DAXXIFY™ in NYC

DAXXIFY is the only long-lasting, peptide-powered frown line treatment. The first innovation of its kind in over two decades, DAXXIFY injections in NYC at JUVA Skin & Laser Center smooth frown lines for a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance.

JUVA is proud to announce its participation in the FDA trials for DAXXIFY. We are one of the first practices in the country to provide the treatment and are more experienced than most doctors due to our already treating over forty patients in those trials several years ago.

What is DAXXIFY?

Decreased collagen production, cellular changes, genetics, environmental damage, and sun damage all form facial lines. These lines are also formed by repeated muscle contractions such as frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows, causing the skin to furrow and fold.

DAXXIFY works below the surface to temporarily reduce underlying muscle activity for fewer lines and wrinkles. It’s FDA-approved to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe lines between the eyebrows, with results that last six months for most and up to nine months for some.

The active ingredient in DAXXIFY is a purified protein called botulinum toxin type A, which has improved the look of moderate to severe frown lines for over 20 years. Similar injectables include:

While these wrinkle reducers all contain botulinum toxin type A, all frown line treatments require a unique ingredient to stabilize the protein. BOTOX Cosmetic uses human serum albumin (HSA) as its stabilizer, while Dysport uses HSA as a stabilizer and cow’s milk protein as a protectant. DAXXIFY is the only formulation with a novel peptide as a stabilizer and does not contain human or animal byproducts.

What happens during a DAXXIFY treatment?

During your injectable consultation, we will examine your skin and discuss your concerns to determine whether DAXXIFY is the best treatment. If you are concerned about discomfort, discuss options for minimizing pain, such as applying a topical numbing cream.

After cleansing your face, we will inject DAXXIFY only into the significant muscles causing the wrinkles. Treatments last just five minutes and are nearly painless, feeling like a pinch. And because DAXXIFY requires minimal downtime, you can return to your daily routine immediately.

What are the benefits of DAXXIFY?

The defining DAXXIFY benefit is its longevity, lasting longer than any other neuromodulator:

At least 50% of patients in clinical studies had no or minor frown lines six months after DAXXIFY treatment
Between 3% and 5% of patients in clinical studies had no or minor frown lines nine months after treatment
In other safety studies, 5% to 17% of patients still had noticeable improvement nine months later

Another significant benefit is that the safety and efficacy of DAXXIFY are well established. With more than 20 years of research featuring the largest ever phase 3 clinical trial program conducted for a frown line treatment, they studied more than 2,400 people across different ages and with varying types of skin. The study concluded that there were no notable differences in how DAXXIFY performed with varying skin types.

Other DAXXIFY benefits include:

Smooths crow’s feet, frown lines, and horizontal forehead lines
Can prevent future wrinkles from developing
Fast, convenient, and comfortable
Minimally-invasive in-office treatment
You may only need to visit once or twice a year to maintain the results you want

DAXXIFY FAQ

DAXXIFY and BOTOX are neuromodulators that relax the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles. However, DAXXIFY is the only long-lasting frown line treatment powered by a peptide and does not contain human or animal byproducts.

Does DAXXIFY have any side effects?

The most common side effects observed in DAXXIFY clinical trials occurred within one to two weeks after injection and lasted only a short while. These included injection site redness, pain, and swelling.

How much does DAXXIFY cost?

The cost depends on how much DAXXIFY you need to achieve your aesthetic goals and which areas are being treated. During your initial consultation, we will discuss approximate prices to prepare you.
