Injectables have become a mainstay in the aesthetic industry, and the same can be said here at Seiler Skin. Over the course of my career, I’ve treated thousands of patients and trained fellow practitioners around the world using my advanced understanding of injectables, facial anatomy and how the two work hand-in-hand. While my approach to injectables may not change, sometimes the tools I use do. I aim to bring the latest, greatest and most importantly proven to work products to the practice — and that’s why I’m excited to introduce Daxxify as our newest injectable treatment!

Daxxify — sometimes referred to as “Daxxy” or “Daxi” for short — is an FDA-approved injectable treatment used for fine lines and wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement. Daxxify comes from Revance, the same brand behind the RHA line of fillers that have transformed our practice in recent years. Similar to Botox, it targets areas in the face and neck that are prone to “dynamic lines” over time. By lessening the intensity of muscle movement in the treated area while still allowing for natural expression, Daxxify reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to provide a more youthful appearance.

Now, you may be asking yourself, what’s the difference between Daxxify and Botox? The key differentiator is Daxxify’s structure. The novel synthetic peptide used in this injectable stabilizes the active ingredient, meaning the injectable itself lasts longer. This provides patients with longer lasting results that for many double the length of treatment results compared to Botox.

Daxxify is slightly more expensive than Botox per treatment session, but the payoff in treatment results is well worth the investment. In fact, by incorporating Daxxify in place of Botox, patients can cut down on the overall cost of their treatment plans in the long run and lessen the frequency of treatments. Saving both time and money? It’s a win-win!

As a reminder, Daxxify covers the same issues Botox does, which includes:

• Forehead lines
• Fine lines between the eyes
• Crow’s feet
• Nose (bunny lines)
• Vertical lines around the mouth and lips
• Chin wrinkling/dimpling
• Neck/jawline laxity
• Jawline flaring (TMJ, teeth grinding, etc.)
• Migraines/tension headaches
• Hyperhidrosis (overactive sweating)

One thing I want to make clear is that we are not outright replacing Botox with Daxxify. Rather, we recommend patients already receiving Botox or those interested in the treatment consider Daxxify depending on their overall treatment plan. For many patients who currently receive Botox for multiple areas, we suggest swapping out Daxxify for one of those treatment areas to really see the difference it can make in terms of long-lasting results.

I couldn’t be more excited to bring Daxxify to Seiler Skin, and know that both existing and new patients will come to love the results of this game-changing injectable.
