Neuromodulators

Botox & Daxxify — Smooth, natural-looking results

What Are Neuromodulators?

Neuromodulators such as Botox and Daxxify are injectable treatments that temporarily relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles — the lines that form from repeated facial expressions like smiling, squinting, and frowning. When precisely placed by a skilled physician, they deliver subtle, natural-looking results that leave you looking refreshed, never frozen.

At Flawless MD, all neuromodulator treatments are performed by Un Hui Nam, MD, who customizes each treatment to your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Botox vs. Daxxify

Botox (Onabotulinumtoxin A)

The gold standard in wrinkle relaxation for over 20 years. Botox results typically last 3–4 months and is ideal for first-time patients or those seeking a predictable, well-studied treatment.

Daxxify (Daxibotulinumtoxin A)

A next-generation neuromodulator that is FDA-approved and formulated without human albumin, making it suitable for patients who prefer a clean-label formulation. Based on some studies, Daxxify results may last around 3–5 months, while other studies show results can last up to 7 months. Results can vary from person to person.

Common Treatment Areas

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines (glabellar / "11s")
  • Crow's feet (around the eyes)
  • Brow lift
  • Bunny lines (nose)
  • Lip flip
  • Chin dimpling
  • Neck bands (platysmal bands)
  • Jaw slimming (masseter reduction)

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Neuromodulators are appropriate for most healthy adults who wish to address dynamic facial lines or achieve preventive anti-aging benefits. You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Have noticeable wrinkles at rest or during expression
  • Want to prevent deeper lines from forming
  • Seek a non-surgical, minimal-downtime solution
  • Are not pregnant or breastfeeding

There is no required downtime. You may have slight redness or pinpoint marks at injection sites that typically resolve within an hour. We recommend avoiding exercise, alcohol, and lying flat for 4 hours post-treatment.

Dr. Nam's philosophy prioritizes natural-looking results. Precise dosing and placement ensure that you maintain full facial expression while significantly reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
