Cosmetic Treatments
Cosmetic treatments are surgical and non-surgical procedures that provide patients with a more youthful-looking appearance. Skin rejuvenation and cosmetic treatments can improve the appearance of the face and the contours of the body, resulting in a renewed sense of confidence. Cosmetic treatments offer long-lasting results that combat the signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, cellulite, and more. At Pashapour Oral + Facial Surgery we offer cosmetic treatments for both the face and the body to assist patients in achieving their desired looks while promoting a natural, youthful-looking appearance. Cosmetic treatments offered at Pashapour Oral + Facial surgery include Morpheus8 microneedling for the face and body.
Morpheus8 is an FDA approved, minimally invasive microneedling technique that can be utilized to address common skin concerns for the face and body. Morpheus8 is performed by using radio frequency technology to heat the tissue in the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production. Morpheus8 for the face provides patients with skin tightening results while reducing fine lines and wrinkles, lifting sagging skin, boosting collagen production, and more. Morpheus8 face targets nasolabial folds, jowls, loss of volume, fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin around the neck and chin.
Morpheus8 for the body is a highly customizable procedure that combats cellulite, stretch marks, tightens the skin, and minimizes scarring. Morpheus8 body can target multiple areas such as the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, buttocks, knees, flanks, and more. With Morpheus8 facial and body tightening, patients can achieve a rejuvenated, more youthful appearance to their skin.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry uses various forms of anesthesia to ensure patient comfort while undergoing an oral treatment or oral surgery. Some of the most common forms of anesthesia used at our practice are nitrous oxide, IV sedation, local anesthesia, and general anesthesia. The type of anesthesia used during your procedure will depend on the type of surgery you are undergoing, your general health, and medical background. While anesthesia is used to ensure patient comfort, it may also be useful for patients with a fear or anxiety towards dentists or for patients who are unable to comfortably sit still for long periods of time.
Nitrous oxide, which is often referred to as laughing gas, is administered through a nose mask and allows the patient to remain conscious but in an incredibly relaxed state where they cannot feel pain. IV sedation is also referred to as twilight anesthesia and causes the patient to be fully unaware of the procedure. An example of local anesthesia is Novocain. These types of anesthesia are only applied to a local area and limits the range of effect. This is helpful when only a small portion of the mouth needs to be numbed for a procedure to be performed. Finally, general anesthesia puts the patient fully to sleep for more advanced surgical procedures. We can discuss the various differences between each anesthesia and decide which is best for your particular procedure. Click the below button to learn more about sedation dentistry.
In-House Dental Lab
At Pashapour Oral + Facial Surgery, we are one of the few oral surgery practices in the Arlington and DC areas to offer our very own in-house dental lab that allows us to streamline the dental restoration process. Traditionally, oral surgeons would refer their patients out to have their dental prosthetics crafted and fitted. Rather, our in-house lab allows us to complete all of the phases of dental restoration at our office. This allows for not only increased communication between our oral surgeon and the lab technicians, but increased patient convenience and satisfaction. Our oral surgeon works closely with our lab technicians to create the ideal dental restoration fit for you. This entire process is overseen by our oral surgeon. We believe in keeping up to date on the latest technology. This not only increases patient comfort and safety, but offers the most perfected smile restorations, including crowns, prosthetics for dental implant procedures such as All-On-4® and All-On-X, dentures, and more. Our dental lab utilizes some of the most advanced technology to help you achieve your goals. Click the button below to learn more about our state-of-the-art in-house lab.
