As your skin ages, it loses its natural collagen and hyaluronic acid. This weakens your skin’s structure and appearance. Dermal treatments reintroduce either of these two substances to the skin to smooth out wrinkles, frown lines or folds on your face. Collagen and hyaluronic acid can also be used to resculpt your lips, making them look fuller or reducing the wrinkles around them.
The facial rejuvenation treatments even use your own skin cells to stimulate the production of your skin’s natural collagen in the problem areas.
Our practice offers these treatments from fully trained healthcare professionals, letting you add another dimension to your dental makeover for a dramatic new look.
The Botox anti-wrinkle treatment can smooth out age-related wrinkles such as crows feet, frown lines or lines on the forehead. It works in a different way than the injected gels and the effects last between 3 – 5 months.
What is
BOTOX®?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical, physician-administered
treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to
severe frown lines between the brows in people from
18 to 65 years of age. It is the only treatment
of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA).
One 10-minute treatment, a few tiny injections and within
days there's a noticeable improvement in those persistent
lines between the brows, which can last up to 4 months.
Results may vary.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by
the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the
activity of the muscles that cause those frown lines between
the brows to form over time.
A million people have been treated
with BOTOX® Cosmetic since FDA approval in 2002.
Not just models and movie stars, but people from
all types of professions.
BOTOX® Cosmetic can smooth moderate to severe
frown lines between your brows for up to 4 months.
LIP ENHANCEMENT AND RESCULPTING Collagen-based or hyaluronic acid products such as Hydra Fill can also be used for lip enhancement and resculpting. The treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, keeping you comfortable and pain free throughout.
FROWN LINE, DEEP LINE AND WRINKLE REDUCTION Restylane gel or Hydra Fill are used to smooth out lines and wrinkles, as well as for lip enhancement. Both treatments use non-animal biodegradable or biocompatible gels based on hyaluronic acid. When injected into the skin they offer a long lasting solution to wrinkles, jowls and frown lines. Hydra Fill is available in different formulations and is also used for deeper wrinkles.
What is Restylane? A natural
beauty lift
Impressions of beauty change with time - as
do our faces as we age. With Restylane, you
can have a natural beauty lift using material
found naturally in the body.
Restylane is a crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable
gel based on a natural substance, called hyaluronic
acid. The gel is injected into the skin in tiny
amounts with a very fine needle. The result is instant
and Restylane gives you long-lasting and natural
enhancement. Visit the Restylane
website for before and after photos as well

FACIAL REJUVENATION TREATMENTS
The Isolagen treatment is a new breakthrough in facial rejuvenation, which uses your own collagen-forming skin cells to smooth out the wrinkles and folds on your face. Visit
the Isolgen
website to learn more.
A small piece of skin tissue is taken from behind your ear and sent to the Isolagen laboratories where your collagen producing cells, or fibroblasts are extracted and grown. The strongest of these cells multiply very fast. When your fibroblasts have reached a population of tens of millions, which usually takes 8 weeks, they are injected into your skin where they start laying out new collagen. This fresh introduction of concentrated natural collagen begins to reduce the wrinkles and folds of your skin.
SKIN TREATMENTS Obagi peel: Obagi products work on cells that lie below the surface of the skin, offering a cellular correction of problems caused by ageing skin. The substances in the Obagi products stimulate the production of collagen and other natural substances that your skin needs for greater elasticity. Trained professionals at our surgery will assess your skin’s condition and deficiencies. Based on this consultation they will then prescribe the necessary products. You should notice a difference in 6 weeks.
