For years, BOTOX® has been the go-to injectable for smoothing wrinkles and preventing new ones from forming. More recently, DAXXIFY® has emerged as an alternative, offering a longer-lasting solution for reducing dynamic lines. While both treatments are neuromodulators that relax facial muscles to minimize wrinkles, they have key differences that may influence your choice when visiting the medical aesthetic team at Lasky Skin Center in Beverly Hills.
How Do BOTOX and DAXXIFY Work?
Both BOTOX and DAXXIFY contain botulinum toxin type A, which blocks nerve signals to targeted muscles, softening wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements. The result is a smoother, more youthful look. These treatments are commonly used for forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet.
While BOTOX has been trusted for decades, DAXXIFY distinguishes itself with a peptide-enhanced formula designed to improve longevity. This means that you may enjoy their results for a longer period between appointments.
How Long Do Results Last?
So just how long do the effects remain visible for BOTOX and DAXXIFY? BOTOX typically lasts about three to four months, requiring consistent maintenance to sustain results. DAXXIFY, on the other hand, may last up to six months or longer.
If you are looking to extend the time between your treatments, DAXXIFY may be a convenient option. However, individual results vary, and factors such as your metabolism, lifestyle, and muscle activity can influence overall longevity.
Which One Is Right for You?
Both injectables are effective, but the best choice depends on your aesthetic goals, treatment frequency preference, and how your body responds to neuromodulators. If you prefer a longer duration between visits, DAXXIFY may be better. However, sticking with what works might be smarter if you’re accustomed to BOTOX and satisfied with its effects.
