When it comes to smoothing fine lines and softening wrinkles, neuromodulators are among the most popular non-surgical treatments available today. Whether you’re just starting to explore cosmetic treatments or you’re already familiar with injectables, understanding the differences between Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Daxxify can help you make an informed decision about what’s best for your needs.
In Beverly Hills, Dr. Tania Hassanzadeh offers personalized consultations to help you choose the right injectable for your aesthetic goals.
What Are Neuromodulators?
Neuromodulators, sometimes called neurotoxins, are injectable treatments that temporarily relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those that form from repeated facial expressions like frowning, squinting, and smiling. By relaxing these muscles, neuromodulators help smooth lines and prevent them from deepening over time.
The four most popular FDA-approved neuromodulators on the market today are Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Daxxify. While all these products share the same core function, each has unique characteristics that may make one more suitable for you than another.
Botox
Botox continues to be the most recognized and widely used neuromodulator. It’s known for its reliability, consistent results, and safety profile. Botox typically takes about 3–7 days to take full effect, and results can last up to 3–4 months.
Best for: First-time patients, those seeking subtle and predictable results, and individuals with mild to moderate expression lines.
Dysport
Dysport is another popular choice that tends to spread more widely after injection, making it ideal for larger treatment areas like the forehead. It usually kicks in faster than Botox, often within 2–3 days.
Best for: Patients who want quicker results and treatment for broader areas of the face.
Xeomin
Xeomin is often referred to as the “naked” neurotoxin because it does not contain any accessory proteins—just the active ingredient. This purity may reduce the risk of developing resistance to the product over time. Some also refer to Xeomin as the “actor’s neurotoxin” for its ability to maintain facial expression while softening lines.
Best for: Long-term users of neurotoxins or those concerned about developing resistance to repeated treatments, or individuals desiring a more natural result.
Daxxify
Daxxify is the newest FDA-approved neurotoxin and offers a longer-lasting result, often up to 6 months or more. It contains a unique peptide technology that helps the active ingredient bind more effectively, which may account for its extended duration.
Best for: Patients looking for longer intervals between treatments or wanting to maintain smoother skin year-round.
Choosing the Right Neuromodulator for You
Selecting the right neuromodulator depends on several factors, including your aesthetic goals, the areas being treated, your treatment history, and your lifestyle. Some patients prefer a longer-lasting option, while others may prioritize rapid results or the most natural feel.
