Facial Aesthetics Injector
Dr. Melissa Patel is a qualified general and cosmetic dentist with a special interest in facial aesthetics. With a passion for enhancing natural beauty, Melissa combines her in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy with a gentle, artistic approach to deliver safe and effective aesthetic treatments.
Melissa believes that facial aesthetics and dentistry go hand in hand — a beautiful smile deserves the perfect frame. Treatments such as lip enhancements to complement a new smile, gummy smile correction, and profile balancing after orthodontic treatment are some of the ways she helps patients achieve truly harmonious results.
In addition to cosmetic treatments, Melissa also provides therapeutic treatments that can support dental health, including solutions for teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw clenching, and even certain types of tension headaches.
As a dentist, Melissa has an exceptional understanding of the head and neck anatomy — her area of daily expertise — which makes her uniquely qualified to provide injectable treatments safely and precisely. She is also highly skilled with needles, often joking that she’s more comfortable holding one than a pen!
Melissa believes that confidence starts with feeling good about yourself, and she strives to provide a positive, educational, and empowering experience for every patient. Her goal is to help you feel informed, comfortable, and supported every step of the way, so you can make decisions about your treatments with confidence.
Outside of work, Melissa loves spending time with friends and family, hosting dinners, cooking, and traveling the world — whether it’s backpacking adventures or luxury getaways. She is a passionate advocate for self-love and believes in uplifting and supporting others.
