Is Daxxify® Better Than BOTOX® Cosmetic?

When it comes to reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, BOTOX® Cosmetic has long been the gold standard. However, with the introduction of Daxxify®, a new contender in cosmetic injectables, many patients wonder: Is Daxxify better than BOTOX Cosmetic? 

Dr. Maria Lombardo, a board-certified general surgeon, cosmetic surgeon specialist, and a diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, offers both treatments at Lombardo Cosmetic Surgery in Rancho Mirage, CA. This blog will help you decide which is right for you. 

Longevity and Effectiveness

One of the most significant differences between Daxxify and BOTOX Cosmetic is how long the results last.

BOTOX Cosmetic typically provides results that last 3 to 4 months. In contrast, Daxxify is known for its longer-lasting effects. Outcomes can last up to 6 months or even longer in some cases.

The extended duration of Daxxify’s results is due to its unique formulation. Daxxify contains a peptide-enhanced formula that allows it to bind more effectively to the muscles. This prolongs the treatment’s benefits, meaning fewer appointments and a longer-lasting youthful look.

Safety and Side Effects

Both Daxxify and BOTOX Cosmetic are FDA-approved and have well-established safety profiles. Patients can expect similar side effects from both treatments, including:

• Mild redness
• Swelling
• Bruising at the injection site

These issues generally resolve themselves within a few days.

Both treatments are safe. However, it’s important to note that choosing an experienced provider is vital to achieving the best results.

Dr. Lombardo and her staff have extensive experience with both Daxxify and BOTOX Cosmetic. This ensures you receive a treatment customized to your needs.

Who Should Consider Daxxify?

Daxxify may be ideal for individuals seeking longer-lasting outcomes with fewer appointments. If you’ve been using BOTOX Cosmetic and are curious about trying something new, Daxxify also offers an exciting alternative.

It doesn’t matter if you’re new to cosmetic injectables or looking for a change. Daxxify could be the solution you’ve been looking for.
