Wedding Day Smile - Facial Aesthetics
Improve your smile in 1 year - using anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers.
With all eyes on you on your big day, you naturally want to look as good as possible. One way of ensuring this is to consider anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers, if these are planned and used correctly by an experienced and qualified professional. These treatments can restore, refresh, and enhance your look, without making you look fake and “done”.
These treatments can be used around the mouth region to improve your smile, anti-wrinkle injections or dermal fillers can be used on their own, or in combination to achieve the best results possible.
Some examples are these:
Smokers’ lines - The small vertical lines that can form above the upper lip – formed from puckering, hence why these can be more pronounced in smokers/ex-smokers. A small amount of anti-wrinkle injectables strategically placed in this area can reduce these fine lines. This can also increase the upper lip volume a little, for deeper lines, filler may be required also.
“Gummy smile” - If you have a lovely big smile but feel you show too much upper gum when you smile, this treatment could be for you. This can be reduced with a small amount of anti-wrinkle injectables, strategically placed to reduce the pull of the upper lip. You will still have your lovely big smile but with less gum on show.
Marionette lines - These form at the corners of the mouth, often causing a slight downward appearance of the lips. A small amount of anti-wrinkle injectables can be used here, often in combination with dermal filler, to eradicate these lines and create a more even smile, from being downturned to straight, or slightly upturned.
Nasolabial folds - These run from the corners of the nose to just beyond the corners of the lips. This area can become deep as changes within the facial structure occur, and the shadow from the cheek above can exaggerate these lines. Dermal filler can flatten the fold, creating less of a crease and therefore less of a shadow.
Chin - If you have a prominent crease in your chin, filler can eradicate this. If you have a “pebbly” chin, anti-wrinkle injectables can remove this appearance.
Lip augmentation - A filler can be used in the lips to define the outline, increase their volume, or both. This is particularly good for people who “lose” their upper lip when they smile. If done correctly the result should be a subtle enhancement, rather than an obvious change.
It is important to know that anti-wrinkle injections take approximately 2 weeks to achieve full effect, and the results last for approximately 3-4 months. The results with dermal fillers are instant and can last between 6-12 months.
