Overview

At Aurora Family Dental, we believe that true beauty comes from within, but there’s nothing wrong with wanting to look and feel your absolute best on the outside too. That’s why we’re proud to offer a comprehensive range of facial aesthetics services designed to help you achieve a more youthful, refreshed, and confident appearance.

What are Facial Aesthetics?

Facial aesthetics refers to cosmetic treatments and procedures designed to enhance and improve the appearance of the face. These can include minimally invasive injectable treatments like neuromodulators (e.g., Botox) to reduce wrinkles caused by facial muscles and dermal fillers to restore volume and fullness to depleted areas of the face.

Under the expert guidance of Dr. Chancy Hanquist, our facial aesthetics team provides personalized treatments tailored to your unique needs and goals. We prioritize safety, comfort, and natural-looking results so you can accentuate your best features and turn back the clock on aging without looking overdone.

Facial Aesthetics in Dentistry

Facial aesthetics is important in modern dentistry as dental professionals recognize the close relationship between oral health, facial appearance, and overall confidence and well-being. By incorporating facial aesthetic treatments, we can provide more comprehensive care beyond just teeth and gums.

Botox and dermal fillers can be useful adjunctive treatments for managing symptoms associated with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). Botox injections can help relax the overactive muscles that are often a contributing factor in TMD. When injected into the masseter (jaw) muscles and surrounding muscles of mastication, Botox temporarily weakens these muscles, reducing painful grinding, clenching, muscle spasms, and jaw tension. This can provide relief from TMD symptoms such as:

  • Jaw pain and soreness
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Tooth-wear from grinding
  • Clicking/popping jaw joints

Botox

One of our most popular facial aesthetics treatments is Botox, a purified protein that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles and fine lines. By strategically injecting Botox into specific areas of the face, we can smooth out the following:

  • Frown lines between the eyebrows
  • Crow’s feet at the corners of the eyes
  • Forehead furrows
  • Laugh lines around the mouth

Botox treatments typically take just a few minutes, and the results can last up to four months, making it an excellent option for those seeking a refreshed, more youthful appearance without surgery or downtime.

Dermal Fillers

As we age, our faces naturally lose volume and elasticity, leading to sunken cheeks, hollow areas, and an overall deflated appearance. At Aurora Family Dental, we offer a variety of dermal fillers to help restore that lost volume and enhance your facial contours.

When injected into targeted areas, these fillers can:

  • Plump up thinning lips for a fuller, more sensual pout
  • Fill in deep creases and wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Restore volume to sunken cheeks, temples, and under-eye areas
  • Enhance and contour the chin, jawline, and other facial features

Our skilled injectors use a gentle touch and precise technique to ensure natural-looking results that seamlessly blend with your unique facial structure.

Combining Botox and Fillers

For more comprehensive facial rejuvenation, many of our patients opt for a combination of Botox and dermal fillers, often referred to as a “liquid facelift.” This approach tackles dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement and static wrinkles caused by volume loss, providing a refreshed, uplifted appearance without surgery.

By carefully layering Botox and fillers, Dr. Hanquist can smooth away fine lines and wrinkles, restore youthful volume, and enhance facial contours, all in a single treatment session. The results are often dramatic yet incredibly natural-looking, helping you look like a younger, more refreshed version of yourself.
