Botox
Botox is a simple, non-surgical treatment that softens the appearance of expression lines while helping you maintain a natural, refreshed look. At Metral Dental, Dr. John Christensen provides conservative Botox treatments designed to enhance, not change, your appearance.
Treatment is quick, requires little downtime, and can often be completed during a regular appointment.
