Our
skin changes with age, becoming less elastic and
the connective tissue loses its firmness.
At Excel Dental we provide the latest treatments for facial
rejuvenation utilizing Botox and dermal fillers.
What is botulinum
toxin ("Botox©")?
Facial lines, such as frown lines, are caused by the repeated
use of the facial muscles in a particular manner. Botulinum
toxin is a purified bacterial substance that blocks muscle nerve
signals.
We
safely inject botulinum toxin to temporarily immobilise facial
muscles. This, in effect, puts the frown muscles to sleep for
3-4 months, diminishing unwanted wrinkles and frown lines that
appear across the forehead and at the corners of the eyes (crow's
feet).
What are dermal fillers?
These are substances which lift fine lines and wrinkles, add
fullness to lips and elevate deep folds and skin creases. Juvederm
is similar to the body's own naturally-occurring hyaluronic
acid and, once applied, will restore the smooth curves to your
face.
It
is of non-animal origin and highly biocompatible. Isolagen is
a revolutionary new procedure which uses the body's own cells
(fibroblasts) to repair defects in the skin's dermis with long
lasting results.
