Longer-lasting smoothing for natural-looking results
Daxxify® is a newer FDA-approved wrinkle relaxer for frown lines between the brows. Instead of the human albumin used in some other products, it’s stabilized with a peptide, a formulation designed to help results last longer.
In clinical studies, many patients kept their results for around six months, and some longer, which can mean fewer appointments each year.
Like other neurotoxins, Daxxify® works by relaxing targeted muscles so the skin above them creases less, with no incisions and no downtime.
If you love your results from other wrinkle relaxers but wish they lasted longer, Daxxify® is worth discussing at your consultation.
Our Boston team keeps Daxxify® results refined and balanced, so people notice you look well rested, not that you had something done.
Daxxify® is designed for patients who want smooth results with fewer touch-ups.

Areas we treat
Daxxify® is FDA-approved for frown lines, and your provider may recommend it for other areas based on your goals.
Forehead lines
Horizontal lines that appear when you raise your eyebrows. Careful dosing smooths them while keeping natural brow movement.
Frown lines
The vertical “11s” between the brows that can make you look tired or stressed even when you’re not.
Crow’s feet
The fine lines that fan out from the corners of the eyes when you smile or squint.
Subtle brow lift
Strategic placement can raise the tail of the brow slightly for a more open, refreshed eye area.
Preventive treatment
Lighter doses started early can help keep expression lines from becoming permanent creases.

Small raised spots at the injection sites usually fade within 15 to 30 minutes.
Many patients notice softening within a few days, with full results at about two weeks.
Minor bruising or a mild headache can happen but is uncommon and short-lived.
Results typically last around six months for many patients, and many patients book their next visit in advance.
