We all want to be the very best version of ourselves, so at Bridge Street Dental Practice we have extended our cosmetic treatments to encompass your skin as well as your smile. Our range of facial aesthetic treatments are aimed at rejuvenating your skin so you can look and feel great.
Smooth away fine lines and wrinkles
Our facial expressions are our primary means of communication. Over time, the repetitive use of our facial muscles can result in the development of creases, typically found between the brows, around the eyes, and on the forehead.
Treatment – Wrinkle relaxing injections
Wrinkle Relaxing Injections are a popular anti-wrinkle treatment to swiftly smooth the fine lines and wrinkles on your face and prevent new ones from appearing. A small amount of Botulinum Toxin A, more commonly called botox, is injected into your face muscles freezing their activity, and preventing them from creating the lines which appear on your face, and get worse with age. Targeted to treat against the common signs of ageing such as lines, wrinkles, ‘bunny’ nose lines, high lip lines, downturned mouth, and neck bands.
- 20 minute appointment with a review appointment 2 to 3 weeks later
- Multiple areas of your face can be treated simultaneously in one appointment
- Results generally last for three to four months with the effects gradually diminishing over that period as your facial features return to their previous state.
- Smoothes away fine lines and wrinkles
- Rejuvenates your appearance for a youthful and more relaxed look
- Your natural facial expressions will be maintained with the discreet results simply enhancing your natural beauty.
- Maintenance sessions are imperative to preserve the effects. Repeated treatments progressively weaken the targeted muscles, potentially extending the duration between treatments.
Rejuvenate your skin
With age, and exposure to the environment, the natural component of our skin that keeps it hydrated and soft, (hyaluronic acid) often decreases causing reduced skin elasticity and hydration.
Treatment – Skin boosters
Skin Boosters are micro-injections of a very soft hyaluronic acid filler under the skin. The micro injections stimulate the body to produce more of its own natural Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, and Elastin providing ongoing benefits beyond the immediate course of treatment.
- Treatment consists of injection over 2 or 3 appointments approximately 4 weeks apart
- Results start to show within a few weeks
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- Improves hydration for a glowing and radiant complexion
- Improves elasticity for a firmer skin texture
- Reduces dry patches
- Repeat treatment recommended every 6 months
Jaw Pain (TMJ disorder)
Jaw pain or Temporo-Mandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders, affects a large percentage of the population. Common symptoms include headaches, tightness of the jaw and associated muscles, neck ache, and worn, chipped or fractured teeth. The precise cause is not fully understood but commonly the condition is related to teeth clenching and grinding (bruxism) , elevated levels of stress and disturbed sleep.
Treatment – Jaw botox
Treatment usually starts with a bespoke made bite guard that is worn at night. If this is not suitable or does not sufficiently relieve the symptoms, jaw botox is a treatment option where injections into the jaw (masseter) muscles reduce the force by which the jaw can be closed.
- Results start to show between 2 and 4 weeks
- Relieves jaw pain and associated headaches
- Reduces stress on the teeth and surrounding muscles
- Repeat injections recommended every 3-6 months
