Hi last time we did a lip flip I got this horrible line above my lip. This has happened to me two times where we have placed the lip flip in different spots, but along my lip line. Where should we place the Botox instead of along my lip to avoid the second smile line, and get rid of my gummy smile? Should we place The Botox under my nose are in my Yonsei spots instead?
I've seen two procedures advertised for correcting a short upper lip and gummy smile. A lip flip where botox is injected at four points, two on the left and two on the right at the lateral vermillion border. And gummy smile botox with injections on either side of the nose. Is one placement better than the other? Do they achieve different things?
The right side of my upper lip tugs down a lot when I speak and smile. Im wondering what procedure would help to straighten it out, I dont think lip fillers will give me the result I want. Could DOA botox be the best option? Or something else entirely? It feels muscle related
I'm on day 5 after having my upper lip injected for a gummy smile. 6 units total. I have ZERO weird or uncomfortable sensation that I was told I would definitely have. It appears, from pictures, that my upper lip has lowered some. Does it just take longer to kick in around the mouth? Basically, because I have no weird sensation, I'm feeling like this didn't work and am left wondering, should I have them do just a tiny bit more? Obviously I'll wait the full two weeks to see final results.
i have had some botox to relax the muscle so it appears less gummy but would like a more prodomanent top lip is there a way of pushing it down to make it look thicker ? or would something else work?
My smile has been bothering me because of two reasons: the first one being that it looks narrow and the second is that it is a little on the gummy side. I suspect I might have slight vertical excess growth of my maxilla. From what I understand after looking it up, fixing gummy smiles permanently requires surgery. I would rather invest in something that lasts rather than pay to get upper lip botox over and over.
Hello 23f Had previous braces 4 teeth removed for overbite, getting braces again to correct midline. Have slight anterior molar cross bite left side, would upper palette expander help top midline correction and then rubber bands for bottom? I have to get botox for face creases especially left side gummy smile muscles area but to completely fix gummy smile, should I use botox, tads or gum contouring as my teeth are short (But Im scared of teeth becoming too big, if its suitable I will) thankyou
