As experienced dentists, we’re very used to administering treatments and for the most part, people report a painless and comfortable procedure. We can, however, give you a topical cream which numbs the area before starting if requested.
At Reading Dental Spa, we’re proud to be at the forefront of cosmetic dentistry and a big part of what we do is to go beyond functional treatments and also focus on the appearance and aesthetics of a smile. This is why we provide facial aesthetics in Reading.
Now, patients can undergo proven, non-surgical facial treatments to enhance or rejuvenate their looks or appearance or use it as an add-on service to further complement a treatment or smile.
Non-surgical cosmetic procedures may sound scary but facial aesthetics simply transform how you look and feel through subtle-non-surgical improvements like anti-wrinkle treatment or dermal fillers.
At Reading Dental Spa, we’re trained to carry out simple enhancing procedures that tighten up loose skin, smooth out fine lines and wrinkles and reverse those telltale signs of ageing.
We aim to create facial symmetry and balance that brings out the very best in a smile, boosts confidence and puts a spring back in your step.
Did you know that by the time we hit 30, our skin starts to lose collagen? Collagen provides strength, structure and support for our skin. When we lose collagen we often notice a sagging effect at the jawline, thinning lips and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in the body that cushions and lubricates joints. When it’s applied to areas of the face and neck this harmless substance plumps up and tightens the skin by replacing lost volume. Filling helps to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles while plumping up areas that require definition like cheeks, lips and around the eyes (eyebags).
Ultimately, undergoing dermal filler treatment is a common procedure that can be carried out in a lunch break and depending upon how much work you’d like done, applications take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour.
Most people get dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle treatments confused. While dermal fillers add fullness to areas, wrinkle correction treatments contain a harmless purified bacteria that temporarily freezes muscles. So, while dermal fillers are best for treating static or non-muscular wrinkles, wrinkle correction treatment is better for treating those telltale expression lines that appear when you frown or laugh.
Essentially, anti-wrinkle treatments, work by blocking chemical nerve signals that cause the muscle to contract.
When the facial muscles are relaxed, they can’t cause frown lines hence a more youthful look.
Here at Reading Dental Spa, our team can combine both dermal filler and anti-wrinkle treatments for various areas of your face to truly enhance your smile, making your skin feel fresher, rejuvenated and vibrant.
At Reading Dental Spa, we know that optimal oral health and a great-looking smile are complemented by healthy, attractive-looking skin. We aim to provide you with the whole package. Not only will you have a smile that you can be proud of, but we can also help you achieve a rejuvenated confidence-boosting look that will make you feel like a million dollars.

No. Both wrinkle correction treatments and dermal fillers are temporary procedures lasting roughly 3-4 months so you will need to return for top-up treatments at regular intervals if you want to keep your new look.
At Reading Dental Spa, we use only well-known brands which have been proven, tried and tested over many years. Add to this the experience of our dental team, and we promise that you’re in safe hands.
In the UK, it’s illegal to treat anyone under the age of 18 with cosmetic treatments like dermal fillers or wrinkle correction. Provided you’re over this age, there is no upper age limit.
