Dermal fillers
Dermal filler treatment plumps up facial lines and wrinkles to help the skin look more youthful. Fillers usually consist of sterile hyaluronic acid gels made from non-animal sources. As we age, the skin’s natural hyaluronic acid is lost, giving rise to lines, wrinkles and folds. Fillers are also used for lip enhancement and for shaping facial contours.
- Local anaesthetic is used to keep you comfortable.
- The filler is injected in just a few minutes, and the effect is visible straight away.
- Results are not permanent and vary with the area treated and your skin type. Your clinician will explain what to expect.
Wrinkle-relaxing treatments
If you would like to reduce lines on your face without surgery, wrinkle-relaxing treatments can soften expression lines. Dentists have a thorough understanding of facial anatomy, which helps them carry out this delicate work precisely.
Areas that can be treated include frown lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, forehead lines and lines around the mouth. Results usually appear within a few days and wear off over time. Suitability is always assessed at a face-to-face consultation.
