DAXXIFY® – also known as daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm – is a cutting-edge neuromodulator injectable designed to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. Unlike traditional neuromodulators, DAXXIFY® can often produce longer-lasting results and require fewer treatments for optimal effects. DAXXIFY® was originally developed to combat frown (glabellar) lines; however, it is frequently used to address other dynamic wrinkles, which appear as a result of repetitive facial movements.*

What Are the Benefits of DAXXIFY®?

In the hands of a qualified injector, DAXXIFY® can produce benefits such as: 

• Long-lasting effects (often up to six months or longer)

• Natural-looking results

• Ability to treat a range of facial areas

• A quick and convenient procedure 

• Little to no need for recovery time

Which Areas Can DAXXIFY® Treat?

The famously versatile DAXXIFY® can be used to treat a variety of facial areas where dynamic wrinkles commonly form. These concerns include:

• Glabellar lines (also known as “frown lines”): Vertical lines between the eyebrows

• Forehead lines: Horizontal lines that form from raising the eyebrows

• Crow’s feet: The lines that appear at the outer corners of the eyes when smiling or squinting

• Bunny lines: Lines that form on the nose when scrunching

• Chin dimples: Dimples that result from repetitive chin or jaw motion

• Neck bands: Signs of aging in the neck

What Does the DAXXIFY® Treatment Involve?

DAXXIFY® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals to the muscles responsible for facial expressions. This process involves the injection of daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm, a purified protein, into the targeted muscles. By inhibiting the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles, DAXXIFY® can smooth out the skin’s surface, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The innovative peptide formulation in DAXXIFY® – which is known as “Peptide Exchange Technology™” or “PXT” – generally makes for longer results than those of other neuromodulators (i.e. BOTOX® Cosmetic).*

Furthermore, the DAXXIFY® process is generally very quick and painless. After applying a topical aesthetic, we will gently inject the solution into the treatment area with a very fine needle. In most cases, the treatment only takes about half an hour. That said, we generally recommend patients undergo follow-up treatments every six months or so for optimal effects.

What Does the DAXXIFY® Recovery Entail?

After receiving DAXXIFY® injections, it is important to avoid intense physical activity for 24 hours; this can minimize the risk of bruising and swelling. We also advise you to protect your skin from excessive sun exposure and avoid tanning beds for a few days.

Common DAXXIFY® side effects include mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site; however, these typically resolve quickly. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, we encourage you to contact a medical professional. Provided you follow these guidelines, you are likely to enjoy the long-lasting benefits of DAXXIFY®.

Smooth, rejuvenated skin can be achieved with the new Revance® RHA® Collection of dermal fillers. These state-of-the-art injectable filler products embody the latest developments in flexible hyaluronic acid (HA) technology, allowing our providers to correct dynamic wrinkles and deep creases with the highest-quality results. Best of all, RHA dermal fillers can last for up to 15 months for most patients before retreatment is necessary.

What is Revance® RHA®?

The Revance RHA Collection is a family of next-generation hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, designed specifically to fill and smooth dynamic wrinkles and deep creases. While older HA dermal filler products may sometimes appear stiff and texturized in areas of dynamic facial movement, the long-lasting volume created with RHA fillers can flex naturally with facial expressions. When injected by experienced, highly trained injectors RHA fillers can provide youthful tissue structure and supple volumizing moisture that looks incredibly smooth and natural. RHA fillers are FDA-approved for the treatment of moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles and folds in adults who are at least 22 years old.

What Products Are in the Revance® RHA® Collection?

The Revance RHA Collection consists of three different dermal filler products: RHA® 2, RHA® 3, and RHA® 4. Each filler is uniquely formulated to achieve specific results in various regions of the face at different depths of injection. While RHA® 2 and RHA® 3 are designed to be injected into the mid-to-deep dermis level, RHA® 4 is ideal for injection into the deep dermis and superficial subcutaneous tissue. The RHA products that are right for your facial rejuvenation treatment will depend on a variety of factors that your injector will evaluate during your consultation. At Pinsky Plastic Surgery we are incredibly proud of the level of skill, artistry, experience, and training all of our injectors have achieved. You can rely on your injector to perform a detailed assessment of your skin and develop a customized treatment plan suited for your specific needs and goals. A combination of RHA products and injection techniques, as well as other treatment options like BOTOX® Cosmetic and Restylane® Kysse, may be recommended to deliver optimal results.

What Results Can I Expect After Treatment with Revance® RHA®?

While temporary swelling and bruising are common after RHA injections, results are immediately apparent. Side effects generally alleviate over a week following treatment and the quality of results usually show improvement in this time as well. Pinsky Plastic Surgery patients who have received RHA injections are typically very pleased with the outcome of their treatment and the smoother, more youthful appearance of their faces. For most individuals, RHA results can last up to 15 months. To maintain the facial volume achieved with RHA, we recommend follow-up treatments as needed. Your injector at Pinsky Plastic Surgery can evaluate the best time to schedule your next treatment.

How Much Does Revance® RHA® Cost?

The cost of treatment with Revance RHA filler depends on the number of syringes used to accomplish your facial rejuvenation. To find out how much treatment would cost to achieve your cosmetic goals, I recommend scheduling a consultation with me. Based on an evaluation of your face and skin, I can provide you with a price estimate for smoothing your wrinkles with RHA. To help make the cost of treatment more accessible and affordable I accept payment with credit cards and offer access to third-party financing.

Restylane® Kysse
Restylane Kysse is a next-generation hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is FDA-approved to smooth fine vertical lines along the lips (perioral lines) and provide lip augmentation. The unique formulation of Restylane Kysse includes tiny hyaluronic acid molecules and flexible cross-linking technology (called XpresHAn Technology™), making it one of the smoothest lip fillers available. The smooth consistency and flexibility of Restylane Kysse allows it to look and feel natural in the lips, and move with the dynamic expressions of the lips and mouth. In clinical trials reported by Galderma, results achieved with Restylane Kysse can last up to a year for most patients.

Restylane Refyne and Defyne are two hyaluronic acid-based products from the Restylane family, which are designed with XpresHAn Technology™ to smooth mild to deep facial wrinkles and restore subtle volume around the nose and mouth. The aesthetic outcome achieved with Restylane Refyne and Defyne can typically last up to a year before another treatment is necessary to maintain results.

Which Areas are Commonly Treated with Restylane® Refyne and Defyne?

Key areas commonly treated with Restylane Refyne and Defyne can include:

• Smile lines (nasolabial folds), which are wrinkles or creases that extend from the sides of the nose to the outside corners of the mouth.

• Marionette lines that descend from the corners of the mouth toward the chin.

• Wrinkles and creases around the lips.

Restylane® Silk

Restylane Silk is a smooth consistency, hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that is specially formulated and FDA-approved for lip augmentation and wrinkle reduction around the mouth. Restylane Silk is a member of the Restylane family and results typically last for up to six months or more.

Restylane® Lyft is composed of a specialized formula that is designed to be thicker than more traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, making it most effective for enhancing the cheeks, reducing deeper wrinkles and lines, and treating nasolabial folds (creases between the nose and mouth).

What happens during EMSCULPT treatments?

While most noninvasive body contouring treatments target unwanted fat, EMSCULPT builds muscle at the same time. EMSCULPT can tackle unwanted fat cells and stimulate muscle growth for a more sculpted appearance. EMSCULPT uses high intensity focused electromagnetic technology, or HIFEM®. The patented HIFEM device is placed on the target area or areas — multiple areas can be simultaneously treated during the approximately 30-minute sessions. Throughout the treatment, the electromagnetic technology forces the underlying muscles to contract intensely. Patients often describe it as feeling like an intense workout. These contractions encourage the growth of protein strands and new muscle fibers, which decreases unwanted fat cells at the same time. The electromagnetic technology simulates exercising, causing underlying tissues and muscles to rebuild and get stronger, leaving patients with a smoother, more fit appearance.

Are EMSCULPT results permanent?

While the fat loss from EMSCULPT can be permanent, the muscle effects typically last around six months or longer. It is recommended that patients get a series of 4 – 8 initial treatments, scheduled 2 – 3 days apart. For patients who want to maintain their EMSCULPT results, follow-up treatments are recommended every 3 – 6 months. It's important for patients to maintain their ideal weight, as weight gain after this body contouring treatment can alter their EMSCULPT results.

Despite your best efforts, contouring your body to your desired appearance may not be possible with diet and exercise alone, and healthy men and women are turning to EMSCULPT treatments to get extra help. This noninvasive treatment builds muscle while it burns fat — other noninvasive body contouring options only target pockets of unwanted fat. The highly focused electromagnetic energy used with EMSCULPT forces muscles to contract in a way not possible with exercise. In response to these contractions, the targeted muscle rebuilds itself and fat begins to melt away. EMSCULPT could give your body that extra push it needs to look fabulous without any discomfort or downtime.

The Glo2Facial is a non-invasive, three-step facial treatment that uses a handheld device to exfoliate, hydrate, and oxygenate the skin: 

• Oxfoliation

  OxyPods react with Primer Gel to exfoliate the skin and create a CO2-rich environment that prompts the body to send oxygen to the skin.

• LUX (Lite Ultrasound Experience)

  Micro vibrations smooth the skin and increase the skin's permeability to help nutrients absorb better.

• Detox

  A hands-free lymphatic massage reduces redness and puffiness, and infuses active ingredients into the skin.

The Glo2Facial is designed to target both the surface and interior layers of the skin, and can provide immediate and long-lasting results. Some say that after just one session, the skin looks more radiant, plump, and smooth. With regular treatments, the skin's tone and texture can improve, resulting in a more youthful complexion. 

The Glo2Facial is gentle and non-invasive, and works for all skin types.

Dermaplaning is a generally effective and safe exfoliation performed by gently skimming off the upper layer of dead skin cells, and in the process, removing much of the peach fuzz (vellus hair). This typically results in smoother, softer, brighter skin. Following dermaplaning, skin care products can penetrate more deeply and foundation makeup looks better on the smooth skin.
