Orofacial Harmonization
Orofacial harmonization is a sub-field of dental medicine focused on diagnosing, preventing, and harmonizing facial features.
Through this treatment, performed using aesthetic injectables, we can soften facial appearance, correct wrinkles, expression lines, folds, and other facial imperfections. Additionally, facial harmony can be achieved with minimally invasive procedures, making it the perfect solution for those seeking to improve the skin’s appearance without resorting to plastic surgery.
Among the most common treatments in orofacial harmonization are the application of botulinum toxin (BOTOX), facial fillers with hyaluronic acid, and treatments using biostimulatory medications.
Several factors contribute to an aged appearance, including natural aging, lifestyle habits, and even tooth loss, which impacts facial structure and overall appearance. To rejuvenate the skin and restore hydration, glow, and firmness, treatments can be used to restore lost facial volume. These techniques help smooth wrinkles and recover the original bone structure, promoting a more youthful and revitalized look.
Type A botulinum toxin is used to treat wrinkles, while hyaluronic acid helps restore lost volume and skin hydration caused by aging and reduces asymmetries resulting from extended periods without teeth. If the skin has excessive laxity, appearing saggy or lifeless, biostimulatory treatments may also be used.
At Medidental, we perform orofacial harmonization treatments not only in connection with dental medicine but also for facial aesthetics.

Orofacial Harmonization is a set of minimally invasive aesthetic procedures aimed at improving facial appearance and harmony.
Contrary to popular belief, these treatments are not only used to soften expression wrinkles but also to help create a perfect smile.
While Botulinum Toxin (BOTOX®) and Hyaluronic Acid are the most sought-after, MEDIDENTAL TIMELESS offers a wide variety of treatments:
Botulinum Toxin A (Botox®) Application
BOTOX® is a brand of botulinum toxin injected to reduce the contraction of certain facial muscles. It can be used for aesthetic correction or to treat certain medical conditions.
The result is a reduction in dynamic wrinkles—those that appear with facial expressions.
Botox results look very natural and give a more relaxed, rejuvenated appearance—contrary to the common myth surrounding this treatment. It’s highly sought-after for preserving natural facial features.
This treatment is recommended for:
- Forehead wrinkles
- Glabellar lines (between the eyebrows)
- Crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes)
- Bunny lines (wrinkles on the bridge of the nose)
- Bruxism (teeth grinding)
- Gummy smile
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that plays a key role in skin hydration and elasticity, helping maintain a youthful appearance. This molecule can attract up to 1000 times its weight in water, which is essential for skin health.
As we age, our natural hyaluronic acid levels decrease, which can lead to more pronounced wrinkles, facial volume loss, and dull-looking skin.
Common concerns include:
- Nasolabial folds (“smile lines”)
- Dry, thin lips
- Perioral wrinkles
- Poorly defined facial contour
Areas that can be treated with hyaluronic acid include:
- Nasolabial folds
- Perioral lines (“barcode lines”)
- Marionette lines
It can also be used to improve the following:
- Lips (increase volume and enhance contour)
- Cheekbones (restore volume and define contour)
- Tear troughs (under-eye hollows)
- Jawline and chin (for better definition)
Biostimulators
This treatment uses substances injected or implanted beneath the skin to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production.
Collagen is responsible for keeping tissues firm and the skin smooth. With biostimulators, the body naturally increases collagen, which rejuvenates the skin, improving sagging, texture, and radiance progressively and naturally.
Target areas include:
- Face (to improve skin laxity and tone)
- Neck (to reduce sagging)
There are also options for the eye area and around the mouth. Typically, 2 to 3 sessions are required for visible results, lasting around 18 to 24 months.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure using a device with micro-needles (0.025 mm to 2.5 mm) that creates tiny punctures in the skin, triggering collagen production.
Depending on the treatment goal, vitamins, hyaluronic acid, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can be added. At least 4 monthly sessions are recommended for optimal results.
The procedure causes minimal discomfort, like a light scratching sensation, and offers many benefits:
- Smooths skin texture
- Reduces pore size
- Improves superficial scars
- Fades dark spots
- Reduces fine lines
Mesotherapy with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
This procedure involves collecting a small sample of the patient’s blood, which is centrifuged to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma is rich in growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration, boost collagen production, increase cell renewal, and improve blood flow.
The PRP is injected into several points on the face or applied with microneedling.
The result is more youthful and revitalized skin, making this an excellent anti-aging treatment for maintenance and prevention.
Skinboosters
This treatment is designed to deeply hydrate the skin using hyaluronic acid. It is injected into strategic points on the face to provide deep hydration and a youthful glow.
By increasing hydration, hyaluronic acid also stimulates fibroblasts, helping reduce skin laxity.
This is the ideal complement to BOTOX®, especially for those who want visible hydration improvements but do not yet show significant sagging.
This is one of our most popular treatments.
The protocol includes 2 sessions spaced one month apart.
Key benefits:
- Improves skin hydration and quality
- Restores tissue without adding volume
- Stimulates elastin and four types of collagen
- Reduces aging signs and sagging
- Cellular bioremodeling and tissue regeneration
