Traditional surgeries of the past that were used to correct a high lip
line have been invasive. For example, portions of the upper jaw bone were
often surgically cut and then repositioned to correct the problem. However,
this type of procedure is very costly, has a number of risks involved,
requires general anesthesia, and patients often report high levels of pain
following the procedure. As a result, a majority of patients seeking to
correct their gummy smile do not undergo the traditional surgical treatment
and remain dissatisfied with their smile and appearance.
The Hypermobile Lip procedure involves lowering the lip line thereby
reducing the amount of gum that is exposed while smiling. Unlike the
traditional treatment, this procedure uses local anesthesia to numb the
area. This makes the procedure safer, expedites the patient’s recovery with
minimal pain and allows for the procedure cost to be more economical.
Thanks to his unique approach to Hypermobile Lip surgery, Dr. Farnoosh’s
patients are able to smile with confidence. The popularity of this treatment
method has been widespread and has generated demand from patients across
Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Dr. Farnoosh’s fly-in program
makes it easy for patients to visit his Beverly Hills office from across the
United States or around the world. Additionally, he can combine Hypermobile
Lip Surgery with crown lengthening if needed or even coordinate the
placement of veneers to further drastically enhance patients’ smiles. Other
procedures, such as gum bleaching for the treatment of discolored gums and
traditional teeth cleaning / whitening services, can also be performed at
his office.
Dr. Farnoosh is a leader in the field of cosmetic dentistry and aesthetic
periodontal surgery. In addition to his 25 years of experience in private
dental practice he has been teaching for more than two decades at the
University of Southern California. Because of his credentials, he is
considered by the Consumer Research Council (CRC), an independent research
organization, to be one of “America’s Top Dentists”. Dr Farnoosh has also
pioneered and patented new treatments such as the restoration of natural
color to discolored gums. His innovative research and pioneering procedures
have earned him the recognition of the International Association of Dental
Research and the American Academy of Periodontology.
