What is Facial Aesthetics?
Facial aesthetics, sometimes referred to as facial rejuvenation, is a type of cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the signs of aging on the face, accentuate your features and enhance your natural beauty. These types of treatments are typically nonsurgical and include rejuvenating or anti-aging properties. Facial aesthetic treatments are designed to make subtle but noticeable enhancements to your appearance to mask or delay the effects of aging. The most common types of treatments are cosmetic injectables, which work to smooth lines and wrinkles, but other aesthetic treatments such as platelet-rich fibrin, microneedling and facials are also available.
When is Facial Aesthetic Treatment Recommended?
Facial aesthetic treatment is most frequently recommended to:
- Help your skin appear healthier
- Tighten wrinkled or dropping skin
- Fight signs of aging
- Create facial symmetry
Facial aesthetics targets cosmetic issues on the forehead, lips, cheeks and wrinkled areas of the face. Our cosmetic dentist will discuss your goals and your treatment options with you before designing an individualized treatment plan.
What is PRF?
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a treatment used to enhance the appearance of skin and promote natural rejuvenation. PRF is derived from your blood, making it a safe and minimally invasive treatment. It is a form of regenerative medicine that contains a concentrated amount of platelets, white blood cells and fibrin, all of which play crucial roles in tissue repair and regeneration. PRF may be used in a wide range of aesthetic treatments, including:
- Facial rejuvenation
- Lip augmentation
- Dark circle reduction
- Scar reduction
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a procedure used to stimulate collagen production in order to improve the texture of your skin and enhance your appearance. During this procedure, a microneedling pen is used to create small puncture points in your skin. Your body responds to these punctures by producing collagen and elastin which rejuvenates your appearance. This treatment is minimally invasive and typically takes about 15-30 minutes to complete. Our cosmetic dentist and team will take care to ensure your comfort throughout this process.
Microneedling may be recommend to:
- Reduce crow’s feet, fine lines and wrinkles
- Righten skin and reduce signs of aging
- Reduce sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Eliminate stretch marks
- Treat scars, including acne scars
- Shrink pores
What Happens During Your Initial Consultation?
During your initial consultation, our cosmetic dentist will review your aesthetic goals, concerns and medical history with you. He will also evaluate your skin and skin care regime. We will then discuss your treatment options with you in order to create a treatment plan that will achieve the look you desire.
