39. Is a lip tie procedure painful?

Lip Tie Procedure

Most children experience very little discomfort during a lip tie procedure. We use gentle techniques and local numbing and laser technology to make the process as quick and comfortable as possible.
After the procedure:

-Your child may have mild soreness or tenderness for a day or two
-Any discomfort is usually easily managed with soft foods and over-the-counter pain relief if needed
-Most children return to normal activities quickly and continue feeding or eating without problems

Our goal is to make the procedure safe, gentle, and stress-free for both your child and you as a parent.
