Facial Aesthetics in Colchester

Also referred to as facial rejuvenation treatments, facial aesthetics in Colchester relates to non-surgical cosmetic procedures which aim to reduce the signs of ageing in the face.

Most facial aesthetic treatments offered by us at The Dental Studio are not permanent and how long they last are usually dependent on the type of fillers we use along with where the filler is injected.

Today, most dermal fillers used when providing facial aesthetic treatments are made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in our skin and it works to ensure that our skin remains both hydrated and volumised, as we get older, our skin starts to lose its ability to retain moisture as much, resulting in a loss of plumpness and firmness in the skin.

Anti – Wrinkle Injections at The Dental Practice

One of the most popular facial aesthetic treatments within cosmetic dentistry, anti-wrinkle injections are used to reduce the appearance of lines in areas such as the forehead, neck area, under eyes, chin and eyes.

Anti-wrinkle injections are made from a muscle-relaxing agent called botulinum toxin. This solution is injected into the muscles by one of our dentists using a small needle. For this procedure, there is no need for a local anaesthetic and there is usually only mild discomfort during the treatment which can be minimised by using a topical anaesthetic cream.

It works by temporarily relaxing the muscles under your skin meaning that when you raise your eyebrows or smile, the muscles which have been injected with this agent will stay relaxed and the skin in that area does not crease and therefore reducing the appearance of lines.

After the treatment, you can expect redness and some slight swelling which usually settles after a few hours, and you can start to notice the effects of this treatment after four to five days of the procedure.

On average, anti-wrinkle injections can last for an average of three to five months, but these can vary for everyone. If you are looking for a longer-lasting effect, it is recommended that you can have follow up treatments.
