How to get rid of a gummy smile and options for chin and jaw correction

Q. Hi, Just a few questions if you could help? I’m 23 and recently coming to the end of my treatment from the damon braces. My teeth are still not perfectly straight, i still have a cross bit and over bite, but its much better than it was. I am looking at a few things to complete everything. One being how to get rid of my gummy smile. I’n not sure which option to take? My cosmetic dentist has said botox to stop my lip rising? but ive seen gum contouring or lip flap surgery, not sure of the name, but where they reposistion the lip? Second thing is my chin/jaw. I’m not sure if I should have a chin implant, neck lift of correction jaw surgery. Which do you think would be the best options and best prices? I’ve even considered going abroad as the fee’s are so much here in the uk! I hope you can help, Thanks, 

A. Hi

all of these treatments can improve this condition, however I would need to see you to give you a proper opinion. I would recommend trying a few different cosmetic dentists and obtaining various options and prices before thinking of embarking on surgery oversea’s
