Facial aesthetics are one of the hottest topics today, with more and more people coming in to get a facial aesthetic procedure done. In this article, we will clarify what facial aesthetics are, whom they serve, and why you might be interested in them.

Here, at Coombe Dental Care, we offer expert facial aesthetics for our clients. These cater to a wide range of aesthetic concerns, and are conducted with the utmost care, and professionalism.

So what are facial aesthetics?

Basically, when we say facial aesthetics, we’re talking about 100% safe and effective facial injections that use fluids to either block nerve messages to muscles or relax the face muscles. They’re generally used to boost volume, or re-define certain facial features, and give a more youthful appearance.

Because of a dentist’s deep knowledge of facial structure and muscles, our dental experts are by far the most qualified medical professionals to administer facial aesthetics procedures to our patients.

While the facial aesthetics injections can’t yield miracle results, they certainly can soften the effects of the passage of time, and plump up and recondition certain facial features.

What types of facial aesthetics are there?

So what areas, exactly, do our facial aesthetics practices target?

1.   Anti-Ageing

By far the biggest one of our services are the anti-ageing injections, also known as Botox. These can be administered in various areas of the face, such as the forehead, around the eyes, as well as the lower face and neck area. They can diminish the appearance of common conditions, such as:

• Crow’s feet
• Worry lines
• Frown lines
• Sagging
• Gummy smile (a condition where the muscles of the face involuntarily lift up the top lip, giving you an unnatural grin)

Anti-ageing injections generally soften the effects of stress, as well as other emotions (for instance, wrinkles caused by smiling or laughter). They also relax the face muscle for a rejuvenated, more serene appearance. Usually, an anti-ageing injection will have long-lasting results (usually around five months).

They are also sometimes used in the underarm area, to treat excessive sweating, by intercepting the nerves that cause this condition.

2.   Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injections that use hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the human body, to refill and rejuvenate certain key areas. Hyaluronic acid injections can replenish the hydration levels from within, and are used to smooth out certain worry lines, or wrinkles.

Dermal fillers are also a popular option for adding more volume, and smoothness to the lips. Dermal fillers last roughly nine months, so you’re guaranteed good value for your money.
