How does 1 Smile smooth out wrinkles and frown lines? By reversing the process, those repetitive muscles contractions, that created the lines in the first place. Botulinum Toxin is the natural protein in our anti-wrinkle injections that relaxes the contracted muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles on the outer corner of the eyes (crow’s feet), nose and chin as well as smile lines, laugh lines and horizontal lines on the forehead and neck. This protein can also block the activation of the sweat glands that cause excessive sweating in the hands, feet, or underarms. (It’s also used to treat migraines.)
Botox can also be used to prevent the wrinkles caused by repeated muscle contractions, they can be prevented by Botox injections. In a person’s twenties, their skin is thick enough and resilient enough to not crease as the facial muscles responsible for smiling, squinting or frowning contract.
Starting at age 30 the skin begins to thin and becomes more susceptible to creasing do to these repeated expressions. It’s then that a patient can use anti-wrinkle injections to relax the muscles and prevent wrinkles from forming or deepening.If you have questions about how you can age elegantly and wonder if Botox is the best solution for you, one of our specialist dermatologists can assist you.
Yes, teeth whitening works if carried out by a trained dental professional. Whitening uses a peroxide-based gel to lighten the teeth. When these chemicals break down, they release oxygen. This gets into the hard, outer surface of your teeth (the enamel) and whitens them.
Yes, whitening is safe if it’s done properly. It’s illegal for anyone else other than registered dental professionals to carry out whitening procedures. A dental professional includes dentists, dental hygienists, therapists and technicians - who are registered with the General Dental Council.
Whitening doesn’t hurt, but it’s common to experience some mild sensitivity either during or after the initial treatment. This should settle down after a couple of days. If it doesn’t, get in touch with your dentist who can give you further advice.Your dentist can recommend suitable toothpaste and other products to help if you do experience sensitivity. High-quality whitening products, used by dentists, come with anti-sensitivity ingredients incorporated into their gels, to avoid this happening.
Lots of people can have teeth whitening treatment, but some people may not be suitable if they have gum disease or other dental health problems such as tooth decay.You’ll need to have consultation with your dentist before having treatment, to assess the suitability of your teeth.
If you opt for in-practice teeth whitening, it takes about two hours to achieve results, but whitening needs to be maintained with a top-up kit for around a week to ensure the results are permanent. At-home teeth whitening kits take around two to three weeks to take effect.
