Hi Dr Hughes,

I wanted some advice on the best procedure for correcting overexposure of gums (i.e. high lip line). I’ve read that this can either be corrected with gum contouring or via lip repositioning (or a procedure that limits the movement of the upper lip). I’m a lot less keen on the latter option but, in my opinion, I think that I have what might be called a moderate gummy smile.. I don’t know, a dentist would know best. I’d be happy to send you a photo to get your initial advice ahead of booking a consultation..

I wanted to know if you could explain a bit more about the different options and which would be best.

Could you also kindly tell me what the price range is for this?

Lastly, I have been living in London for year but am just about to move to Dubai for a couple of months, I will be back in the summer. If you could let me know how long the waiting list is, if there is one, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks very much for all your help in advance.

Best,
