Could I get gum recontouring and teeth whitening done in one go?

Q.
Hi I have had braces for two years and am about to get them removed. I have a ‘gummy smile’ though and I was just wondering if while wearing a retainer (obviously I could remove it during the surgery!) could I have gum contouring done? Also I would like to have my teeth whitened by laser. So could I have my teeth whitened and gum contouring done in the same surgery so I can be under general anasthetic? Thanks so much this will improve my confidence drastically!

I am not sure whether you are actually having a general anesthetic to have your brace removed!
Gum recontouring can be done but will require bone recontouring if applicable
