why Newport Beach plastic surgeon Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva and her team of expert aesthetic injectors are proud to offer this cutting-edge wrinkle reduction treatment to Orange County women and men.

How Does DAXXIFY® Work?

Here’s how Daxxify works:

  • Your Newport Beach injector will inject a small amount of Daxxify into the areas you want to treat, like your forehead, crow’s feet, or frown lines.
  • Daxxify works by blocking the nerve signals that tell your muscles to contract. This helps relax the muscles and smooth out wrinkles.
  • Daxxify’s formula contains special ingredients that can help stimulate collagen production. Collagen is important for keeping your skin looking plump and youthful.
  • As your muscles relax and collagen production increases, your skin will look smoother and more youthful.

Is DAXXIFY® Right For Me?

Daxxify is particularly well-suited for individuals with thicker muscles or deeper creases. Its potent effects can smooth out even the most stubborn wrinkles. If you’ve struggled to achieve satisfactory results with other treatments, Daxxify might be the answer you’ve been looking for.

Daxxify is generally safe for most healthy adults, but some might be better candidates than others. Here’s a breakdown:

  • If you have minimal sagging or drooping skin in the areas you want to treat, Daxxify is likely a good option.
  • Daxxify is particularly effective for people with thicker muscles or deeper wrinkles.
  • If you typically require a higher dose of other neuromodulators like Botox to see results or if your results don’t last long, Daxxify might be a great choice.
  • Daxxify can be a good option for people with low-set brows, as it’s less likely to worsen their brow position than other neuromodulators.

What Can I Treat With DAXXIFY®?

Daxxify is a powerful neuromodulator that can address a variety of wrinkles and other conditions. Here’s a breakdown of its versatility:

  • Frown lines: Daxxify is FDA-approved to treat glabellar lines, the vertical lines between your eyebrows. These lines are a common sign of aging, and Daxxify can effectively smooth them out.
  • Forehead wrinkles: Daxxify can also target the horizontal lines on your forehead, giving you a more youthful appearance.
  • Crow’s feet: The lines around your eyes, known as crow’s feet, can be significantly reduced with Daxxify treatment.
  • Neck bands: Daxxify can help smooth out the horizontal lines on your neck, often known as neck bands.
  • Excessive sweating: If you’re struggling with excessive sweating in your palms or armpits, Daxxify can provide relief.
  • TMJ symptoms: Daxxify can help reduce the symptoms of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, including jaw pain and grinding.

When Will I See Results?

You should start seeing results from your Daxxify treatment within a couple of days and the final results will shine through in around a week.

How Long Do DAXXIFY® Results Last?

Daxxify is a standout among wrinkle treatments for its ability to provide lasting results. While other similar treatments might offer temporary improvements for about 3-4 months, Daxi can keep your wrinkles at bay for at least six months. This means fewer appointments and more time to enjoy your youthful appearance.

Aftercare and Healing

After your Daxxify injections, here are some tips for a smooth recovery:

  • Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for a couple of days.
  • Keep the treated area out of the sun and away from extreme heat for a few days.
  • Refrain from drinking alcohol for at least 24 hours.
  • Avoid intense workouts for about 12 hours.
  • Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E for 48 hours.
  • Cold compresses can help with swelling and redness.
  • If you’re feeling uncomfortable, Tylenol can help.
  • Don’t lie down flat for the first few hours after your treatment.

How to Prepare for DAXXIFY®

Before your Daxxify appointment, here are some tips to minimize bruising:

  • Hold off on blood-thinning medications and herbal supplements like aspirin, NSAIDs, vitamin E, and fish oil for about two weeks before the treatment.
  • Avoid drinking alcohol for a couple of days before your appointment.
  • You can use a topical arnica cream or take an oral arnica tablet before the treatment to help reduce bruising.
Daxxify can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for at least six months, longer than any similar treatment.

How Much Does DAXXIFY® Cost in Newport Beach?

RealSelf says a Daxxify treatment on average costs around $950, but it can range from $420 to $2,200. The price will depend on several factors, including the units needed. 

Daxxify generally costs slightly more than Botox. Considering Daxxify’s longer-lasting effects it might be a more cost-effective option in the long run. You could save money if you need two Daxxify treatments per year instead of three Botox treatments.

Ultimately, the best way to determine the cost of your Daxxify treatment is to consult with one of our experienced Orange County aesthetic injectors. We can look at your specific needs and give you a more accurate quote.

DAXXIFY® vs. BOTOX®: What’s the Difference?

Daxxify is a game-changer in the world of wrinkle treatments. It’s the first to use a peptide to stabilize the toxin, which means it can last longer than some similar products. Unlike Botox, which typically lasts 3-4 months, Daxxify can keep your wrinkles at bay for a whopping 6-9 months. This means fewer appointments and more time enjoying your smoother skin.

Another unique feature of Daxxify is it is completely free of animal-based components and human serum albumin. This makes it a great option for those with allergies or sensitivities.

Plus, Daxxify stimulates collagen production, which naturally helps your skin look smoother and younger.

Another bonus? Daxxify starts working faster than Botox. You’ll see results in just a day or two, compared to the 10-14 days it takes for Botox to kick in.

If you’re looking for a longer-lasting wrinkle treatment, Daxxify might be the perfect choice.

Daxxify has been extensively studied and shown to be safe, with minimal side effects.

Is DAXXIFY® Safe?

Daxxify has undergone rigorous testing, is approved by the FDA, and is considered an effective, safe, and reliable option for treating moderate to severe wrinkles. The active ingredient, botulinum toxin type A, has a long history of safe use in wrinkle treatments. You can trust Daxi to deliver results without compromising your safety.

Like any medical procedure, Daxxify can have some side effects. These are usually mild and temporary and might include:

  • Redness and swelling at the injection site
  • Temporary bruising
  • Headache
  • Drooping eyelids
  • Facial asymmetry

It’s important to report any serious side effects to us right away. These can include:
