Fuelled by continuous, dedicated research and technological leaps forward, the scope of cosmetic dentistry and plastic and aesthetic surgery grows each year to improve millions of lives – advancements in these procedures allow patients to minimise or eliminate cosmetic flaws that make them self-conscious of their appearance, and often detract from their quality of life.
“The fields of cosmetic dentistry and aesthetic surgery have seen astonishing progress in the last five years. Now, it’s easier than ever before for reconstructive surgeons to sculpt beautiful, natural smiles and stunning, youthful bodies,” says Dr Kathrin Trelles, a leading Dubai-based implantologist cosmetic laser dentist, who has been practising in the emirate since 1999.
Worth special mention is the plastic surgery department at Vilafortuny, which is managed by globally renowned specialist plastic surgeon Dr Mario Trelles – also the owner of the Instituto Medico Vilafortuny in Spain.
“Along with technological advances in the field, the last five years have come stitched on with dramatic changes in society, including a major shift in the attitude toward cosmetic procedures: once limited to movie stars and the wealthy, such procedures have now become more mainstream. Candidates for cosmetic procedures now come from different gender, age and income groups” comments Dr Mario Trelles.
Dr Kathrin Trelles adds: “Our practice is dedicated to comprehensive dental and cosmetic wellness, with an emphasis on cosmetic dentistry and smile rejuvenation using latest techniques such as porcelain crowns, dental veneers, teeth whitening and dental implants. We pride ourselves on delivering technologically-advanced, five-star services, with the wellbeing and comfort of our patients being our primary objectives.”
