What is Gummy Smile Botox?
Gummy Smile Botox is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of excessive gum exposure when smiling. This condition, known as a gummy smile, can be caused by hyperactive upper lip muscles. The procedure involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into these muscles, temporarily relaxing them. This results in a more balanced smile with less gum showing. The treatment is quick, typically taking about 10-15 minutes. It offers natural-looking results that last several months, making it a popular choice for those seeking a subtle improvement in their smile.

How Does Gummy Smile Botox Treatment Work?
Gummy Smile Botox treatment targets the muscles responsible for lifting the upper lip excessively when smiling. During the procedure, a qualified aesthetic practitioner injects botulinum toxin into specific points of the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle. The botulinum toxin temporarily blocks nerve signals to this muscle, preventing it from contracting too much. This relaxation lowers the upper lip, reducing gum exposure and creating a more balanced smile. The treatment is quick, generally taking 10-15 minutes, with minimal discomfort. Results typically appear within a few days and last several months, providing a more aesthetically pleasing smile.
Who Can Have Gummy Smile Botox?
Gummy Smile Botox is suitable for adults looking to reduce the appearance of excessive gum exposure when they smile. It is ideal for individuals with hyperactive upper lip muscles or those seeking a more balanced and confident smile. Candidates should have good overall health and realistic expectations about the treatment's outcomes. Both men and women can benefit from this procedure. However, pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with certain neuromuscular disorders, or those allergic to botulinum toxin should avoid Botox treatments. Consulting with a qualified aesthetic practitioner ensures the treatment's safety and effectiveness.
