How Does Gummy Smile Treatment Work?
A gummy smile occurs when excess gum tissue is visible above your teeth when you smile. At Zeugma Medspa, we use a small amount of Botox (typically 2-4 units) injected into the muscle that elevates your upper lip. This relaxes the muscle slightly, reducing how much gum shows when you smile.
The treatment takes just minutes, results appear within a few days, and effects last 3-4 months. It is one of our most popular and affordable treatments. Book your consultation.

Is Gummy Smile Treatment Right for You?
It suits people whose upper lip lifts high when they smile, showing more gum than they would like. It is not the right fix if the cause is dental, such as tooth size or gum overgrowth, and in that case your dentist is the best first stop. At your consultation, your provider will watch how you smile and talk, then explain whether a small dose of wrinkle relaxer can help.
Treatment is quick, and most people return to their day right away. Botox is $13 per unit before discounts, and gummy smile treatment usually uses a small number of units. Members save on wrinkle relaxers with a membership.
