How is DAXXIFY® different from other frown line treatments?
Unlike other frown line treatments like Botox® Cosmetic and Dysport®, which use human or animal products to stabilize the key ingredient, DAXXIFY® takes a unique approach. It utilizes a specially designed peptide for stabilization, making it a completely vegan option. This peptide helps keep the formula effective for longer, ultimately leading to smoother frown lines.
DAXXIFY® gives patients a better look vs baseline by smoothing even the deepest lines. 64% of patients achieved an improvement in the appearance of skin texture at week 2.
*Results as early as the next day and typically within 2 days. At least 50% of patients in clinical studies had no or minor frown lines for over 4 months after treatment.
Will DAXXIFY®units match my current treatment?
Units are unique. Each treatment (Botox®, Dysport®, DAXXIFY®) has its own unit system for measuring potency. They are like fingerprints – not directly comparable.
A more accurate way to compare doses is by looking at the amount of active ingredient (botulinum toxin type A) in nanograms.
- Daxxify® example: Approved frown line dose is 40 units amount with 0.18 nanograms of active ingredient.
- Botox® comparison: Approved frown line dose: 20 Units Amount of active ingredient: 0.18 nanograms.
- Dysport® comparison: Approved frown line dose: 50 Units Amount of active ingredient: 0.27 nanograms.
As you can see, despite the number of Units, DAXXIFY® isn’t 2x the dose of Botox® Cosmetic and Dypsort® isn’t 2.5x the dose of Botox® Cosmetic. Each product is unique. Talk to one of our Advanced Aesthetic Injectors about DAXXIFY® and your aesthetic goals.
The potency Units of DAXXIFY® are not interchangeable with other preparations of other botulinum toxin products.
It is always best to schedule a consultation with one our experienced injectors to discuss you needs.
Preparing for Your DAXXIFY® Treatment

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for DAXXIFY® (daxibotulinumtoxinA-Ianm) injection
DAXXIFY® may cause serious side effects that can be life threatening. Get medical help right away if you have any of these problems any time (hours to weeks) after injection of DAXXIFY®:
• Problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing due to weakening of associated muscles can be severe and result in loss of life. You are at the highest risk if these problems are pre-existing before injection. Swallowing problems may last for several months.
• Spread of toxin effects. The effect of botulinum toxin may affect areas away from the injection site and cause serious symptoms that include loss of strength and all-over muscle weakness, double vision, blurred vision and drooping eyelids, hoarseness or change or loss of voice, trouble saying words clearly, loss of bladder control, trouble breathing, and trouble swallowing.
Do not receive DAXXIFY® if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in DAXXIFY® (see Medication Guide for ingredients); had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product such as rimabotulinumtoxinB (MYOBLOC®), onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®/BOTOX® Cosmetic), abobotulinumtoxinA (DYSPORT®), incobotulinumtoxinA (XEOMIN®) or prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs (JEUVEAU®); or have a skin infection at the planned injection site.
DAXXIFY® dosing units are not the same as, or comparable to, any other botulinum toxin product.
Tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including any side effects from botulinum toxin products, including dry eye; breathing, swallowing, bleeding, or heart problems; plans to have surgery; weakness of forehead muscles; drooping eyelids; have had surgery on your face; are pregnant or breastfeeding or plan to become pregnant or breastfeed.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Using DAXXIFY® with certain other medicines may cause serious side effects. Do not start any new medicines until you have told your healthcare provider that you have received DAXXIFY® in the past.
Especially tell your healthcare provider if you have received any other botulinum toxin product in the last 4 months or any in the past, and exactly which product you received (such as BOTOX®, BOTOX® Cosmetic, MYOBLOC®, DYSPORT®, XEOMIN®, or JEUVEAU®). DAXXIFY® may cause serious side effects, including allergic reactions (such as itching, rash, redness, swelling, wheezing, trouble breathing, or dizziness or feeling faint), heart problems (such as irregular heartbeat and heart attack), and eye problems (including dry eye, reduced blinking, and corneal problems).
Tell your healthcare provider or get medical help right away if you experience a serious side effect.

The most common side effects of DAXXIFY® include headache, eyelid drooping, and loss of ability to move the muscles in your face.
These are not all the possible side effects of DAXXIFY®.
