Facial Cosmetic Clinic

Why Cosmetic Treatment at BU Dental?

The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMS) department offers cosmetic facial treatment for patients interested in receiving Botox^® or dermal fillers. Botox is a quick and effective treatment for aesthetic skin concerns, such as fine lines and wrinkles. It can also be used to treat dental issues such as teeth grinding, clenching, and TMJ.  

What is Botox?

Botox is a popular non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases, crow’s feet, and wrinkles. When Botox is injected, it blocks nerve impulses, giving the skin a smoother appearance. Xeomin^® is the wrinkle-relaxing injectable used here at BU Dental.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers help diminish facial line and restore fullness in the face. Dermal fillers can plump thin lips, soften wrinkles, improve the appearance of recessed scars, and more.

*Our pricing for Botox and dermal fillers are lower than the average reported costs per unit or per syringe in the Boston area, making BU Dental one of the more affordable options in the area.
