THE RESULTS
*Results will vary from patient to patient.
**All photos are of patients from Cosmos Clinic, and all ‘after’ images are taken on average 6 weeks post treatment.
THE TREATMENT
Gum visibility when smiling may be managed using muscle relaxant injections. This treatment works by targeting the muscles responsible for excessive upper lip elevation, potentially reducing gum exposure.
Muscle relaxant injections temporarily reduce the activity of the upper lip muscles, allowing the lip to rest in a more neutral position. The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, often completed in just 10 minutes. A single injection is administered into the soft tissue and muscle above the upper lip.
The average cost ranges from $120 to $150. For a more tailored assessment and pricing, we recommend booking a consultation at your nearest Cosmos Clinic location.
FROM
$120.
Locations available
There are several causes, but one of the most common can be over-active muscles controlling the upper lip.
Results will take effect at around 2 weeks and in most cases last 3 to 4 months.
Injectable muscle relaxants are considered safe when administered by a medical professional. There have been no permanent side effects reported for this treatment. Muscle telaxing injections have been used for over 20 years in both cosmetic and therapeutic treatments without any reported long term issue. They are also commonly used in much higher dosages to treat children with cerebral palsy to reduce muscle spasms, amblyopia and excessive sweating.
