Xeomin & Daxxify
At Cortes Aesthetics, neurotoxins like Xeomin and Daxxify are used to relax facial muscles and smooth out wrinkles. While they both belong to the same family of treatments (neuromodulators), they serve slightly different roles based on their chemical makeup and how long they last.
Xeomin and Daxxify are advanced wrinkle relaxers designed to smooth expression lines while keeping your natural movement intact. A Botox alternative, treatments are customized to soften fine lines, without freezing your features. Subtle, precise, and tailored to your goals.

Xeomin: The "Naked" Pure Toxin
Xeomin is often referred to as the "pure" neurotoxin because it undergoes a unique precision-manufacturing process that removes all unnecessary "accessory proteins." Unlike other brands, it contains only the active ingredient needed to relax muscles.
The "Clean" Benefit:
Because it lacks extra proteins, your body is less likely to develop antibodies against it. This makes it the ideal choice for "tox-resistant" patients who feel other brands have stopped working for them.
The Look:
It is praised for its "light" feel, providing a crisp, refreshed appearance while allowing for a very natural range of facial expression.
Timeline:
Results typically emerge in 3 - 5 days and last the standard 3 - 4 months.
Daxxify: The Peptide Powerhouse
Daxxify is the newest innovation in aesthetics and the only toxin formulated with specialized Peptide Technology. It is also the first "vegan" toxin, as it contains no human or animal-derived blood products (albumin).
The Longevity Benefit:
While standard toxins last about 12 weeks, Daxxify is engineered to stay attached to the nerve ending longer. On average, results last 6 months, with some patients seeing effects for up to 9 months.
The "Daxxi-Glow":
Beyond smoothing wrinkles, many patients report a subtle radiance or "glow" to the skin in the treated area, a unique byproduct of its peptide-enhanced formula.
Timeline:
It is incredibly fast-acting, with results often visible within 24 - 48 hours.
Which One is Your Match?
At Cortes Aesthetics, the choice between Xeomin and Daxxify depends on your specific goals, lifestyle, and how your body metabolizes treatments.
Choose Xeomin if:
You prefer a minimalist, highly purified formula or if you’ve noticed your current wrinkle relaxer isn't as effective as it used to be. It is the gold standard for maintaining long-term "tox" sensitivity.
Choose Daxxify if:
You have a busy schedule and want to minimize clinic visits. If you are tired of your results fading after 10 weeks, Daxxify offers the high-performance endurance needed to keep you smooth twice as long.
