Revance (formerly Crown Laboratories)

Revance is the current operating name of the privately held company created after Crown Laboratories acquired Revance Therapeutics, Inc. in February 2025. Crown then announced that the combined company would operate under the Revance name from March 31, 2025. This sequence matters: Crown was the acquirer, but Revance is the current corporate brand. (acquisition announcement; name-transition announcement)

For the botulinum toxin market, Revance is most relevant as the developer and current company context for Daxxify, whose nonproprietary name is daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm. Corporate renaming did not change Daxxify’s product identity, U.S. indications, or product-specific potency units.

Revance’s current corporate history identifies the combined company as privately held and headquartered in Nashville. The same history preserves Johnson City, Tennessee as Crown Laboratories’ pre-combination headquarters context rather than presenting it as the combined company’s current headquarters.

The name Revance now works at more than one level. It is the combined company’s public-facing operating name, while Revance Therapeutics, Inc. and Crown Laboratories, Inc. continue to appear as legal entities within the group. Current Revance website terms identify Revance Therapeutics as the site operator and Crown Laboratories as an affiliate. (Revance terms of use)

Daxxify provides a separate regulatory layer. The current DailyMed record identifies Revance Therapeutics as the packager and lists it for active-ingredient manufacturing, finished-product manufacturing, and analysis. Those product-specific roles should not be replaced by the broader statement that Crown acquired the company. (DailyMed: DAXXIFY)

  1. Revance developed daxibotulinumtoxinA Revance’s current corporate history traces the biotechnology company’s work on peptide-assisted delivery and the clinical development of daxibotulinumtoxinA. (Revance: About Us)

  2. Daxxify received U.S. approvals in 2022 and 2023 FDA first approved Daxxify in 2022 for the temporary improvement of moderate to severe glabellar lines in adults. The U.S. indication expanded in 2023 to include treatment of cervical dystonia in adults. (FDA Drug Trials Snapshot; DailyMed: DAXXIFY)

  3. Crown acquired Revance in February 2025 Crown completed a tender offer and second-step merger on February 6, 2025. Revance’s former Nasdaq-listed shares were then delisted and deregistered. (completion announcement)

  4. The combined company adopted the Revance name in March 2025 Crown announced on March 31, 2025 that it would operate under the Revance name effective immediately. This was a corporate name transition, not a new Daxxify approval or formulation. (name-transition announcement)

  5. Post-acquisition leadership changed Revance’s current leadership page identifies Nadeem Moiz as CEO and Jeff Bedard as Founder and Executive Chairman. It also lists Conor Gallagher, Ph.D. as Chief Scientific Officer, Nick Crowe as Chief Operating Officer, and Steve Kreider as EVP and Chief Revenue Officer for Aesthetics and Therapeutics. (Revance leadership)

The DailyMed record updated January 7, 2026 continues to identify two U.S. indications: temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity in adults, and treatment of cervical dystonia in adults. A corporate acquisition, rebrand, or broader portfolio announcement does not extend those labeled uses. (DailyMed: DAXXIFY)

Daxxify is formulated with the RTP004 peptide excipient. That is a product-identity fact, not evidence that it is universally safer, stronger, longer-lasting, or clinically superior. The U.S. prescribing information also states that Daxxify potency units are specific to its preparation and assay and are not interchangeable with units of other botulinum toxin products.

The Revance / Crown relationship is best understood as a sequence rather than two parallel companies competing around Daxxify: Revance Therapeutics developed the product; Crown acquired Revance Therapeutics; and the combined company adopted Revance as its operating name.

The broader Revance portfolio includes aesthetics, regenerative, and consumer-skincare businesses, but those adjacent businesses do not change the toxin relationship. Daxxify remains the company’s botulinum toxin brand, and its identity, indications, units, and safety information remain governed by product-specific regulatory sources.
