DAXXIFY

DAXXIFY is an FDA-approved injectable cosmetic procedure used to treat moderate to severe glabellar lines. The treatment, which is an alternative to Botox, is also used to help prevent and treat wrinkles from developing between the eyebrows, but last longer!

Glabellar lines, which are commonly referred to as frown lines, are some of the most frustrating facial wrinkles to develop. They’re located between the eyebrows, which is a prominent area of the face, and they often make us appear older, exhausted, and even sad or angry. Fortunately, you don’t necessarily need to accept these unsightly wrinkles as part of your face. If you’re interested in a simple way to eliminate your glabellar lines, DAXXIFY in Glendale may be just what you need.

What Are The Benefits of DAXXIFY

Daxxify offers all of the following benefits to those looking to be rid of their frown lines:

Smooths glabellar lines and forehead wrinkles
Makes the face look more youthful
Provides long-lasting results
Improved self-esteem
Quick, simple procedure

How Does DAXXIFY Work?

Just like Botox, DAXXIFY is a daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm with the active ingredient botulinum toxin type A. When the neurotoxin is injected into the muscles beneath the skin, it prevents them from communicating with the nerves. This stops the muscles from contracting, which smooths out the skin and greatly reduces facial lines.

Because of DAXXIFY’s innovative peptide exchange technology, it can be produced without animal or human byproducts. This allows the neurotoxin’s active component to form a stronger connection to the body, which gives DAXXIFY longer-lasting results than other injectable wrinkle treatments.

What Should I Expect During the Procedure?

If you’re interested in Daxxify treatment, the first step will be a quick consultation with Dr. Orloff. She’ll evaluate your goals and help you determine if Daxxify is the best option for your aesthetic needs. She’ll also ask you about things like your medical history, allergies, and current medications.

As for the treatment, it will be a simple outpatient procedure lasting for only around 20 to 30 minutes. First, we will sanitize and numb the area by cooling it with ice. Next, we will use a very fine needle to inject the Daxxify into the facial muscles. Once the treatment is finished, you’ll be able to return to your normal daily activities almost immediately.

How Long Is the Recovery Time?

Like other similar injectable treatments, DAXXIFY does not require any real recovery process or downtime. Although you’ll need to avoid rubbing the injection sites while your skin heals, and could use a cold pack to reduce any redness that may occur, but you won’t have to wait at all to return to your typical routine.

When Will You Start To See Results After DAXXIFY?

Usually, you will start to see the results of Daxxify treatment changes after 2 days, but it can take up to 10 days. Typically, the results of Daxxify last for at least six months and can sometimes remain for up to nine months.

Am I a Candidate for DAXXIFY?

If you’re an adult in search of a simple way to remove your glabellar lines, you might be a good candidate for DAXXIFY. Ideal candidates for the treatment should meet the following requirements:

Have moderate to severe frown lines that you’d like reduced
Be in generally good physical health
Have reasonable expectations for the treatment
Be free of allergies to any of DAXXIFY’s ingredients
Be free of cardiovascular disease and neuromuscular disorders

Are There Any Side Effects?

Daxxify has been known to cause side effects in some patients. Most of these symptoms are minor and will disappear on their own within a few days. The most common side effects of the treatment include:

Injection site pain, swelling, bruising, redness, or itching
Headaches
Facial numbness
Droopy eyelids

In rare cases, patients may experience more serious side effects, including trouble breathing or swallowing and serious allergic reactions. It is also possible for the neurotoxin in the treatment to spread to other parts of the body, which can result in botulism.

Shortness of breath
Hives
Swelling of the lips or tongue
Muscle weakness
Blurry vision
Slurred speech
