A Gummy Smile — when a lot of gum is visible when you smile — is something many people find bothersome. The cause is often an overactive muscle that pulls the upper lip too high when smiling. Through targeted treatment, this muscle is relaxed, the upper lip lifts less, and the smile appears more harmonious.

Treatment Process

1

Analysis: I assess your smile and identify the overactive muscles.

2

Photo: We take a before photo for comparison.

3

Marking: The injection points are precisely marked.

4

Treatment: A few small injections beside the nostrils.

5

Follow-up: After 2 weeks, we check the result.

Combination Treatment

Gummy Smile correction is often combined with a Lip Flip. The upper lip lowers slightly, rolls outward, and covers more gum — a double effect for a more harmonious smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes a Gummy Smile?

The most common cause is an overactive muscle (levator labii superioris) that pulls the upper lip too high when smiling. Other causes can be gum overgrowth or jaw position.

Can I still smile normally afterwards?

Yes, absolutely! The goal is to reduce excessive movement, not to block the smile. You will continue to smile naturally and expressively.

Is the treatment permanent?

No, the effect lasts about 3-4 months. This is also an advantage — you can test whether you like the result before committing to regular treatments.

Are there other ways to treat a Gummy Smile?

Yes, for some patients a gum correction by a dentist or lip filler may be more suitable. During the consultation, we discuss which option is best for you.

Can I combine the treatment with lips?

Yes, I often combine Gummy Smile correction with a Lip Flip or lip filler. A fuller upper lip also covers more gum.

How much does Gummy Smile correction cost?

The treatment starts from 150 €. Package prices are available when combined with a Lip Flip.
