Dr. Darian Anderson, cosmetic dentist at Muse Aesthetics and Dentistry in Del Mar

We're a boutique aesthetics and dental studio in Del Mar dedicated to enhancing your natural beauty from every angle. Sarah, NP-C, specializes in subtle, bespoke injectable treatments — facial balancing, neuromodulators, and fillers — using advanced techniques to create results that look effortlessly refreshed, never overdone. Dr. Darian brings the same artistry to cosmetic dentistry — designing confident, natural smiles through porcelain veneers, smile makeovers, and whitening.

Together, we take a full-face approach — because your smile and your skin deserve to work in harmony. Our goal is for you to look like the most elevated version of yourself — so you can truly be your own muse.

frequently asked questions

  • Yes. Muse is a combined cosmetic dental and medical aesthetics studio in Del Mar. Dr. Darian handles the dental side (veneers, smile makeovers, clear aligners, whitening) and Sarah, NP-C leads the aesthetic side (Botox, filler, facial balancing, Sculptra, microneedling). Many patients see us for both, and we often coordinate treatment plans across the two sides.

  • We're boutique and fee-for-service, which means we don't work with insurance networks or corporate systems that dictate how long we spend with each patient. Every appointment is personalized, unhurried, and focused on the result rather than the production schedule.

  • The easiest first step is our free Virtual Smile Consultation. Send us a few photos of your smile and Dr. Darian will personally review them and share honest feedback on your options, whether that's veneers, whitening, clear aligners, or a combination.

  • Never. Consultations are a conversation. We'll talk through what you're hoping for, take photos and a 3D scan if appropriate, and give you a clear plan with pricing. You decide from there on your own timeline.

  • Facial balancing is an artistic approach to injectables that treats your face as a whole rather than focusing on one isolated feature. Instead of chasing a specific wrinkle or volume goal, Sarah maps the proportions and symmetry of your entire face and uses neurotoxins and filler strategically to bring it into harmony. The result is a subtle, refreshed look where nothing stands out as "done."

  • No. Both Dr. Darian and Sarah share a philosophy grounded in restraint, artistry, and results that look completely natural. On the dental side, Dr. Darian's approach to veneers and smile design is conservative and facially integrated, no chunky or overly white "fake" smiles. On the aesthetic side, Sarah's work with neurotoxins, filler, and facial balancing is subtle and precise, designed to refresh rather than transform. The goal across both sides of Muse is the same: you should leave looking like the most elevated version of yourself, with results so natural that people notice you, not the work
