Why Choose Facial Treatments from a Dentist?
When patients come to us and want to improve how they look, many are surprised to learn that a dentist can provide cosmetic injections. It may have little to do with teeth, but these treatments can serve as a great complement to a beautiful smile (which is always a priority with us).
The truth is that dentists are actually more qualified than some other BOTOX and Restylane providers, as we have a strong clinical background in facial anatomy. We understand how the muscles of the face work in harmony with your smile. In fact, many dentists first began providing BOTOX to patients as a treatment for TMJ disorder, as it can relax the muscles that cause stress and chronic pain resulting from jaw joint dysfunction. Since we already provide this treatment for medical reasons, we have the training to know that we are doing it safely and effectively for cosmetic purposes.
How Do BOTOX and Restylane Work?
BOTOX cosmetic is used to relax small muscles temporarily for up to three to four months. This can help minimize the appearance of frown lines in the forehead, crow’s feet, and smile lines around the mouth. This treatment is minimally invasive and can improve how you look in just 15 minutes.
Botox can prevent your wrinkles from showing and worsening, and Restylane can add volume to your facial contours. If you feel like your lips have been getting thinner and thinner, Restylane can give you back your “young lips.” It is also an excellent way to plump up the tissues in deep creases, to give your cheeks a youthful fullness. Restylane is made from a safe, naturally occurring substance (hyaluronic acid) that pulls moisture into your facial tissues. This treatment takes about 30 minutes and the results can last from six to 18 months. Not bad for an extra half hour at the dentist!
When you choose facial esthetic treatments, Dr. Lee will look at your areas of concern and help you decide which parts of the face to focus on. The needles used with these treatments are very thin, and most patients report little-to-no discomfort during the procedure.
Not Sure? It’s Not Permanent!
If you are bothered by the appearance of your aging skin and wrinkles, we encourage you to consider facial esthetic treatments. Most patients are extremely pleased with their results, and come back for repeat treatments as they wear off. Since we provide conservative treatment, we know how to prevent your results from looking “over-done.” Your face will still look natural and you’ll still have your full range of expression.
