WHO ARE FACIAL AESTHETICS FOR?
our expert aesthetic practitioners provide safe & trusted treatment
Facial Aesthetics are right for anyone, of any age, looking to restore or enhance the appearance of their skin.
Our skin is constantly under attack, it is exposed daily to wind, sun, cold and pollution. The effects of our diet, smoking, drinking, fatigue, and simply the passage of time can also take their toll on our skin, weakening its structure and creating or increasing facial lines and wrinkles.
Anti-wrinkle treatment (Botox®) and dermal fillers are non-surgical treatments help to preserve and restore younger looking skin. Non-surgical treatments can offer fresher, softer and younger looking skin. Lip fillers can help to restore youthful plumpness to the lips that may have become thin through ageing.
Whilst it is possible to maintain good facial aesthetics through the right balance of skincare, nutrition, exercise and behaviour modification; facial rejuvenation treatments can compensate for the passage of time and give you a more youthful and healthy appearance.
Our Facial Aesthic Treatments
Anti-wrinkle injections (Botox®) temporarily relaxes chosen muscles causing a reduction of lines and wrinkles, softening the appearance of skin and facial expressions.
It works by freezing the chosen facial muscles in the area of concern and temporarily, but effectively paralyses it for 3-6months. Not only does this reduce and even eliminate the wrinkle lines, it can even result in the muscle habit being broken, preventing further ageing lines and wrinkles.
The actual administration of Botox treatment usually only takes 5-10 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. Your facial aesthetics practitioner will take some time before hand to discuss and accurately plan which muscles to target.
It’s not a painful procedure, not dissimilar to having acupuncture therefore, local anaesthetic is not usually required. If requested we can apply topical anaesthetic cream 20-30 minutes before treatment to help with any tenderness at the injection site.
Botox injections, can be ideal in achieving the ultimate in anti-ageing effect, rejuvenating a youthful, smooth appearance.
Dermal fillers can be used to smooth away lines, replace volume and restore youthful plumpness to tired skin.
In cases where the deeper ageing lines or folds are the main complaint, a simple course of dermal filler treatment alone, or in conjunction with anti-wrinkle treatment, such as Botox®, can provide an instant improvement and a significant reduction of these ageing lines. The results can last 6-9 months.
When Dermal Filler is administered into a crease line like nasolabial folds, it creates volume under the wrinkles, lifting up and smoothing out the lines. It can also be used to enhance the lips and also sculpt and lift the cheeks.
Treatment takes around 15-20 minutes to administer and is relatively painless, although in the more sensitive areas, we may recommend placement of local anaesthetic to aid comfort.
Lip fillers sculpt and give volume & definition to your lips. Instantly enhancing your smile and surrounding facial tissue.
Lip enhancements with lip fillers can restore the natural, youthful plumpness to lips that have become thin through ageing or simply provide definition or enhance the natural shape and size of your lips. Results can last 6-10 months.
Lip fillers are administered into the border or vermillion border of the lips. The hyaluronic acid gel allows us to volumise the outline of the lips thereby regaining fuller lip-definition. They can also be administered into the body of the lips, restoring the youthful plumpness with immediate effect; giving beautiful, natural results.
Treatment takes around 20minutes to administer. As the lips are one of the most sensitive parts of the body, we recommend placement of local anaesthetic to make the treatment more comfortable. We usually invite you in for 30 minutes prior to your appointment time to give the anaesthetic enough time to be absorbed into the skin. You can expect some swelling following lip injections, it can sometimes take up to 14 days to settle.
At Twelve Dental we understand the importance of balance and proportions of the lips to perfectly compliment a beautiful smile and provide an enhanced natural-looking result.
