HAVE YOU EVERY WISHED YOU SHOWED LESS GUM?

Botox can easily treat a hyperactive lip. If you tend to curl your upper lip under or raise it high above your teeth when you smile, there’s a quick solution. Two tiny injection of Botox can help relax the lip for a more balanced grin. The results are amazing and can have you smiling again in just a couple of hours, if not in less.

Before your appointment:
Tell your doctor if you’ve received any type of botulinum toxin injections within the past four months. And tell him or her if you take muscle relaxants, sleeping aids or allergy medications. If you take blood thinners, you may need to forgo them for several days before your injection, to reduce your risk of bleeding or bruising.

Aftercare:
Botox patients can get back to their usual activities immediately after their appointments. Limitations are quite mild but you should avoid bending over or manipulating the treatment area for the remainder of the day in order to allow the product to settle evenly. You may also wish to skip your daily workout for the same reason, and avoid consuming any blood-thinning products, such as aspirin or alcohol, for a couple of days before and after the procedure for optimal results.
