The proposed solutions
Botox for a gummy smile
A gummy smile may be caused by overactive muscles that lift the upper lip.
Small injections of Botox help relax these muscles so that the lip doesn't lift as high when you smile.
The result is gradual, subtle, and natural, without altering facial expressions.
Botox for the masseter muscles
In cases of bruxism or severe jaw tension, Botox can be injected into the masseter muscles.
It helps reduce muscle tension, relieve stress, and, in some cases, gradually slim the lower face when the masseter muscles are very developed.
A personalized assessment
Every smile and every jaw is different. During the consultation, the doctor will assess your smile, lip mobility, masseter muscle strength, and overall facial balance.
The goal is to provide a precise treatment tailored to your anatomy, resulting in a harmonious, comfortable, and natural look.
