LipFix: Gummy Smile
Our LipFix: Gummy Smile is designed to make you feel more confident with your smile. A gummy smile occurs when gums are seen above your teeth. With Botox, we treat the upper lip so that the gums aren't revealed when you smile. Here are benefits of the treatment:
- No more gums when you smile
- May define borders and lip shape
- Decreased wrinkles around the mouth
- Soften lip lines for a perfect smile
Note: This treatment is available at all our locations. Best complemented with a LipFix: Filler. A consultation is required before this treatment is scheduled.

A consultation is required to determine the exact number of treatment sessions. This purchase cannot be used for any other area.
How is Gummy Smile Treated?
Gummy Smile is treated by injecting Botox in the upper lips to reduce mobility and elevation.
When does Gummy Smile Occur?
Gummy Smiles can occur when there is larger gum tissue seen than usual when they smile.
The procedure involves injecting small units of Botox in the upper lip to reduce the appearance of Gummy Smile.
Botox works by paralyzing the hyperactive muscles in the upper lip, reducing its elevation and ultimately reducing the gummy smile.
It reduces the appearance of gums and gives you the confidence to flaunt your perfect smile!

PRE TREATMENT CARE
Inform your BeautyFix provider if you've received any type of botulinum toxin injections within the past 4 months, as well as if you take pain relievers, blood thinners, aspirin, anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS), steroids, muscle relaxants, sleeping aids or allergy medications. There are two forms of botulinum neurotoxin: Botulinum neurotoxin type A (trade names Botox®, Dysport, Xeomin and DAXXIFY™) and botulinum neurotoxin type B (trade names Myobloc and Neurobloc). BeautyFix offers type A neurotoxins.

POST TREATMENT CARE
Remain in an upright position for 4 hours. Do not lie flat or rub/scrub the area for 4 hours after injections. No massaging of the treated area for 1-3 hours - this can cause the toxin to migrate to a different area. Emote the treated area (wrinkle the forehead, smile, frown, etc.) every so often for 1-3 hours after treatment - this will help with the uptake of the toxin. Do not exercise for 24 hours post-treatment. Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen for 24 hours - this includes Advil, Motrin, Aleve, Naproxen, and/or Bayer Baby Aspirin. You may take Tylenol for any headaches or discomfort. Mild bruising can sometimes be seen after the procedure. Arnica is a homeopathic treatment that has great results on post-treatment bruising and discomfort. Arnica capsules are available for sale at all BeautyFix clinics. 212.366.4787 | www.beautyfixmedspa.com

I had a great experience at the westchester location. Everyone was very nice and took the time to explain everything to me as this was my first time. Very happy with the results!

Wish I could upload a before photo so you could really see how significant the difference is. I have little baby teeth and when I smile all you see is gum. This really cut down on that significantly. Will be doing this again
