What Is Gummy Smile Botox?
A gummy smile occurs when the upper lip rises too high on smiling, exposing more gum than desired. Small botox injections into the lip elevator muscles gently limit this movement for a balanced smile.
The treatment is non-surgical, requires no anesthesia, and delivers natural-looking results without affecting normal facial expression.
- Targets hyperactive upper lip muscles precisely
- No incisions, no recovery period required
- Results are fully reversible over time
- Can be combined with lip filler for optimal aesthetics
