Gummy Smile
Gummy Smile
La Sonrisa Gingival se produce cuando al sonreír se eleva el labio superior, quedando en evidencia una importante parte de la encía. Es una condición clínica muy frecuente, pero puede ser tratada eficazmente con inyecciones de neuromoduladores y/o de ácido hialurónico. Hay distintos grados de sonrisa gingival y es tratada de acuerdo a las necesidades específicas de cada paciente. En el caso de los neuromoduladores se realizan las inyecciones entre la nariz y el labio superior, para así, relajar la sonrisa y obtener un resultado más armónico.
Procedure
During the treatment the patient will lay down on the medical chair as comfortable as possible. Anaesthesia is not normally used for toxin injection as it is not a significantly painful procedure. However, depending on the tolerance of the patient, an anaesthetic cream is applied before the procedure. After cleaning the area of the that will be treated, the points where the toxin will be injected are marked with a fine and delicate needle for the greatest possible comfort of the patient.
Aftercare and Results
The results can be seen after the third - fourth day, where more tension will be noticed at the beginning in the infiltrated areas and therefore it will be more difficult to form the wrinkle when contracting the muscles. They may appear "purple" and have some swelling, however this rarely occurs. After 15 days the toxin review will be carried out to correct the details and achieve the best possible result. The duration of the treatment varies between 4 - 6 months depending on the metabolism of each patient.
