About Daxxify
Daxxify, which is often referred to as Daxi, is the most recent neuromodulator (neurotoxin) to have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of wrinkles.
What’s different about Daxxify is that for some, the effects can last a couple of months longer than Botox, yet the pricing is similar.
What Sets Us Apart
At FPSA, your Daxxify treatments are performed by our double board-certified facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Sean Delaney or Dr. Russell Kridel. This provides patients with the peace of mind that they are in the hands of a physician who focuses solely on the face and neck and the procedure is done in the safety and comfort of a medical office environment. In addition, Dr. Delaney and Dr. Kridel make sure patients are comfortable and experience very little discomfort during their treatment session, so patients can be given numbing cream or other medication if they desire. We believe it is important for patients to have highly skilled and trained hands that can tailor injections to your specific needs with greater finesse, rather than a one size fits all approach at many medical spas.
Administering Daxxify
Your Daxxify treatment will be performed by Dr. Sean Delaney or by Dr. Russell Kridel during an in-office appointment that takes about 30-45 minutes. Your treatment plan, including the dosage and injection location, is tailored specifically to your facial structure and aesthetic goals. There is no downtime and patients can return home or to work after their appointment.
Facial Plastic Surgery Associates Reviews
Dr Kridel is pays attention to detail & is very talented at his profession. He is a very sincere person. I would highly recommend him.
Amazing surgeon! - Dr. Delaney is the most down to earth surgeon I’ve ever met. He talks to you on a personal level is willing to discuss anything with you until your questions are answered. I never felt rushed in his office and his staff is wonderful. I am more than happy with the results of my surgery and feel 20 years younger! I highly recommend him for your cosmetic surgery needs!
It’s finally been a year since I had my nose worked on!! Almost a little over a year ago I found this place online after doing lots of research about plastic surgery facilities close to my area. The doctor I wanted my nose to be done by, was in New York, and I was sure I’d have my nose done by that surgeon, but it was set in stone in my mind that I was NOT going to travel 1,648 miles across the country to get a nose job. (i am scared of New York) So initially, i had NO idea who was experienced and no idea if there was a place close to me….but, I am SO glad I chose Facial Plastic Surgery Associates. After looking at pretty much everything on their beautiful website and plenty of reviews, I finally sent the email with my information, practically kicking my feet. I was so excited to change my life. It wasn’t long before I got a response from Ashley, (sorry if I misspelled) one of the many wonderful associates who work at the facility. She was so kind and made scheduling consultations, post op appointments, and even my surgery so easy. One of the more difficult choices of this journey was choosing the right doctor. To me it was very importing this person wasn’t going to mess up my face. I had two choices of experienced doctors, Dr. Kridel and of course, Dr. Delaney. I had heard great things about Dr. Kridel and how he was the one who trained Dr. Delaney. It was a hard choice, but Ashley guided me through the process and answered all my questions with grace. Ultimately, I chose the wonderful Dr. Delaney. Best decision everrrrr- and before I knew it, I was having my first appointment with him. Walking into the office the first day was pretty nerve racking. They were cleaning out the building because they were getting ready for a move to a new place. Even though it looked pretty empty, I was greeted with smiling faces and cheerful voices that made me feel welcome and safe. When I met dr. Delaney, it felt like we we’ve known each other for a long time! Very professional, but also very welcoming and pretty laid back. The conversation was easy and I didn’t feel nervous to be seen by him with how well he carries himself. He is extremely educated and well taught. He was able to answer every question and every concern with adequate knowledge. Once the surgery was scheduled, he made sure to tell me everything about it. What to expect during each step of the process. He didn’t sugar coat anything and made sure that I knew when things were going to get painful/difficult during the recovery. I highly respect his honesty. The surgery day came and I was as excited as one can be. My life was going to be changed FOREVER. My biggest insecurity was finally being corrected. As I was getting strapped in for the procedure, Dr. Delaney showed up and calmed my nerves. (besides telling me about the catheter) Soon, I was put under and OUT! It went quick and when I woke up, dr. Delaney was the first to tell me that the surgery went perfectly! A year later and I cannot tell you how happy I am with my results. Even after the first few months I was so thrilled about the way my nose looked. When Dr. Delaney first revealed my nose to me, I cried. I was a new, more confident person. To this day, all I can be, is thankful for Dr. Delaney and the wonderful staff at facial plastic surgery associates. Sorry for the long review, but I could not have chosen a better place to put my trust in changing my life forever.

What To Expect
With Daxxify the effects typically kick in within a couple of days of treatment and last about 4 to 6 months on average. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for a few hours.
Immediately following Daxxify injections, there may be some mild swelling and redness at the injection site. This will subside a few hours after the procedure.

About UsDAXXIFY FAQs
What is Daxxify?
Daxxify (daxibotulinumtoxinA or daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm) is a newer FDA-approved injectable medication used to temporarily improve the appearance of frown lines (wrinkles between your eyebrows and in your forehead) in adults. It is in the family of medicines known as neuromodulators, which includes Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin.
The main difference between Daxxify and Botox is how long they provide results. Daxxify results last longer than Botox, typically 2-3 times longer than Botox and the other neurotoxins.
Difference between Daxxify and Botox
The main difference between Daxxify and Botox is the formulation and how long it lasts.
DAXXIFY is the first product of its kind to use a peptide as a stabilizer, which means it doesn’t contain byproducts from either humans or animals of any kind with results that last an average of 6 months and up to 9 months. Daxxify results last longer than Botox, typically 2-3 times longer than Botox and other neurotoxins.
Best Candidates for Daxxify
Daxxify is an excellent choice for patients who have been using Botox, Dysport or other neurotoxins previously and simply want to be able to have longer lasting effects and fewer injections per year.
For patients that have never had a neurotoxin (muscle relaxer), Daxxify may not be the best choice. With a neurotoxin, the effects can not be reversed. If you don’t like the results you need to wait for it to wear off. Since Daxxify lasts longer, so if you don’t like the outcome, you will need to wait longer for the results to dissipate.
A good analogy would be trying a new hair color. It is much safer to try a temporary color first to make sure you are happy with the result before trying a new permanent hair color.
Importance of using skilled and trained injector
FPSA was selected as the first plastic surgery practice in the Texas Medical Center to offer Daxxify because our double-board certified facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Sean Delaney and Dr. Russell Kridel are recognized by their peers and patients as the best of the best in Houston.
You can feel rest assured that your Daxxify injections will be performed by a specialist who has the expertise, Dr. Delaney’s and, Dr. Kridel’s expertise in injection is key for a diserable outcome, particularly since Daxxify lasts longer.
Daxxify Scientific Studies
The FDA approved Daxxify based on clinical trial data collected on more than 2,700 patients, who received a total of 4,200 treatments. One month after injections, 98 percent of patients had little or no appearance of wrinkles. Half of patients were completely or nearly wrinkle-free at the injection area after six months, and some still had results after nine months.
Are there side effects?
In clinical trials, researchers did not observe any serious treatment-related side effects. The most common side effect seen in the clinical trials were headache, experienced by 6 percent of users.
How does Daxxify work?
Daxxify is a neurotoxin or neuromodulator like Botox and Dysport, so it works in a similar manner. Neuromodulators (also known as wrinkle relaxers) are designed to keep a nerve and muscle from communication. Neuromodulators temporarily relax the facial muscles, preventing them from creating or worsening facial lines and wrinkles.
