Facial Rejuvenation

Few features contribute to a youthful facial appearance more dramatically than bright, gleaming white, healthy, straight teeth. Once you’ve got that dazzling smile that turns heads, you won’t want to stop there!

Now you can enjoy further facial rejuvenation –safely, from the dental team you already know and trust at Dazzling Smiles. Dr. Michaela McKenzie’s natural eye for artistry and capable hands now deliver stunning accompaniment to your smile – Botox and Juvéderm.

A bit about Botox

Botox is a purified protein. Injected with a very fine needle into precise points on the face, it acts as a neuromodulator. That means that it disrupts signals from nerves that tell certain muscles to contract. Repeated facial expressions like frowning and squinting cause skin to fold into wrinkles and creases. By interrupting those contractions, muscles relax, forming a smoother foundation for skin. In Dr. McKenzie’s care, the appearance of wrinkles is softened for results that look natural and refreshed – never fake or frozen. Most patients see results within a week and continued improvement for about a month that lasts up to four months. Treatment sessions take an hour or less, and there’s essentially no downtime.

Just a little on Juvéderm

Juvéderm is one of the most trusted names in soft tissue fillers. This smooth gel is formulated with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring element with the unique ability to grab and retain hydration. Juvéderm is injected to smooth moderate to severe wrinkles around the nose and mouth. It adds instant volume, with continued improvement as the hyaluronic acid plumps from the inside. There is little or now downtime following treatment, and results last for up to a year.
