Botox Applications
Gummy Smile
A precise few-point treatment that adjusts proportion, not your smile.
Overview
When the upper lip lifts too far while smiling, the gums appear more prominent. The most common cause is overactivity of the lip elevator muscles.
Micro doses gently reduce the strength of these muscles; the lip rises a few millimetres more evenly and the smile regains natural proportion.
Who is it for?
- Those who feel their gums show noticeably when smiling
- Those who hold back their smile
- Those with a thin or short upper lip
- Those seeking a reversible solution without surgery
