What Is Daxxify?
Daxxify is a botulinum toxin product FDA approved to help smooth moderate to severe lines between the brows. It is the only long-lasting frown line treatment powered by a peptide with results that last on average 6 months and up to 9 months for some.
The active ingredient in Daxxify is a purified protein called botulinum toxin type A.
Why does Daxxify have a peptide?
All frown line treatments require a special ingredient to stabilize botulinum toxin A, the protein responsible for helping smooth moderate to severe frown lines. For instance, BOTOX Cosmetic uses human serum albumin (HSA), a blood product, as its stabilizer. Dysport, another frown line treatment, uses cow’s milk protein in addition to HSA.
Daxxify is unique because it is the only formulation that uses a novel peptide as a stabilizer and does not contain human or animal byproducts.

Before and Afters
What to Expect From the Procedure
Daxxify injections are typically performed with a small needle and people treated with frown line treatments say the injection feels like a pinch.
If you are concerned about discomfort, talk to your injector about options for minimizing pain, such as icing the area or applying a topical numbing cream. Treatment with Daxxify requires minimal downtime, and you can return to your daily routine immediately after your appointment.
There is a possibility that the area around the injection site will swell, turn red, and cause pain or tenderness from the injection itself; however, these side effects are typically very minor and go away after a few hours or days.
You may see results with Daxxify as early as the next day after treatment, and typically within two days.
Is Daxxify safe?
Daxxify was studied in the largest-ever clinical study for a frown line treatment and included more than 2,800 people across different ages and skin types. Here are some things you should know about Daxxify:

- The active ingredient in Daxxify is botulinum toxin type A, an ingredient that has been used in frown line treatments for more than 20 years.
- 96% of people treated with Daxxify were satisfied with their results.
