Permanent gummy smile botox-esque procedure? Please help!

September 28, 2016
Asked By:123kittypaw in Killeen, TX

Apologies for asking this before, but I thought I'd reword it to explain what I actually meant more accurately. I am interested in the effects of botox for 'gummy smile', but my issue is not my gums showing; rather, it's the way my upper lip moves up so much and how that affects my nose. It's a harsh look. Anyway, is there a permanent procedure that would mimic the effects that botox would have achieved for 'gummy smile'?
