How Does Botox for Gummy Smile Work?

A gummy smile occurs when the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (LLSAN) muscle lifts the upper lip too high. When Botox is injected into this muscle, it relaxes → gum exposure is reduced → nasolabial folds soften → the smile looks balanced while natural expression is maintained.
