The Subtle Touch: Facial Aesthetics at West End Dental
In a world that prizes self-care as much as self-expression, facial aesthetics has stepped confidently out of the shadows and into mainstream wellness. But not all treatments – and certainly not all providers – are equal.
At West End Dental, facial aesthetics is an extension of their gold-standard approach to dentistry: discreet, medically led, and entirely focused on patient confidence. Delivered by a trained clinician with healthcare qualifications and advanced training through the British Aesthetic Academy, these treatments offer the best of both worlds – clinical safety and aesthetic refinement.
This isn’t cosmetic work for the sake of it. It’s about enhancing what’s already there, softening what no longer serves you, and achieving harmony between face, expression, and smile.
Why Choose Facial Aesthetics at West End Dental?
The clinician delivering your care has an in-depth understanding of facial anatomy. Dental professionals routinely work with the delicate structures of the face and jaw – meaning they already have expert knowledge of muscle function, nerve positioning, and facial proportions. Combined with medical-grade facilities and a HIW-registered environment, the result is a safer, more precise experience in a calm, clinical space.
You won’t be rushed. You won’t be upsold. And you certainly won’t be walking out looking “done.” This is aesthetic care for people who value subtlety, discretion, and expert hands.
Treatments Offered: A Closer Look
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Using Botulinum Toxin Type A, this treatment gently relaxes specific facial muscles to reduce fine lines and prevent deepening wrinkles. Common treatment areas include:
• Forehead lines
• Frown lines (glabellar region)
• Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
• Bunny lines (sides of the nose)
• Gummy smile correction
• Chin dimpling
Expected results: Smoother skin with natural movement. You’ll still look like you – just more rested and refreshed.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin, to restore volume, structure, and hydration. They are ideal for:
• Lip enhancement and contouring
• Cheek volume and lift
• Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
• Marionette lines (lines from mouth to chin)
• Tear troughs (under-eye hollowing)
• Jawline and chin definition
Expected results: Subtle volume, improved balance, and softening of age-related volume loss.
Lip Enhancement
Whether it’s hydration, definition or subtle shaping, this is a bespoke treatment tailored to your face – not a one-size-fits-all approach. The aim is to enhance, not exaggerate.
Gummy Smile Correction
For patients whose upper gums are overly exposed when they smile, anti-wrinkle injections can gently lower the upper lip’s resting height. It’s a simple solution to a concern many people didn’t realise had a fix.
Masseter (Jawline Slimming) Treatment
Botulinum toxin is injected into the masseter muscles to:
• Soften the jawline
• Reduce clenching and grinding
• Provide facial slimming for those with pronounced lower facial muscle bulk
This treatment is particularly beneficial for patients who suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding) and tension headaches.
Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating) Treatment
Botox is also highly effective in treating hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, particularly in the underarm area. Small, targeted injections of botulinum toxin temporarily block the nerves responsible for overactive sweat glands.
Ideal for those who find excessive perspiration impacts their confidence, daily comfort, or wardrobe choices, the results typically last between 4 to 6 months, offering relief and reassurance in both professional and social settings.
Expected results: Dramatic reduction in sweating in treated areas, often within 7–14 days, with long-lasting dryness and improved quality of life.
What to Expect: Before, During & After
Before Treatment
Every treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation. The clinician will take time to understand your goals, assess your facial structure, and explain treatment options, risks, and expected outcomes. Medical history and suitability are carefully reviewed.
You’ll never be rushed into a decision. Sometimes, patients attend a consultation and return for treatment later – just as it should be.
During Treatment
Appointments are carried out in a calm, private clinical room. The process is quick and generally well tolerated, with minimal discomfort thanks to topical numbing agents or ultra-fine needles. Most treatments take 30–45 minutes from start to finish.
After Treatment
There may be some slight redness, swelling, or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days. You’ll be advised to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and touching the area for 24 hours. Results for anti-wrinkle injections are visible in 3–14 days, while filler effects are immediate and continue to settle over the first week.
Follow-up appointments are available, and tweaks can be made to ensure natural, balanced outcomes.
A Discreet, Seamless Experience
For those already familiar with West End Dental’s standard of care, adding facial aesthetics to your routine is easy. Appointments can be coordinated with dental visits, and because everything is carried out in-house, your treatment remains entirely confidential.
No salon setting. No walk through the high street. No awkward post-treatment stares. Just calm professionalism from a team who already know your face – quite literally – inside and out.
The Finishing Touch to a Confident Smile
Facial aesthetics at West End Dental is not about looking different. It’s about feeling more like yourself – refreshed, relaxed, and restored. Whether paired with a smile makeover or simply as a quiet act of self-care, these treatments offer a powerful, personal way to invest in your confidence.
In a world of fleeting trends and overfilled faces, West End Dental offers something altogether more timeless: clinical expertise, elegant results, and care you can trust.
