Your facial aesthetics journey begins with a personal consultation. This can take place in person or online via our Facial Aesthetics Assessment Form, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your concerns and discuss your desired outcomes directly with our team.
During your consultation, you’ll experience a relaxed and informative discussion where the benefits and limitations of any potential treatment will be explained honestly. Our team takes time to tailor each treatment plan to suit your individual goals, needs, and budget.
If it becomes clear that a particular treatment will not benefit you, the team will not proceed – your safety and satisfaction come first.
Should treatment be appropriate, it may be carried out during the same visit. However, the consultation is entirely free of charge and without obligation, so that you can make your decision with complete confidence and no pressure.
You’ll be given a full quote upfront, with no hidden costs. A comprehensive medical history will also be taken to ensure that the treatment is safe and suitable for you.
You can expect your visit to be pleasant, unhurried, and fully supportive, whether you proceed with treatment or not. If you have any questions – even small ones – we’re always happy to help.
We use anti-wrinkle treatments to relax specific facial muscles by gently blocking nerve signals. This reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, delivering a smoother and more refreshed look. The treatment is quick and minimally uncomfortable.
Is It Safe?
Yes. Anti-wrinkle treatments have been used safely for both medical and cosmetic treatments for over 20 years. While mild side effects such as minor bruising may occasionally occur, more serious effects are rare. Around 1-3% of patients may experience a temporary ‘droopy eyelid’, which resolves over time or can be corrected.
To ensure your safety and optimal results, treatment must be carried out by a trained and qualified clinician in a properly equipped clinical setting.
Will My Face Look Frozen?
No. The “frozen” look only occurs when too many anti-wrinkle treatments are used. The team is committed to subtle, natural-looking results. During your consultation, they will explain how small, precise doses are used to soften wrinkles while allowing your natural facial expressions to shine through.
Why Do Lines Form - And How Does Treatment Help?
Repeated facial expressions – such as frowning, squinting, or pursing the lips – cause the skin to fold. Over time, this leads to the development of fine lines and deeper wrinkles. Anti-wrinkle treatments work by preventing the muscle movements that create these lines.
When used early enough, it can even prevent deeper lines from forming, making it an excellent tool for both correction and prevention.
Which Areas Can Be Treated?
We currently offer treatment for the most commonly requested areas on the upper face, including:
Forehead lines.
Frown lines (number 11s between the eyebrows).
Crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes).
What Can I Expect After Treatment?
Following treatment, you may notice minor red marks at the treatment sites, but these usually disappear quickly. You can resume most daily activities right away, though we recommend avoiding intense exercise for the rest of the day.
Some patients experience a minor headache or light bruising, which can easily be covered with makeup if needed.
Results begin to appear within a few days and reach their full effect around 14 days post-treatment. A review appointment is scheduled at this time to ensure you’re happy with the results and make any minor adjustments if needed.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The effects of anti-wrinkle treatments typically last 3 to 6 months. As the muscle activity gradually returns, lines may reappear, and repeat treatment will be needed to maintain the results.
With regular use, the longevity of your results may improve, as the treated muscles are gradually retrained to relax.

I saw Eva and Dylis today for a hygiene appointment and they were both so lovely! They made me feel at ease straight away and Eva was excellent clinically- she has a very calming nature. Thank you both for your exceptional level of care.
Excellent dental practice. Friendly, calm, professional staff especially great with our two children, both of whom can be anxious in unfamiliar situations but who were treated with patience and kindness. They also spotted that both our children would need specialist orthodontist appointments and made referrals to a local specialist.
My dentist is absolutely brilliant and I never thought id say that about a dentist lol!! Tom is brilliant my anxiety was through the roof knowing i had to have injections for a filling he made me feel at ease, he warned me before he done the injections and was so gentle it didn't hurt at all (ive had it jammed in my gums before no warning either by other dentists) he even cleaned the hole in my tooth before doing the filling and i think after the filling he done so much to it after making sure it was ok and my bite was ok before ive had the filling and thats it im out the chair not with Tom u can tell he cares!! And does a great job!! my 14 yr old had a very bad experience before were it scared her so much but again Tom was great with her and she was so happy when he said that shes doing a great job with her teeth cleaning!!! I hope he never leaves!!! He is lovely frendly and careing!! Now Pat one of the receptionist ladies Again Pat is lovely careing, friendly and again gos out of her way to help she really is a star 🌟 she is great friendly and helpful and careing and then Marie the other receptionist I normally have calls from pat and reminders, but the few times ive seen Marie shes always been lovely friendly and helpful, out of all the dentists ive had this group has been the best and I hope there around for a long time cuz the promenade wouldn't be the same without them!!! 😁
I I have been a client of Promenade Dental for over 20 years having changed to them following a bad experience with another dentist. I cannot fault the service and facilities. The team are super friendly special mention to the lovely reception staff who put you at ease the minute you walk in.I recently had composite bonding to my teeth . In fact it was complicated as I had succumbed whilst on holiday in South Africa and unfortunately it was not done correctly. Alex had to remove all the bad work before he could start again. He was so patient and explained everything beforehand. He is a perfectionist with great attention to detail. I am absolutely delighted with the result and feel so much more confident. The cost was significantly less than other quotes I received. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone considering composite and Promenade as an excellent Debtal practice.
Extremely fortunate to be a patient at this practice since I moved here in 2017. Used to have the wonderful Regina as a dentist but now she's gradually reducing her caseload, I have moved over to Harriet who's also brilliant. I've had a few personal worries recently, but it's always reassuring to visit this practice where staff are warm and treat you with utmost care - the whole 'journey' from arrival with reception to dental treatment itself is a positive one. I've also had follow up calls to check I'm ok which is really something. Thanks, Team.
A friendly local dental practice. The treatments we have had (the whole family) have always been professionally carried out. We have had good experience with all the dentists and hygienists.
Regina Bormann has been out family dentist for over 15 years now. A brilliant specialist, so lucky to have her. Always professional and friendly service from everyone at the Promenade. Thank you!
Monique is by far the best hygienist I have ever had in the 30+ years of having regular cleanings.An incredible deep clean with fantastic attention to detail. You can tell that time and care is taken followed up with just the right amount of admonishment to do more flossing without making you feel bad.I would 100% recommend.
I signed up to The Promenade Dental Practice in 2008, and stayed for 15 years until I moved away. Treatment has always been excellent, and the admin team friendly and incredibly efficient. They're a great dentists practice.
I had my first check-up with Aida Abas on 20/06/2024. Aida was amazing I told her that I was allergic to epinephrine and have a needle phobia, and she was so understanding and put my mind at ease for my first appointment today, 18/07/2024. I was a bit apprehensive goi g to my appointment but Aida make me feel relaxed and actually excited for the appointment as she was so friendly, upbeat, and and letting me know that there was nothing to worry about. Aida was sensational and so professional. In all my years Aida is the first dentist that I have had where I didn’t feel any pain or anxiety having the local anaesthetic - I actually didn’t even feel her do it - yeah she is that good. What I liked was that Aida went through all the steps of what she was going to do and also told me what she was doing while she was doing it, which both helped me relax and also masked the sound of that dreaded drill (great technique). Aida deserves more that 5 Stars, and also a bonus or pay rise. I highly recommend Aida. Thank you so much! 🙏🏾 Xx
Iv been with promenade for a few years now and it is honestly the best practice I have ever been with. Struggling with a phobia of the dentist I have always felt completely out at ease whenever I visit. Ida the dentist I see regularly is absolutely amazing and has always made me feel comfortable and heard. All my treatments from her have been done so well. Cannot recommend promenade enough!!
