What is gummy smile Botox correction in Jaipur?

#

Gummy smile Botox is a non-surgical aesthetic procedure performed by Dr. Vishal Purohit in Jaipur to correct excessive gum display when smiling. The treatment delivers 2 to 4 micro-units of botulinum toxin into the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (LLSAN) muscles beside the nostrils. Dr. Purohit gently lowers the upper lip, revealing an ideal 1 to 2 mm of gum line.

Can gummy smile Botox cause speech problems or lip drooping?

#

Asymmetry or upper lip drooping occurs only if excessive units are injected or placed too low into the orbicularis oris, cautions Dr. Vishal Purohit in Jaipur. Dr. Purohit employs conservative micro-dosing strictly at the Yonsei anatomical landmark beside the piriform aperture. This ensures natural phonetics, clear speech, and unrestricted smiling.

How does Botox compare to surgical gingivectomy for a gummy smile?

#

Botox treats muscular hyperactivity without surgical cutting or recovery downtime, whereas gingivectomy surgically resects excess gum tissue, explains Dr. Vishal Purohit in Jaipur. If excessive gum show is caused by short clinical crowns, dental crown lengthening is indicated; if caused by dynamic lip elevation, Botox is the gold standard.

Can gummy smile Botox be combined with lip fillers?

#

Yes, combining gummy smile Botox with hyaluronic acid lip fillers is a signature smile makeover protocol performed by Dr. Vishal Purohit in Jaipur. While Botox controls hyperactive vertical lip retraction, subtle filler plumps a thin upper lip, providing fuller coverage over the gums. Dr. Purohit harmonizes both treatments for optimal smile balance.
