Cosmetic Injectables at Model Dentistry Greenwell Springs

What Are Cosmetic Injectables?

Cosmetic injectables are non-surgical treatments used to improve the appearance of the face by reducing wrinkles, restoring lost volume, and enhancing facial contours. There are two main types of injectables:

1. Dermal Fillers: These injectables add volume to areas of the face that have lost fullness due to aging. They are commonly used to plump lips, smooth out smile lines (nasolabial folds), and add volume to the cheeks. Dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the skin and helps maintain hydration and elasticity.
2. Botox: Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. By reducing muscle activity, Botox smooths out lines and prevents new wrinkles from forming.

At Model Dentistry, we specialize in both types of injectables to address your specific cosmetic concerns and help you achieve a balanced, natural-looking result.

When you choose cosmetic injectables at Model Dentistry, you can expect a range of benefits that go beyond surface-level improvements:

• Non-Surgical: Cosmetic injectables offer a non-invasive alternative to surgery. There is no need for anesthesia, and recovery time is minimal.

• Instant Results: Dermal fillers provide immediate results, while Botox results appear within a few days. Both options offer long-lasting effects with little to no downtime.
• Customizable: Whether you want subtle enhancements or a more dramatic transformation, injectable treatments can be tailored to your individual needs.
• Enhances Your Smile: By addressing facial wrinkles and volume loss, injectables can enhance the overall appearance of your smile and face, creating a more youthful, harmonious look.

The Cosmetic Injectables Process at Model Dentistry

At Model Dentistry, we prioritize patient comfort and satisfaction. Here’s what you can expect during your cosmetic injectables appointment:

1. Consultation

Before we begin any treatment, we’ll start with a thorough consultation. Our team will discuss your aesthetic goals and assess the areas you’d like to improve. Based on this evaluation, we’ll recommend a customized treatment plan that may include dermal fillers, Botox, or a combination of both.

2. Treatment

The injectable treatment itself is quick and straightforward. We use fine needles to inject small amounts of product into the targeted areas, ensuring precision and minimizing discomfort. Most patients experience little to no pain, and the procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes.

3. Post-Treatment Care

After your treatment, you can return to your normal activities immediately. We may provide you with post-care instructions, such as avoiding strenuous activity or massaging the treated area for the first 24 hours. Results from dermal fillers are visible immediately, while Botox results develop over a few days.

4. Follow-Up

Depending on your goals, we may schedule follow-up treatments to maintain your results. Dermal fillers typically last 6-12 months, while Botox lasts 3-6 months. Our team will work with you to create a long-term plan for maintaining your refreshed, youthful appearance.
