Enhance Your Natural Beauty with Facial Aesthetic Treatments at Lansdowne Dentist

At Lansdowne Dentist, we offer a variety of facial aesthetic treatments to help you achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Our non-surgical procedures are designed to enhance your natural beauty with minimal downtime.

Wrinkle-Relaxing Injections

Our wrinkle-relaxing injections are an effective way to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, providing a rejuvenated and youthful look. These treatments target the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles, resulting in a smoother complexion.

Facial Aesthetics, Joint Pain And The Injection Process

Repeated muscle contractions associated with our squinting and frowning over the years as we age naturally changes our faces. With aging, the muscles move closer to the surface as our skin loses its volume. Our skin then continues to experience more wear and tear as these muscle contractions move closer to the surface. These changes can result in discomfort, headaches, and other facial problems because of aging.

TMD / TMJ

A major problem with many is the pain and discomfort with the TMJ joints. These are the joints that move your jaw. This issue is called TMD. Relaxing injection therapy treatment will address these changes. The Relaxing injection treatment is an elective process that is completely painless and will help with those muscles that may be generating medical and uncomfortable side-effects.

The Process

The treatment is done in our office and is quick and minimally invasive. The treatment is as simple as the gentle injection of an incredibly low dose of the natural protein into the muscles we have identified. These might be the muscles around your brows and eyes, the frown lines in your forehead, or the joints in front of your ears. We can be totally selective as a team in determining where to administer the injections. Each specific injection will then block the nerve impulses to the selected muscles reducing the amount of movement in those muscles.

What To Expect

The amount of relaxing injection product applied will vary depending on your age and the severity of the problem. The discomfort is quite minimal and there might be some initial redness around the injection site that will disappear shortly. On a rare occasion there can be some very minor bruising. There are no issues with you returning to all normal activities immediately since there is no downtime after the treatment.

The Benefits And Results Of Facial Aesthetics

The Results Of muscle-relaxing injections Treatment

You should begin to see the results of the injections in 5 to 7 days. As the treated muscles begin to relax so does the skin over those same muscles. When the treatment is for TMD/TMJ it will relieve your jaw tension. The treatments will eliminate the headaches from teeth grinding and even severe stress. It will also minimize lock jaw. Once again, there is no discomfort and no numbness in the areas treated. The improvements will be seen after that first week and has over a 90% success rate. Depending on your personal body chemistry and the severity of the muscles treated, the improvements can last up to three or four months. When the pain or discomfort begins to reappear the treatment will be simply reapplied if desired.
