If you’re looking for a way to smooth wrinkles with minimal maintenance treatments, Daxxify® may be the answer. This advanced injectable softens expression lines to refresh your appearance and requires less frequent touch-ups than other neuromodulators, such as Botox® and Dysport®.
At Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery, Daxxify® injections are performed by experienced medical providers under the guidance of board-certified dermatologists to ensure natural-looking results. At our six office locations across the Houston area, every treatment is tailored to your facial anatomy, muscle activity, and long-term goals.
What Is Daxxify®?
Daxxify® is an FDA-approved injectable wrinkle relaxer. Like Botox® and other neuromodulators, it works by relaxing the facial muscles responsible for expression lines, such as:
- Glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows, or the “11s”)
- Forehead creases
- Crow’s feet
Daxxify® is unique among neuromodulators due to its formulation and extended longevity. In addition to being highly purified, it uses a peptide-based stabilizing system instead of animal-derived proteins, which contributes to its longer-lasting outcomes.
Our Approach to Daxxify® Treatments
At Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery, we carefully plan Daxxify® placement and dosing to:
- Maintain natural facial movement
- Avoid heaviness or over-relaxation
- Support balanced, symmetrical results
What to Expect During Your Daxxify® Appointment
Daxxify® treatments are performed at our Fulshear, Heights, Kingwood, Pearland, River Oaks, and Vintage Park locations. Appointments typically take about 15 to 30 minutes.
During your appointment, your provider will evaluate your facial movement patterns, identify the ideal injection sites, and administer a series of targeted injections. A topical numbing cream is available if desired.
What to Expect After Daxxify® Injections
Daxxify® requires little to no downtime. You may experience mild redness, swelling, and bruising after your appointment, but these effects are temporary and usually subside within a day or two.
To help ensure optimal results, you’ll be provided with detailed aftercare instructions. It is important to follow those closely, including directions to avoid lying flat for four hours after your injections and to postpone intense exercise and exposure to excessive heat for 24-48 hours.

What to Expect During Treatment
Botox®, Dysport®, and Daxxify® injections are administered in-office at our Fulshear, Pearland, Kingwood, Heights, River Oaks, and Vintage Park clinics. Appointments often take just 15 to 30 minutes.
Your provider will begin by evaluating your facial anatomy and how your muscles move when you make expressions such as squinting, frowning, or raising your eyebrows. This detailed assessment allows for precise injection placement, which is essential for achieving natural-looking results.
The treatment site will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort. A series of injections will then be performed using a very fine needle.
Daxxify® Results
Patients often notice improvements within one to two days. Results will continue to refine over the next several days. Patients can expect to see the full effect of their treatment within 10-14 days.
Daxxify® lasts up to six months. Your provider will guide you on when to schedule follow-up appointments to maintain consistent results.
Daxxify® vs. Botox® vs. Dysport®
Daxxify®, Dysport®, and Botox® are all effective wrinkle relaxing injectables that use botulinum toxin type A. They temporarily prevent targeted muscles from contracting and causing creases in the overlying skin.
However, they differ in how they’re formulated, how fast they work, and how long results may last. Daxxify® stands out for its:
- Quick onset
- Animal product-free, peptide-based formulation
- Longevity of results
During your consultation, we’ll help you decide whether Daxxify® or another option is the better fit based on your treatment history and preferences.
