If you feel like your upper gums show more than you'd like when you smile, you're not being too picky—it’s called a "gummy smile," and for many people, it can feel distracting or cause self-consciousness, especially in photos. Often caused by overactive muscles that lift the upper lip too high, a gummy smile isn’t harmful—but it can take a toll on your confidence. You might find yourself holding back your smile, covering your mouth, or just wishing your grin looked more balanced. The good news? A subtle tweak can make a major difference.
At Laser Center, we specialize in subtle, skillful neurotoxin treatments that enhance—not change—your natural expression. By precisely placing Botox® or Dysport® in the muscle responsible for lifting the upper lip, we can soften how high it rises when you smile—reducing gum exposure without affecting your ability to speak or express emotion. Our experienced injectors have deep knowledge of facial anatomy and over 20 years of trusted aesthetic experience, so your results always feel natural and confident—not frozen or forced.
