5 questions to ask a new Facial Aesthetics practitioner

Choosing the right practitioner for facial aesthetic treatments is essential for achieving beautiful, natural-looking results safely. Before booking your treatment, here are five key questions to ask:

1. What are your qualifications?

Ask about your practitioner’s medical qualifications and specific training in facial aesthetics. Registered medical professionals — such as dentists, doctors, and nurses — have a thorough understanding of facial anatomy and are better equipped to provide safe, effective treatments.

2. Are you insured and regulated?

Make sure your practitioner has appropriate insurance and is registered with a relevant regulatory body. This not only ensures accountability but also means they adhere to strict safety and hygiene standards.

3. What products do you use?

It’s important to know which products are being injected into your face. Reputable practitioners will use high-quality, approved products from trusted manufacturers. If they are hesitant to disclose this information, consider it a red flag.

4. Can I see examples of your work?

A trustworthy practitioner will be happy to show you before and after photos of previous patients (with their permission). This helps you understand their style and get a sense of the naturalness and quality of their results.

5. What happens if something goes wrong?

While complications are rare when treatments are performed by qualified professionals, they can still happen. A reputable practitioner should be able to explain their emergency protocols and what support they offer if something doesn’t go as planned.

Bonus: Are you Save Face accredited?

Practices accredited by Save Face have been independently verified for their safety, hygiene, and professional standards. Choosing an accredited clinic adds an extra layer of reassurance.

At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we encourage open, honest discussions with all patients. We’re proud to be Save Face accredited and to offer treatments in a safe, caring environment led by experienced dental professionals.

Brushing your teeth is important… but it’s only part of the story 🦷

In this video, Richard explains why cleaning between your teeth matters too - and the different ways you can do it, including:
✔ Floss
✔ TePe brushes
✔ Water flossers

Your toothbrush can’t always reach the tight spaces between your teeth, which means plaque and food can build up in these areas over time.

Cleaning between your teeth daily can help reduce:
✨ Gum problems
✨ Bad breath
✨ Tooth decay between teeth

Not sure which option is best for you? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and our team can help you find what works best for your smile and lifestyle.

Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches or tension in your face? You could be clenching or grinding your teeth without even realising it.

In this video, Yasmin discusses how neurotoxin injections may help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ problems and teeth grinding.

For some patients, treatment can help to:
✨ Relax overactive jaw muscles
✨ Reduce clenching and grinding
✨ Ease tension and discomfort
✨ Help with headaches linked to jaw strain

Many people grind their teeth during sleep or clench during stressful periods, often without knowing they’re doing it.

If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as:
• Jaw ache
• Facial tension
• Headaches
• Worn teeth
• Clicking or tightness in the jaw

…it may be worth exploring your options.

✨ A little update from us at Evolve Dentistry ✨

As many of our patients know, our practice is currently closed this week while essential repair work is being carried out.

While everything is being completed, we’d just like to gently remind everyone not to leave any dental concerns until the last minute where possible. If something doesn’t feel quite right, please get in touch with us sooner rather than later so we can help arrange the most appropriate care for you.

Thank you so much for your patience, kindness and understanding while the work takes place - we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back very soon. 💙

Did you know? 👀

One of the simplest ways to improve your oral health is cleaning between your teeth every day.

Your toothbrush cleans the front, back and biting surfaces of your teeth - but it can’t always reach the tight spaces in between, where plaque and food can build up.

Using interdental brushes or floss daily can help:
✨ Reduce gum problems
✨ Freshen breath
✨ Lower the risk of decay between teeth

Not sure which products are best for you? Our team would always be happy to help guide you.

Small habits really do make a big difference 💙
