Gummy smile with Botox®
Balancing a high smile line for a confident look at Best of You Aesthetics in Bonn

What is a gummy smile?
If too much gum shows when you smile, often the upper lip muscles are pulling strongly upward. Botox® can relax that pull so less gum shows—while keeping your smile natural.
How it works
Small doses are placed to moderate the muscles that elevate the upper lip. Less upward pull means a more balanced smile. Full effect in about 7–14 days.
