Combining dental implants and facial aesthetics is not only safe but is a common, highly effective approach to achieving a comprehensive, natural-looking rejuvenation of the lower face. Because the loss of teeth and the resulting shrinkage of the jawbone often leads to a collapse of the facial profile — seen as deeper wrinkles around the mouth — replacing teeth with implants restores the necessary structural support to the lips and cheeks. When managed by a team that understands both the surgical requirements of implant dentistry and the artistry of facial aesthetics, these treatments complement each other perfectly to provide a harmonious, youthful result that isolated dental or cosmetic procedures simply cannot achieve.

Botox and dermal fillers can significantly enhance your final smile by addressing the soft tissue framing around your new teeth, ensuring that your results look as youthful as they are functional. While dental implants restore the essential structural foundation and support for your lips and cheeks, strategic applications of Botox can help relax overactive muscles that may cause a gummy smile or fine lines. Fillers can be used to restore volume to the lips or smooth the nasolabial folds that often become more pronounced when teeth are missing. By integrating these aesthetic refinements with your implant treatment, we can ensure that the transformation is complete, balancing the perfection of your restored teeth with the rejuvenation of the surrounding facial features for a truly harmonious, natural appearance.

While you can often schedule facial aesthetic treatments such as Botox or fillers alongside your implant journey, we recommend waiting until the initial healing phase of any major surgical dental work is complete before proceeding with facial injections. This ensures that any post-operative swelling or inflammation has fully subsided, allowing our team to accurately assess your facial anatomy and achieve the precise, natural-looking results you desire. During your consultation, we will create a tailored timeline that aligns your dental recovery with your aesthetic goals, ensuring that your overall transformation is both safe and aesthetically harmonious.

Yes, Masseter Botox is highly effective for slimming the jawline. By reducing the size of an overdeveloped or hyperactive masseter muscle, the treatment creates a softer, more contoured lower face. While the effect is primarily a result of muscle relaxation rather than fat reduction, it is a popular, non-surgical solution for those looking to achieve a more refined and aesthetic jawline profile.

Generally, Masseter Botox should not change your smile, as it is precisely targeted at the chewing muscles near the back of the jaw. However, because the facial muscles are interconnected, it is essential to have this treatment performed by a clinician with an expert understanding of facial anatomy. When administered correctly, the treatment remains isolated to the masseter, ensuring your smile remains natural while the jawline is contoured and tension is relieved.

You will typically start to notice the effects within a month as the muscle begins to relax. We then schedule a review 4  weeks after your initial treatment to assess your results and determine if any minor adjustments are necessary.

Results vary between patients. Because the masseter is a large, powerful muscle, the duration of the effect can vary depending on your individual muscle mass, the strength of your clenching habit, how much your body wants you to clench, as well as how quickly your body metabolises the product. Regular maintenance treatments are often recommended to sustain the slimming effect and keep jaw tension under control.

No. Masseter Botox is precisely targeted at the chewing muscle located at the back of the jaw, which is distinct from the facial muscles responsible for expression. When performed by an expert clinician, the treatment relaxes the muscle enough to reduce tension and contour the jawline while leaving the muscles around your mouth and eyes completely unaffected, ensuring your facial expressions and smile remain natural and mobile.
