Daxxify™

Daxxify^™ is a member of the family of treatments known as neuromodulators. These injectables all work the same way: They reduce activity in the specific muscles where they are injected. This is very beneficial for anyone who wants to look younger and more relaxed, because muscle activity—in the form of contractions—is the main contributor to facial lines known as dynamic wrinkles.

Dynamic wrinkles appear over time as repetitive facial expressions pull the skin into the same furrows and creases over and over. Each time you scrunch your eyebrows, for example, you fold the skin in a particular way. As this happens again and again for years and decades, the skin between the eyebrows begins to show signs of the constant activity. Frown lines—called 11’s because of the way the look like the number—become faintly visible, and then increasingly prominent. Some dynamic wrinkles can eventually be seen all the time because of how deeply the lines become etched into the skin.

By blocking contraction-triggering messages sent to muscles via the nervous system, Daxxify^™ allows the muscles to stay at rest. This means the lines are no longer as obvious, because there are no contractions pulling the skin into a telltale 11—even as the surrounding muscles continue to do their job of conveying emotions through various expressions.

Anyone who comes to the Well Lounge with a desire to refresh their appearance starts with a consultation that allows our team to develop a plan designed to provide maximum results. Our injectors find that Daxxify^™ appeals to our Newtown-based clients because of its effectiveness and longevity.

Each treatment session involves injections that take mere minutes to complete. The entire process can be wrapped up in the amount of time it takes to get lunch. This convenience is thanks to the simplicity of Daxxify^™ and the skill and talent of our injectors.

The actual injections feel like a pinch to the forehead, which is over very quickly. Your comfort is a high priority for our team, so please let us know if you have any particular concerns related to injections or needles. We will work with you and offer strategies that can help to make the Daxxify^™ process go as smoothly as possible.

Daxxify^™ takes several days to begin working. During this time, you will likely see some minor side effects, including slight swelling and redness at the injections site. This coloring and sensation will fade on its own, and most people feel comfortable enough to get right back to their normal daily activities as soon as their treatment session is done.

Results from the muscle-relaxing ingredient in Daxxify^™ appear in five days to a week, with the forehead reaching its fully relaxed appearance at about two weeks. Frown lines can remain at bay for an average of six months. Some patients will see their results last for longer: up to nine months if conditions are right.

In addition to Daxxify^™, the neuromodulator family also includes BOTOX^®, Dysport^®, and Xeomin^®. All of these injectables can be used to reduce frown lines, with BOTOX^® also being FDA approved for treating forehead lines and crow’s feet.

Facial lines that form due to collagen loss, as well as hollows that develop because of a reduction in facial volume, can be treated with dermal fillers like Juvéderm^® and Restylane^®.
