Gummy Smile

Enhance your smile’s balance with precision and artistry.
Reveal a Confident, Natural Smile
A gummy smile—when too much gum tissue shows when you smile—can make some people feel self-conscious even though it’s completely natural. At Beyond Skin Aesthetics in Columbus and Gahanna, we use advanced injectable techniques to relax the upper lip muscles, reducing excessive gum exposure and restoring natural harmony to your smile. The result? A beautifully balanced, confident look that enhances your natural beauty.

Personalized Treatments for a Softer, Balanced Smile
Our expert providers use precise Botox® or Dysport® injections to gently relax the muscles that lift the upper lip too high when you smile. This simple, non-surgical treatment takes only minutes and delivers noticeable yet natural results. For patients seeking more lasting improvement, we may recommend combining neuromodulators with dermal fillers or other aesthetic enhancements to improve lip shape and symmetry.

Stubborn fat and skin laxity in the midsection can be difficult to address. Beyond Skin Aesthetics reshapes and tones for smoother, refined contours.

Loose or uneven skin on the upper arms can affect confidence. Beyond Skin Aesthetics firms and smooths for youthful, defined tone.

Ears can lose firmness or develop stretched lobes with age or heavy jewelry. Beyond Skin Aesthetics provides subtle rejuvenation to restore proportion and smoothness.

Healthy hair begins with a nourished scalp. Beyond Skin Aesthetics offers restorative treatments that encourage growth, improve circulation, and strengthen hair from root to tip.

The neck and décolleté often show early signs of aging through sagging, lines, and sun exposure. Beyond Skin Aesthetics rejuvenates these delicate areas for smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
A gummy smile occurs when the upper lip lifts too high while smiling, exposing more gum tissue than desired. It can be caused by hyperactive lip muscles, genetics, short upper lip length, or excessive gum tissue.
Botox® relaxes the overactive muscles that elevate the upper lip, allowing it to rest slightly lower when you smile. This creates a more balanced, natural smile while maintaining your normal facial expressions. The treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and requires no downtime.
Results from Botox® typically last 3–4 months. With regular maintenance, the muscles may become trained to relax over time, allowing for longer-lasting improvement.
No. When performed by experienced injectors like those at Beyond Skin Aesthetics, treatment results are subtle and natural. We use precise dosing to maintain your full range of facial movement while minimizing gum exposure.
There’s no downtime. You can return to work or daily activities immediately after your appointment. Mild swelling or redness may occur briefly but typically resolves within a few hours.
Yes. Depending on the cause, some patients may benefit from complementary treatments such as dermal fillers to enhance lip shape, laser gum contouring, or dental procedures for structural balance. During your consultation, we’ll recommend the best options for your specific needs.
