Lip Repositioning
Fast facts
This procedure addresses a gummy smile caused by either a short or hypermobile upper lip that exposes too much gum when you smile. It is a simple and safe procedure that restricts the pull of the “elevator” muscles in your upper lip. It doesn’t result in any external scarring given that all the work is done on your inner lip.
Lip repositioning surgery corrects a gummy smile by limiting the elevator pull muscles, which are responsible for lifting the upper lip.
The procedure restricts how high the upper lip can rise when you smile, keeping it closer to your teeth and minimizing the amount of visible gum.
