Botox for a gummy smile is a treatment that relaxes the muscles responsible for raising the upper lip too high when smiling, reducing the appearance of excessive gum tissue. With this treatment, you can look forward to a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. The procedure is quick, causes minimal discomfort, and results are usually visible within a few days. The effects last about three to four months, allowing you to enjoy a confident smile without worrying about exposure to your gums.
Botox for a gummy smile works by targeting the muscles that cause the upper lip to lift excessively when you smile. Small amounts of Botox are injected into the muscles around the upper lip, temporarily relaxing them. This relaxation reduces the upward pull on the lip, allowing it to cover more of your gums when you smile. The procedure is quick, typically taking about 10-15 minutes, and involves minimal discomfort. Results typically become noticeable within a few days.
At Laserbody M.D., we offer customized Botox injections for gummy smiles to meet the unique needs of men and women. Men typically require a higher dosage due to stronger facial muscles and often seek a subtle reduction in gum exposure for a natural appearance. At the same time, women may prefer a more noticeable reduction to achieve a balanced and attractive smile. Our experienced professionals customize each treatment to achieve natural-looking results, ensuring that both men and women enjoy a balanced, confident smile.
The amount of Botox needed to treat a gummy smile varies depending on the individual’s muscle structure and the extent of gum damage. Small doses of 2 to 5 units per side of the upper lip are typically sufficient to achieve the desired results.
During a consultation at Laserbody M.D. Our trained technicians will assess your needs and determine the exact dosage needed.

Although the effects of Botox are not permanent, they usually last between three and four months. Regular treatments will help maintain the desired appearance over time.
Botox is generally well tolerated with a low risk of side effects. Common side effects, such as slight swelling or bruising at the injection site, are usually temporary and go away quickly.

The injection process takes about 10-15 minutes. Using a thin needle, your doctor will inject a small amount of Botox into the muscles that lift your upper lip. The number and location of injections will depend on your specific needs.
After injections, do not touch or massage the area for 24 hours. Stay upright for four hours, avoid strenuous activity, and heat for 24 hours. Results usually appear within a few days, with full effects within a week.
