He advocates for combination therapies that deliver visible yet natural-looking outcomes. His approach typically includes relaxing lines with Botulinum toxin, sculpting and lifting facial contours with fillers & devices, and revitalizing skin tone and texture through advanced skin treatments.
Some of Dr. Dennis Teng's signature treatments include:
Combining Btx, fillers and energy-based devices for full-face contouring, ideal for both rejuvenating aging faces, beautifying younger visages.
Btx for dynamic wrinkles, to soften lines and refresh facial expressions.
Facial fillers to restore the facial contours and ogee curve, lift cheeks, and enhance lips with balance and proportion.
