TREATMENT BACKGROUND
Excessive gingival display more commonly known as ‘gummy smile’ is the over prominence of the gums when smiling. Having an appealing smile can be one of the most attractive characteristics of a person’s face and so we understand why clients feel the need to correct this condition. Botulinum Toxin is used to inject on either side of the mouth to relax the muscle and allow the lip to cover up the gums. This used alongside filler can be used to complete enhance the lip and create a prominent and appealing smile.
DOES IT HURT?
Botulinum Toxin treatments tend to only take around 15 minutes. A very fine needle is used which means any pain that is experienced is only ever minimal. It is often compared to that of a pin prick.
SIDE EFFECTS
Results are immediate with no downtime. As with all treatments we provide an aftercare pack which contains further information about your treatment. This will include guidance and advice on follow up injections.
