Gummy Smile

The Gummy Smile occurs when the upper lip rises when smiling, revealing an important part of the gum. It is a very common clinical condition, but it can be effectively treated with Botox and / or hyaluronic acid injections. There are different degrees of gummy smile and it is treated according to the specific needs of each patient. In the case of Botox, injections are made between the nose and the upper lip, in order to relax the smile and obtain a more harmonious result.

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.
