Daxxify is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that softens frown lines the way Botox and Dysport do, and many of our patients find it lasts a few weeks longer. At Self Skin Studio in Wilmington, NC, we offer Daxxify alongside Botox and Dysport, and your injector will help you pick the one that fits how often you want to come in.
How long does Daxxify last?
Most neuromodulators wear off in about 12 weeks. Our patients tell us Daxxify tends to last around three weeks longer than that. Everyone metabolizes these products differently, so your own timeline can run shorter or longer, and your injector will adjust at your next visit.

Daxxify vs Botox: what actually differs
All three products relax the muscles that cause lines, and we use them on the forehead, frown lines, crow's feet and neck. What changes is the path to get there.
Daxxify is made with a peptide, and we describe the finish as smooth and glowy. It also comes with a different unit count. You need roughly twice as many Daxxify units as Botox, which is why its price per unit looks lower. The lower per-unit price does not mean a lower total. Daxxify costs more per treatment than Botox for most people, and what you are paying for is the longer stretch between visits.
We suggest Daxxify when someone wants fewer appointments a year. We suggest Botox when someone wants the product with the longest track record. Neither is a wrong choice, and your injector can walk you through both at your visit.
Who Daxxify is a good fit for
Daxxify tends to suit people who:
- want fewer touch-ups through the year
- like the idea of a longer stretch between appointments
- are comfortable paying a higher amount at each visit in exchange for that
It may not be the right pick if you are brand new to neuromodulators and want to see how your face responds to a more familiar product first. Your injector will ask about your goals, your schedule, and your budget before choosing.
What the appointment looks like. The visit is quick, with little downtime. Temporary swelling or redness at the injection sites usually settles within a couple of hours, and bruising is uncommon..
What Daxxify costs at Self Skin Studio
We price neuromodulators per unit, and each product uses a different unit. Botox is $13 a unit and Dysport is $4.25 a unit. Daxxify is $8 a unit. Daxxify's per-unit price is lower because it takes about twice as many units as Botox to get its longer-lasting result, so compare the total for your treatment, not the unit price.
Members save $0.60 a unit on Daxxify. Your injector will give you an exact total before anything is injected.
