If I get botox in my lip, can it mess up my smile?

Hello and thanks for your question. If performed by an untrained injector yes both botox and filler can cause issues. Always go to a qualified and experienced practitioner for any injectable treatment, best wishes

Hi,Thank you for your question.It's difficult to say without more information about where the botox is being injected (e.g. gummy smile vs. lip flip). Botox does result in muscle relaxation so theoretically, depending on the area treated, there might be a "stuck" feeling. Typically, when done properly, Botox should look natural.Hope this helps. Make sure to consult with an experienced, board-certified provider.

I appreciate your question. Botox is a very effective treatment for a gummy smile when it is administered by an experienced, board-certified dermatologist. To ensure a natural result, your doctor must be very precise in terms of both needle placement and dosing amount. If the dose of Botox is too high, then your smile can cover your teeth and it will look unnatural. If you select a qualified physician who is well-trained in Botox techniques, you should see a very good result.
