Award-Winning Complete Wellness Dentistry™ - Sydney, Australia
Wrinkle Treatments
Treatments that address wrinkles have been traditionally used to correct and treat dental issues such as TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) pain, grinding, clenching & gummy smiles. As the years have progressed there has been a broader shift in achieving overall facial rejuvenation and harmony in addition to dental smile enhancement and traditional aesthetic and functional dental treatments.
iDental Surgery knows your facial anatomy better than any other health and beauty professional. We strive to give you a natural look and feel.
Treatment areas of your face are precisely measured, graded and require great skill to determine facial proportions. Achieving optimal cosmetic treatment results are dependent on your muscle strength and tone.
Photographs and/or videos are always taken at your treatment sessions to allow us to better determine your unique needs to prescribe your specific treatment options. Complete results are seen within 10 -14 days.
What Is Botulinum Toxin?
Medical Grade Botulinum toxin is a purified protein. Most importantly, there are no bacteria, alive or dead in this product.
Anyone who is lactose intolerant (who only suffers from an upset tummy) can still use botulinum toxin. Lactose allergy is more directed to those people who are more seriously affected, i.e. Anaphylaxis.
This does not mean that you cannot get the procedure done. It means that you have to use a particular brand of botulinum toxin which does not have lactose included in the formulation.
The medical-grade products we choose to use are very safe, with minimal potential side effects/complications and predictable clinical outcomes.
Is It Painful?
There can often be some anxiety associated with the concept of having treatments. Fortunately you’ll be happily surprised and your anxiety will be quickly eased as you experience iDental Surgery’s gentle and effective techniques.
How Often Should It Be Administered?
Initially it is recommended that you have quarterly reviews where you will most likely need to have a touch up. Eventually the time gap between appointments will get bigger. So you may require treatment every 4-6 months and maybe even longer.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Treatment Areas (include but are not limited to)
- Chin
- Glabellar/Frown Lines
- Gummy Smile
- Mouth Frown Lines
- Eyes/Crows Feet (both eyes)
- Forehead Crease Lines
- Jaw Jowels
- Neck Bands
- TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Disorders
Note: It is very common that your muscle tone in your face is unbalanced. Therefore you may require additional units to balance out a treated area or areas 2 weeks after your first anti-wrinkle treatment. Additional costs will apply at that visit. Number of units administered by iDental Surgery is results driven and is based on achieving optimal outcomes for you.
Possible Adverse Effects
- Transient small raised skin bumps for about 30 minutes after the treatment
- Transient bruising at the treatment sites lasting about a week
- A feeling of tightness that can last for a few days to weeks (forehead area)
- Transient chewing/eating difficulty temporarily (TMJ & treatments that target the mouth muscles)
- Brow lift that can be unilateral or bilateral (forehead muscle treatments)
- Transient short-lasting headache (forehead treatments)
