The Non-Surgical Face Lift

Imagine taking ten years off of your face in one day, without surgery. Dr. Patric Cohen is known for the non-surgical face-lift that reduces wrinkles in the lower part of your face and can also improve the positioning of your lips. Have you always wanted those full pouty lips that many of today's actresses have? By manipulating the width, length and positioning of your teeth, Dr. Cohen can decrease wrinkles, plump up your lips and give you a much more youthful appearance, without surgery. This is accomplished using very thin porcelain veneers that are made to look as if they were your own teeth. By thickening the upper portion of the veneers, Dr. Cohen is able to plump out the upper lip and reduce the wrinkles around the lips, give you that Hollywood pout.

Teeth Lengthening - As we age, there is a tendency for the length of our teeth to get shorter. By making veneers longer we create a more youthful appearance. The smile actually becomes broader and fuller.

Eliminating Negative Buccal Space- When some people smile, it appears as if there is a black hole in the corners of their mouths. This is known as negative buccal space. By widening the teeth towards the back of the mouth with porcelain veneers, Dr. Cohen is able to eliminate this black hole an increase the overall width of the smile, giving you a younger whiter appearance.

Color- The older we get, the more discolored are teeth become. By creating natural, lighter colored veneers that are placed over the discolored teeth; we are able to brighten up your smile, taking years off your appearance.

What Are Porcelain Veneers? The procedure for making Porcelain veneers begins with the removal of a thin layer of the outer enamel (about the .5mm thick). Next we take impressions of the prepared teeth and send the impressions to a dental laboratory that specializes in the fabrication of Porcelain veneers. The laboratory then artistically creates the very thin Porcelain veneers for the teeth with all the changes in shape, size, color and teeth position based on the doctor’s custom lab prescription. During the short period of time the veneers are being created, our guests have custom made temporary veneers on their teeth. At the second visit, the doctor removes the temporary veneers and bonds the porcelain veneers onto your teeth. The bonding cement is cured using a high intensity light which holds the veneers in place. The bond is extremely strong.

A New You- By using all of the above techniques, Dr. Cohen can give you that more youthful appearance that you have been looking for, without the use of fillers, botox or other cosmetic surgery procedures.
