It is a well-known fact that as we age, our skin naturally loses its elasticity and volume, leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. While there are a plethora of moisturisers on the market, and you can drink plenty of water, there is no way to stop the ageing process. However, there are a number of facial aesthetic treatments available that can help to improve the appearance of your skin and restore a more youthful appearance and our dentist in Edgware is fully trained and experienced in this field. At Manor Lodge, we offer two popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures: dermal fillers and wrinkle correction. Dermal fillers are injectable substances that are used to plump up the skin and fill in wrinkles and folds. There are a number of different types of dermal fillers available, each with its own unique properties and benefits.
The other popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure is wrinkle correction. We use injections that contain botulinum toxin type A, which is FDA approved like dermal fillers, and similarly does not come from animal sources. It contains a neurotoxin that is injected into the muscles to relax them and prevent them from forming wrinkles. Wrinkle correction is a very effective treatment for wrinkles that are caused by muscle movement, such as frown lines and crow’s feet.
Why should I visit a dentist in Edgware for facial aesthetic treatments?
So, why are dentists ideal for delivering facial aesthetic treatments? This is a valid question considering dentists are primarily known for dealing with teeth! However, there are a number of reasons why we offer these treatments. Firstly, dentists are highly trained and experienced in performing injections. Secondly, dentists have a deep understanding of the anatomy of the face, which is essential for ensuring that injections are placed correctly. What’s more, dentists have a strong commitment to patient safety and satisfaction and our practice meets the highest health and safety standards. This should give you the reassurance you need that you will be able to receive the treatment you want in a clinical environment by a medical professional who has the right level of training you would expect for such procedures.
What are wrinkle correction and dermal fillers?
Wrinkle correction and dermal fillers are two non-surgical cosmetic procedures that can be used to improve the appearance of the skin. Wrinkle correction smooths out wrinkles and fine lines using injections of botulinum toxin type A, while dermal fillers use injectable substances of hyaluronic acid gels to plump up the skin and fill in wrinkles and folds.
What do the procedures involve?
Both procedures are relatively quick and painless. They take minutes to administer and do not require any downtime afterwards, so you can continue with your day.
How long do the results last?
The results of wrinkle correction and dermal filler procedures can vary, depending on the specific procedure being performed and the individual’s body. However, in general, the results of wrinkle correction procedures can last for an average of 3 months, while the results of dermal fillers can last for 6 to 12 months.
