Facial Aesthetics in Golders Green by Dental Professionals

Facial aesthetic treatments can soften expression lines, restore volume, or enhance your natural features. Non-surgical options suit frown lines between the brows, crow's feet, or horizontal forehead lines that have become more noticeable. They can also restore youthful volume to the cheeks or subtly define the lips. Many patients from Golders Green choose our dental clinic because they want care from a medical professional in a regulated setting that upholds high hygiene and safety standards.

You begin with a 30 minute consultation to discuss goals and assess your facial structure and skin. We explain suitable options, what the procedures involve, and the likely outcomes. We review your medical history to confirm safety. Then we create a personalised plan and outline the procedure and costs before you decide. For example, a Golders Green patient with deep frown lines was shown how anti-wrinkle injections could soften the area within about two weeks. We ensure you have all the information to make an informed choice before any treatment, which itself usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.

This treatment relaxes the facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles like frown lines and crow's feet. The injections are quick and the session lasts about 15 to 20 minutes. Results start in 3 to 5 days and are usually visible after about two weeks, lasting three to four months. It helps achieve a smoother, rested look.

Dermal fillers restore volume and shape cheeks and lips. They use hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, and provide immediate results. A session lasts around 30 minutes. For example, a Hampstead patient requested mid-face volume and we used fillers to lift the cheeks for a natural look that lasts nine to twelve months.

After treatment you can usually return to daily activities immediately. In the first day avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and heat such as saunas. After anti-wrinkle injections you may notice small red bumps at injection sites that fade within an hour. With fillers you may have mild swelling or bruising that can last a few days. A cold compress helps. Red flags—call during office hours (Mon/Wed/Fri 9-5, Tue/Thu 11-7): any signs of excessive swelling, increasing pain after day two, skin discoloration, or lumps. For out-of-hours emergencies, go to A&E or call 111.

Before deciding on injectables, know the alternatives. High-quality topical skincare containing ingredients like retinoids or vitamin C can improve skin texture and fine lines over time, though results are less dramatic. For more significant changes, surgical options like a facelift or brow lift offer lasting results but involve longer recovery times, higher costs, and the risks associated with surgery. During your consultation, we can discuss whether non-surgical aesthetics fit your goals compared to these other options.

To decide what is right for you, ask these questions whether you choose us or another clinic in the Golders Green area: What are your qualifications and training in facial aesthetics? What brand of product do you use and why? Can you show before and after photos of your work? What are the specific risks and side effects for the treatment I want? What is the total cost and what does it include? What aftercare support do you provide if I have a concern?

Facial aesthetic treatments are considered cosmetic and are not covered by dental insurance plans. All costs are private. Prices vary depending on the treatment type and the amount of product required. We provide a full, transparent quote during your consultation with no hidden fees, so you know the exact cost before proceeding. A detailed price list is available at the practice.
