GUMMY SMILE TREATMENT IN ALTRINCHAM & HALE, CHESHIRE

Transform Your Smile in Altrincham. At Dr. Ed Robinson Aesthetics, we specialise in advanced anti-wrinkle treatments for correcting gummy smiles. Our clinic in Altrincham is dedicated to providing personalised and effective solutions to enhance your smile.

WHAT CAUSES A GUMMY SMILE? A gummy smile occurs when a significant portion of the gum is visible above the top teeth while smiling. This can be due to several factors, including genetics, excessive gum tissue, or the way your upper lip moves.

OUR TREATMENT APPROACH: We use advanced Botox injections to treat a gummy smile. This minimally invasive procedure relaxes the muscles of the upper lip, reducing its elevation when smiling and thereby lessening gum visibility.

GUMMY SMILE TREATMENT IN CHESHIRE FAQ

  • Gummy Smile treatments in Altrincham are very quick and usually take about 30 minutes.

  • Botox treatments can also be used to relax a gummy smile by relaxing the muscles above the lips.

    Common concerns patients report include having ‘small teeth big gums’. Gummy Smile Treatment in Altrincham can improve this appearance.

  • Please come to the clinic without make-up as this will have to be removed.

    Avoid the use of skincare active ingredients on the day and stop any retinol-containing products 24 hours before-hand.

    Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to treatment.

  • Gummy Smile treatment involves several small, relatively painless injections in the face using very slim needles.

    The face will be cleaned before-hand with antiseptic and aftercare will be applied once treatment is completed.

    Note that prior to treatment a personalised consultation and full assessment of the face is necessary to assess the best approach.

  • Gummy Smile treatment usually lasts approximately 3-4 months.

    Lifestyle factors such as physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, recreational drug use and sun exposure will result in a shorter duration of action.

  • Not immediately!

    Gummy Smile treatment results usually start to become apparent after 2-3 days.

    Peak effect is usually at 2 weeks and at this point a complementary top-up will be offered to correct any assymetry or increase the dose as required.

  • There are very few side-effects or complications following Gummy Smile treatment.

    Mild swelling is usually very brief and small bruises may occasionally occur.

    Avoid the use of active skin ingredients on the day of treatment.

    Avoid the consumption of alcohol for 24-48 hours.

    Avoid strenuous activity, saunas/steam rooms which may promote sweating as this increases your risk of bruising.

    Do not massage the face immediately after treatment.

  • Gummy Smile treatment costs £200. Please see the pricing section for all prices.

  • Gummy Smile Treatment in Altrincham involves very slim needles and treatment is usually painless.

  • Absolutely! Botox or even ‘Brotox’ (as you may have heard) is increasing in popularity. Book a consultation to see what other treatments may be suitable.

  • Patient safety is my number one priority when treating.

    Botox is well-studied, safe and has a very low risk of complications and side effects when administered by a trained medical professional.

    The NHS website is a fantastic resource regarding the safety of cosmetic procedures including botox.

    Gummy Smile treatments are not suitable for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, allergic to botulinum toxin, taking certain antibiotics or who have certain neurological disorders such as myasthenia gravis.

  • Side effects are a rare (but not impossible) result of treatment. As a trained medical professional, I am well positioned to minimise these risks.

    Side-effects include:

    Headaches and flu-like symptoms

    Pain, swelling and potential bruising to the area of the injection
