October 30, 2014 FACEDENT, a clinic in the vanguard of Advanced Aesthetic Medicine Facedent Clinic, located at Avenida de la Marina 29, in Rota, specializes in dental treatments and has the best equipment and a team of highly qualified professionals. In Facedent Clinic, under the direction of the prestigious doctor, Manuel Rull Broquetas, dentistry is accompanied by facial aesthetic treatments. In this sense, Dr. Rull points out “when we rehabilitate a patient with implants, we can rejuvenate the face and we have learned that medical aesthetic treatments increase the satisfaction with the results. At the beginning of this year 2014, Dr. Francisco Ortiz Marti, a renowned expert in Aesthetic Medicine with a long career in the medical profession, was brought into the team at Facedent. He holds his degree in medicine and surgery from the University of Sevilla and has a Master in Aesthetic Medicine from the University of Córdoba. In addition to his already ample professional experience, he has prepared himself with the best injectors in the world and currently he is one of the habitual instructors for Allergan Laboratories, world leader in the sector of facial filling (Juvederm) and toxina botulínica (Botox-Vistabel). The interview with Dr. Ortiz is pleasant and easy going. We ask him to briefly summarize the objectives of Aesthetic Medicine and the most important treatments within his specialty. Our sensation is that in general there is a lack of knowledge and confusion about Aesthetic Medicine and that there are too many “urban legends” about the different therapies. On the other hand, we are used to seeing on TV many “celebrities” excessively treated, occasionally bordering on monstrosity, that scare people that are planning a facial touch up. According to Dr. Ortiz, the objectives of Aesthetic Medicine are the restoration, maintenance and promotion of aesthetics; beauty and health, using medical practices of small interventions and local or topical anaesthetics in an out patient situation. More and more people want to improve their image, an aspect that the National Health Service cannot service. Above

all people look for natural looking results that make them look younger within reasonable limits. In Spain we follow the steps of the U.S. market and the future is very promising. Products of higher quality and non surgical techniques are used every day that satisfy millions of people. There are three big groups of treatments in Aesthetic Medicine. The first group deals with improving the quality of the skin and fighting the effects of aging (anti-aging therapies) caused by the sun, tobacco and other oxidizing agents. These treatments would include peelings, immunotherapy (vitamins, hyaluronic fillers, factors of epidermis growth) lasers and cosmetic treatments. The second therapeutic group is oriented to combat dynamic facial wrinkles (caused by muscular contractions) and the star treatment is Botox or

Vistabel. (This is the treatment most valued by Aesthetic Medicine patients world wide.) Filling products make up the third Group of treatments and are used to erase wrinkles and lines, restore volume and for non surgical liftings. Now days the tendency is to use absorbable and natural materials; the most important of which is hyaluronic acid, a fundamental component of our skin. Dr. Ortiz advises everyone interested in a medical-aesthetic touch up to go to clinics of recognized prestige (authorized by the Junta of Andalucía), and get professional advice. Patients frequently value price above all else and although it is something to consider, it is the quality of the products that will be used and the technical capacity of the doctor that will treat us that should matter most when making the decision. A new arrival to Rota, Dr. Ortiz wants us to know he is very grateful to Dr. Rull for giving him the opportunity to work in his clinic and for getting to know this friendly town that has been so welcoming.
