Bunny lines

“Bunny lines” refer to the fine lines and wrinkles that appear on the nose when a person scrunches or wrinkles their nose.

Gummy smile

A “gummy smile” is when an excessive amount of a person’s upper gum is visible when they smile, which can be a cosmetic concern. This issue can be addressed with Botox injections, as botulinum toxin is used to relax the muscles that elevate the upper lip, reducing gum exposure and creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.

Body contouring

Non-surgical body contouring options are on the rise, with Botox now in the mix. Beyond its well-known use for facial wrinkles, Botox is being employed for body sculpting. By injecting Botox deep into specific muscles, it can atrophy them, making the treated areas look slimmer and more defined. For instance, injecting Botox into the trapezius muscles can slim the shoulders, while the gastrocnemius muscle in the calves can be targeted for leaner leg contours. Results can last up to six months, though frequent exercise may necessitate more treatments.

DAO

Botox injections into the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) muscles can help improve the appearance of a downturned mouth or a frowning expression. By relaxing these muscles, the corners of the mouth can be lifted, creating a more positive and youthful look. This procedure is commonly used in cosmetic treatments to enhance the overall facial appearance.

Lip flip

A lip flip is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure where a small amount of Botox or a similar neuromodulator is injected into the upper lip muscles. This treatment helps relax the muscles, allowing the upper lip to roll slightly upward, creating the appearance of fuller, more lifted lips. It’s a subtle and temporary way to enhance the look of the lips without the use of dermal fillers.
