There’s something very powerful about a confident smile, so if you have facial lines or wrinkles, it can affect the way you feel about yourself and how you relate to other people. At Bell Hill Dental, we understand that the art of a smile extends to your entire face and that caring for your teeth is only part of what makes your smile special.

That’s why we offer facial rejuvenation and therapeutic muscle relaxant injections using Dysport. This clinically proven treatment can help you look and feel your best.

What Is Dysport? Demystifying Muscle Relaxant Injections

Dysport is similar to BOTOX® in that muscle relaxants work by relaxing facial muscles by blocking the nerve signals to certain areas. It’s often used for cosmetic purposes to reduce crow’s feet or frown lines, but it can also help alleviate the jaw tension and facial pain associated with bruxism.

The Cosmetic Benefits: Facial Rejuvenation with Dysport

Although ageing is a natural process, the deep lines and wrinkles associated with getting older can affect your self-confidence.

Here are the cosmetic benefits of Dysport:

  • Minimising crow’s feet
  • Reducing forehead lines
  • Relaxing the jawline
  • Softening frown lines

The Therapeutic Benefits: Finding Relief from Pain and Tension

Dysport treatments can also provide relief from various muscle-related issues, resulting in decreased tension and pain.

Here are the therapeutic concerns that Dysport addresses:

  • Bruxism (teeth grinding)
  • TMJ dysfunction
  • Facial tension and headaches
  • Neck and shoulder tightness
