Gummy Smile
Welcome to the Gummy Smile Muscle Relaxant treatment at Drs. Samana Clinics. Our treatment subtly refines your smile by reducing gum visibility. With carefully placed Muscle Relaxant injections, we relax specific muscles, creating a softer, more balanced smile. We preserve your natural expression, allowing you to smile confidently without drastic changes.
Muscle Relaxant, derived from botulinum, is a controlled and safe injectable that temporarily reduces muscle activity by blocking nerve signals to the muscles. The Gummy Smile treatment uses botulinum to relax specific muscles around the upper lip, reducing gum visibility when smiling. This subtle approach creates a balanced smile without surgery.
What to Expect During the Treatment?
The treatment involves a series of small injections using a very fine needle, ensuring a comfortable and virtually painless experience. Our specialists work with utmost care and precision to help you feel completely at ease. The process includes:
- Cleansing – Thoroughly cleansing your face with a mild alcohol solution.
- Injection – Administering one or more Spierontspanners injections into the muscles around the upper lip, based on your preferences.
- Stabilization– Light pressure is applied with a gauze pad to stabilize the Spierontspanners.
- Duration – The treatment is completed in just 20 minutes.
When Will You See Results?
Results are noticeable within 2 to 8 days post-treatment, with full effects visible after about 2 weeks. The effects typically last 3 to 6 months. For long-term relief, we recommend repeating the treatment every 6 months. A follow-up appointment after 4 weeks is recommended to assess if additional injections are needed.
