Neuromodulators with the active ingredient of Botulinum toxin A have been the gold standard in non-surgical wrinkle prevention and treatment for three decades. The formula has remained similar since its launch with only a few variations coming out. Daxxify—the newest neuromodulator to be FDA-approved—added a peptide to the formula which is one of the largest innovations in the formula since its introduction. Northwest Face & Body offers the best Daxxify injections in Kirkland and Bellevue.
Understanding Daxxify
Daxxify is a neuromodulator medication that freezes specific muscle movements. In the cosmetic world, this is used to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles on the glabella—better known as frown lines. When injected into the muscle, it prevents the microscopic movements of the muscle that contribute to wrinkles without hindering full movement of the brows.
The biggest difference between Daxxify and its predecessors such as Botox and Dysport are that it adds a peptide to the formula. This also acts as a stabilizing agent which means that no human or animal byproducts are needed. It is the only truly vegan neuromodulator available.
How Do Peptides Work?
A peptide refers to a short chain of amino acids that link together to form proteins. Adding a peptide to the Daxxify formula causes it to attach to the active ingredient—Botulinum toxin A. The peptide helps the Daxxify absorb better into the muscle and act faster than the neurotoxin without the peptide. This may also contribute to why Daxxify lasts longer than other neuromodulators.

Before & After Daxxify Treatment In Kirkland
Consultation
Before treatment, the patient will meet with their injector to review the medications and expected results. The injector will also want to ensure that the patient is a good candidate for Daxxify. This will include discussing the patient’s goal for the treatment, their medical history, lifestyle, and other aspects of the injections. If the patient is a good candidate, Daxxify treatment in Kirkland may commence during the same appointment. In other cases, the patient can schedule their injections.
Daxxify Injections
The first step to administering the injections will involve disinfecting the injection site. Numbing cream is available, but not usually necessary. The injector will constitute and mix up the adequate amount of Daxxify.
The injector will ask the patient to make various expressions so they can observe where and how the wrinkles form. The patient will then relax their face. The injector will then use a tiny needle to inject based on the pattern of the wrinkles. The injections usually take under fifteen minutes.
Aftercare
- Limiting strenuous exercise
- Skipping skincare such as retinol the night of the injections
- Do not bend over or lay down for a few hours after the procedure
- Avoid touching the area when not necessary
