Having attended many wedding Expos, we often treat patients before weddings in order to give their best appearance for photos on the day. Over the course of this happy day, as you smile, frown, and change your facial expressions, you will notice makeup makes your lines stand out more.
Injectables are a popular method for treating unwanted wrinkles before your big day. The most common places to reduce movement include the frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead area.
Will I be suitable for Injectables?
Most people will be suitable for having anti-wrinkle injections and dermal filler treatment. There are certain contraindications, but this can be discussed with you prior to your treatment. It is very rare that you are not able to undergo this procedure.
Anti wrinkle injections
The Process
If you have never had anti-wrinkle injections, it is recommended that you have a trial run roughly four to six months before your big day. This is to make sure that you like the results. Most people will be very satisfied with the results and then we can retreat any areas roughly two to four weeks before your wedding.
Dermal fillers
The Process
Dermal fillers should be ideally performed four to six weeks before your wedding. This will allow any associated bruising and swelling to settle and will allow time for touch-ups to make the area look as natural as possible. Often dermal filler and anti-wrinkle injections will be done in conjunction and timing is important with an experienced clinician.
We often take photos of your face and smile prior to the treatment to ensure we have the best records to repeat your treatment or improve your results.
The cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Our fees for anti-wrinkle injections start at $4 a unit. We treat areas according to the number of units, and this usually ends up being cheaper for 90% of patients. Dermal fillers start at $499 per ml.
