Manchester Road dental surgery is proud to offer dento-facial aesthetic treatments such as anti-wrinkle treatments and dermal fillers enhancements

Dr. David Rivadillo has undergone extensive training in Australia to be able to provide the above treatments.

Dento –facial aesthetics addresses the interplay between the mouth and the surrounding facial structures. We use safe, modern, minimally invasive techniques and materials to quickly, easily and painlessly restore a more youthful appearance

What are anti- wrinkle treatments?

  • Wrinkles are caused by years of repetitive contraction of facial muscles used in facial expression
  • Our anti-wrinkle products contain Botulinum Toxin type A (BTx-A) which is a purified natural protein that is administered through the skin to work on the underlying muscles of the face.
  • BTx-A is generally used to treat “crow’s feet” around the eyes, horizontal lines on the forehead and frown lines in between the eyes.
  • BTx-A acts by relaxing the facial muscles underneath wrinkles which allows the skin to become smooth again and refresh your facial appearance
  • BTx-A is completely safe and reversible. It has minimal adverse effects and benefits of the medication can often be seen in as little as 2 weeks.
  • Results generally last for 3-6 months.
  • Regular treatment may improve the longevity of treatment effects and minimise static lines (present even when your face is at rest)
  • If regular treatment is discontinued, the facial muscles will gradually return to their normal level of activity and facial lines will revert to what they were pre-treatment

What are dermal fillers?

  • Dermal fillers contain naturally occurring substance found in the body called Hyaluronic Acid.
  • As we age, our skin begins to lose volume which results in unsightly facial lines and grooves.
  • Dermal fillers are materials that can be used to “fill” these lines and grooves to restore volume in the area and restore a more youthful appearance.
  • Dermal fillers are temporary and can last anywhere between 6-12 months before it is completely absorbed by the body.
  • Dermal fillers are ideal for use in areas such as the lips to provide a fuller and more defined appearance. They can also be used to reduce lines and grooves around the mouth.

Why choose us?

  • Dentists graduate with a thorough knowledge of the facial structures and anatomy. With this knowledge we know where the nerves, blood vessels and muscles are located which is crucial to achieve the best possible results as well as avoid complications.
  • Our thorough training and experience in dentistry allows us to deliver profound anaesthesia to the areas being treated so that you can experience any dento-facial aesthetic procedure in complete comfort.
  • Anti-wrinkle treatments and dermal fillers are not only used for the facial enhancements but they can also be used for existing dental problems. Conditions such :
  1. Temporo-mandibular joint disorder (TMD)- anti-wrinkle treatments reduce the tension in facial muscles responsible for chronic jaw joint pain and facial pain.
  2. GUMMY SMILES – often require extensive surgery to treatment, however anti-wrinkle treatment enables us to camouflage them by relaxing the upper lip. It provides a quick, simple, less invasive, and pain free improvement.
