After decades, a new neuromodulator category has arrived. DAXXIFY® is the first and only peptide-powered, FDA-approved frown line treatment with a median duration of 6 months.
See results as early as the next day and typically within two days. Results are slow to wear off.*
*At least 50% of patients in clinical studies had no or minor frown lines 6 months after treatment.
DAXXIFY® is different. It’s the only long-lasting frown line treatment powered by a novel peptide.
Injectable frown line treatments have been around for over 20 years, but nearly 90% of people wish their results lasted longer.
Until now, there was never an injectable wrinkle treatment formulated with a peptide
The DAXXIFY® peptide helps stabilize the active ingredient, instead of using human blood products like conventional frown line treatments. It also has no animal byproducts.
DAXXIFY® is the only prescription frown line treatment made in the United States. Created in California, it continues to be manufactured there today.
DAXXIFY® is FDA approved to smooth moderate to severe lines between the brows. It is the only frown line treatment powered by a peptide.
The active ingredient in DAXXIFY® is a purified protein called botulinum toxin type A.
DAXXIFY® could be for you if you would like to improve the look of your frown lines with a product that’s fast-acting, long-lasting and delivers a smooth look.
All frown line treatments require a special ingredient to stabilize botulinum toxin A, the protein responsible for helping smooth moderate to severe frown lines. For instance, Botox® Cosmetic uses human serum albumin (HSA), a blood product, as its stabilizer. Dysport®, another frown line treatment, uses HSA as a stabilizer and cow’s milk protein as a protectant.
DAXXIFY® is unique because it is the only formulation that uses a novel peptide as a stabilizer and does not contain human or animal byproducts.

In short, no, and here’s why. Units are like fingerprints—they are a proprietary measurement of a treatment’s unique potency.
Because of the differences in how treatments are formulated and tested, you cannot compare or convert Units between them, just like you cannot compare 2 fingerprints.
A clearer way to understand dosing is to look at how many nanograms of active ingredient (botulinum toxin type A) a product has.
Double the Units does not mean double the dose.
DAXXIFY®
Approved frown line dose: 40 Units
Amount of active ingredient: 0.18 nanograms
Approved frown line dose: 20 Units
Amount of active ingredient: 0.18 nanograms
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 Dysport® isn’t 2.5x the dose of Botox® Cosmetic. Each product is unique. Talk to Dr. Samuels about DAXXIFY® and your aesthetic goals.
DAXXIFY® is manufactured in California, and the only prescription frown line treatment made in the United States. Conventional frown line treatments are manufactured in other countries, then imported into the United States.
The safety and efficacy of DAXXIFY® is well established, with more than 20 years of research. In fact, DAXXIFY® has been studied in the largest-ever phase 3 clinical trial conducted for a frown line treatment and included more than 2,800 people across different ages and with different skin types. DAXXIFY® was studied in patients with varying skin types.
No, not necessarily. The most common side effects observed in clinical trials occurred within one to two weeks after injection and lasted only a short while. This is consistent with other frown line treatments.
DAXXIFY® is well-studied, with no serious treatment-related side effects seen in large-scale clinical trials.
DAXXIFY® injections are typically performed with a small needle and people treated with frown line treatments say the injection feels like a pinch.
If you are concerned about discomfort, talk to one of our injectors about options for minimizing pain, such as icing the area or applying a topical numbing cream. Treatment with DAXXIFY® requires minimal downtime, and you can return to your daily routine immediately after your appointment.
There is a possibility that the area around the injection site will swell, turn red, and cause pain or tenderness from the injection itself; however, these side effects are typically very minor and go away after a few hours or days.
If you’re like most people, you probably get a frown line treatment around twice a year. But here’s the thing: conventional treatments only last 3–4 months. If you are not able to get treated every 3-4 months, that means you may spend the next 2-3 months of the year with those frown lines staring back at you between treatments. That’s up to 4-6 months of total wear off time per year!
In clinical trials, at least 50% of patients showed results in frown lines at 6 months.
You may see results with DAXXIFY® as early as the next day after treatment, and typically within two days.
You may see results with DAXXIFY® as early as the next day after treatment, and typically within two days. You should see noticeable results within a two-week time frame. You may experience mild injection-related bruising. In most cases, bruising heals within a few days after injection.
