OVERVIEW
A gummy smile, where excessive gum tissue is visible when smiling, can make some people feel self-conscious about their appearance. This is often caused by overactive upper lip elevator muscles, such as the levator labii superioris. Botox for a gummy smile is a simple, non-surgical solution that relaxes these muscles, allowing the upper lip to lower slightly when you smile. The result is a more balanced, natural-looking smile that enhances your facial harmony without changing your unique expression.

BOOKING
Once your booking is confirmed, we’ll provide you with a consultation form to assess your suitability for gummy smile treatment. Your safety and well-being are always our top priority, and we will not proceed with any treatment if we believe it may not be suitable or could compromise your health in any way.
CONSULTATION
At NTK Aesthetics, every treatment starts with a thorough consultation. We’ll assess your smile dynamics and lip movement to determine if Botox is the right solution for reducing a gummy smile. We'll also go over your medical history, understand your aesthetic goals, and answer any questions you may have. This helps us create a personalised treatment plan that ensures natural, confident results.
THE TREATMENT
The procedure is quick and straightforward. After cleansing the area, small amounts of Botox are carefully injected into the muscles responsible for elevating the upper lip. The treatment typically takes around 10–15 minutes, is well-tolerated, and requires no downtime. You’ll start to see results within 3–5 days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. The upper lip rests in a lower, more natural position when you smile, reducing gum exposure and enhancing your overall smile aesthetics.
SAFETY DURING THE TREATMENT
Botox for a gummy smile is safe and effective when carried out by experienced professionals, such as the team at NTK Aesthetics. We use precise techniques and minimal doses to ensure natural-looking results while avoiding any impact on speech or lip function. Side effects are rare and may include slight redness or tenderness at the injection site. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we take every step to ensure a professional, reassuring experience throughout your visit.
