Facial Aesthetic Treatments in Blackrock, South Dublin
The Finishing Touch to Your Seapoint Smile
Nature is all about balance. Our philosophy in facial aesthetics is to try to work with nature but to give you a better version of yourself.
Facial aesthetic treatments are the perfect accompaniment to a set of beautiful teeth. After all, the lips frame the teeth, so a perfect smile needs the correct lip shape and position around it to look its best.
We have some highly skilled dentists who are also extensively trained in facial aesthetics. As such, they are uniquely qualified to ensure your smile and face work together in harmony.
Our dentists are highly trained in the detailed anatomy of the face, and as they constantly give injections, they are typically the most gentle injectors.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections
If you want to look younger, then with these gentle injections, you can take years off your appearance in just a single visit. Areas that can be treated include the forehead, between the eyes, crow’s feet, and much more.
Our anti-wrinkle treatments target key areas of facial movement to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Treatment is quick, comfortable, and requires no downtime, with results typically lasting 3-6 months.
Perfect For…
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines between eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Neck bands
Gummy Smiles
Improving a ‘gummy smile’ used to require a really major surgery, which involved cutting some jawbones and resetting the position to a more aesthetic one. Now, it just requires a few small injections under the lip.
By relaxing the muscles which excessively elevate the lips, it is possible to eliminate a gummy smile for up to six months with each injection. Results usually take a few days to achieve their maximum effect.
Perfect For…
- Reducing gum visibility when smiling
- Creating a more balanced smile
- Boosting confidence in your appearance
- Providing results within days
- Long-lasting effects (around six months)
Teeth Grinding Treatments
Traditional methods for teeth grinding and clenching involve the use of nightguards or splints, which must be worn every night. While these work well, some patients can find them to be uncomfortable to wear and need alternative options.
Now, it is possible to use anti-wrinkle injections to reduce the muscle size and tension caused by teeth grinding. In one simple visit, the muscles can be relaxed for up to six months. This usually leads to less damage to the teeth and an improved appearance, with large muscles returning to normal size.
Perfect For…
- Reducing muscle tension and pain
- Preventing further tooth damage
- Slimming facial appearance as muscles relax
- Long-lasting relief from symptoms
