At Wick Facial Plastics in Cleveland, DAXXIFY treatments are performed by Dr. Elizabeth Wick, a double board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon. She brings extensive training and an artistic eye to every facial procedure, ensuring natural-looking results.
Conveniently located in Beachwood, Wick Facial Plastics proudly serves patients from Cleveland, Shaker Heights, Pepper Pike, Solon, Chagrin Falls, Westlake, Rocky River, Cleveland Heights, University Heights, and throughout Northeast Ohio and beyond.
What Is DAXXIFY?
DAXXIFY is an advanced cosmetic injectable used to reduce wrinkles and rejuvenate the face and neck. Like BOTOX® and other neuromodulators made with botulinum toxin type A, it temporarily relaxes targeted muscles to restore a more youthful look.
What sets DAXXIFY apart is its proprietary peptide-based formulation. Unlike other FDA-approved neuromodulators, which are stabilized with human serum albumin, DAXXIFY uses a peptide technology designed to support longer-lasting wrinkle relaxation. This means patients can often maintain their results with just two treatments per year, compared to three or four with other neuromodulators.

Why Choose DAXXIFY?
DAXXIFY appeals to many of our Cleveland-area patients for its:
- Rapid results: Initial improvements can appear within just one to two days.
- Extended longevity: Patients typically enjoy smoother skin for six months or longer, reducing the need for frequent touch-ups.
- Highly purified, peptide-based formulation: Unlike BOTOX and Dysport®, DAXXIFY is stabilized with a proprietary peptide rather than human serum albumin or animal-derived stabilizing proteins, making it the first and only FDA-approved neuromodulator of its kind.
- Flexible treatment planning: DAXXIFY can be an excellent option for patients with busy schedules or those who simply prefer fewer treatment visits throughout the year.
While DAXXIFY offers unique advantages, it isn’t the right choice for everyone. Dr. Wick also offers BOTOX and Dysport and will recommend the neuromodulator that best aligns with your facial anatomy, cosmetic goals, and desired treatment schedule.
What Does DAXXIFY Treat?
DAXXIFY treats many of the same concerns as other neuromodulators by relaxing targeted facial muscles.
Common treatment areas include:
- Forehead lines: Horizontal creases across the forehead
- Frown lines (“11s”): Vertical lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet: Fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes
- Bunny lines: Wrinkles along the bridge of the nose
- Chin dimpling: Uneven, “orange peel” texture on the chin
- Lip lines (perioral lines): Vertical lines around the upper lip
- Masseter muscles: Square-shaped or broad jawline
- Neck bands (platysmal bands): Prominent vertical bands in the neck
What to Expect During a DAXXIFY Appointment
DAXXIFY treatments are performed in our Beachwood office and usually take 15 to 30 minutes. After evaluating your facial movement and discussing your treatment goals, Dr. Wick will perform your injections using a fine needle. While patients generally do not consider the injections painful, a topical numbing cream can be applied to minimize discomfort if you prefer.
What to Expect After DAXXIFY
There is little to no downtime after a DAXXIFY treatment. While you may begin to see improvements within 24-48 hours, it will take about 10-14 days to arrive at your final result.
Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection sites may occur. These symptoms usually subside within a few hours to a few days.
To ensure the best possible results, Dr. Wick will provide personalized aftercare instructions. In general, patients should not lie flat or massage the treated area for several hours. Patients should also avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, hot tubs, and other activities that significantly increase body temperature for 24 hours.
How Long Does DAXXIFY Last?
While individual results vary, many patients experience smoother skin for six months or longer, making DAXXIFY the longest-lasting cosmetic neuromodulator currently available. Factors such as muscle strength, treatment area, and dosage all influence longevity.
As your muscle activity gradually returns, wrinkles will slowly reappear. Dr. Wick will advise you on the optimal retreatment schedule for maintaining your desired look.
