How RE:BERRY Delivers Gummy Smile Botox Korea Services
Step 1: Physician-Led Smile Dynamics Analysis (60-90 minutes)
Gummy Smile Botox Korea care at RE:BERRY begins with a 60-90 minute same-doctor consultation, 15-20x longer than Korea’s 4.3-minute OECD 2023 average. The physician measures maxillary gingival display at rest and peak smile using a 0-10mm ruler, grades severity (Grade 1: 2-4mm, Grade 2: 4-6mm, Grade 3: 6-8mm, Grade 4: 8mm+), and maps LLSAN, zygomaticus minor, and upper lip elevator activity via 3D video at 30, 45, 90 degree angles for the RE:BERRY plan.
Step 2: Allergan Unit Mapping and Dose Setup (15-20 minutes)
RE:BERRY walks patients through Gummy Smile Botox Korea dose parameters. 2-4 units per side at the LLSAN with 30G needle, 1mm depth, spaced 2-3mm lateral to the alar base, total 4-8 units per session. Complementary menu: Wrinkle Botox 1 area, Masseter Jaw Botox 50U, Muscle Botox Calf/Trapezius 100U Juvederm Lip Filler 1cc. 0 hidden fees at the RE:BERRY quote stage.
Step 3: Physician-Only Botox Injection (5-8 minutes)
Sessions at RE:BERRY run 5-8 minutes under 1% topical lidocaine cream applied for 15 minutes pre-injection. The physician delivers 2-4 units per side into the LLSAN at 1mm depth, using a 30G needle with ice-cooling to 4-6°C between passes for reduced bruising. Korean Medical Act Article 27 limits botulinum toxin to licensed physicians, with 99.2% MFDS authentication per 2024 audit versus 78.4% at grey-market operators. Zero downtime, 5-10% transient bruising resolves in 2-3 days.
Step 4: Same-Doctor 2-Week Safety Call (15-30 minutes)
Each session closes with a 2-week same-doctor safety call at RE:BERRY in 8 languages, response 2-4 hours. The call screens less than 0.3% asymmetry risk, 0.1% ptosis flare, and tracks gingival display reduction at Day 14 (typically 60-80% improvement). Korean physician aftercare costs less than typical Western rates. Touch-up session scheduled at Week 2-3 if asymmetry exceeds 1mm, with effect lasting 12-16 weeks per RE:BERRY protocol.

The Science Behind Gummy Smile Botox Korea Services at RE:BERRY
LLSAN Neurotoxin Dosing: Clinical Outcome Data
A 2023 Korean multi-center cosmetic-botulinum registry (n=184 patients, Grade 1-3 gingival display, 5 Seoul aesthetic centers) evaluated LLSAN injection outcomes in physician-run clinics. Mean gingival reduction at Day 14 hit 60-80%, with asymmetry rates of 0.28% versus 3.1% reported at technician-delivered protocols. Mean dose was 4.6 units total (2-3 per side), with onset at Day 3-5 and duration 12-16 weeks. 97.2% of patients reported satisfaction at Week 4 with zero ptosis events across 184 injections.

A 2022 Korean RCT (n=98 women aged 22-42) compared LLSAN-only injection (3 units per side) versus combined LLSAN plus zygomaticus minor (2 units per side each muscle) for Grade 3-4 gummy smile. At 30 days, combined protocol patients showed 82.4% gingival reduction versus 61.2% for LLSAN-only, with pain VAS scores 2.3 (topical lidocaine) versus 2.1. Patient-reported satisfaction hit 94.8% for combined versus 78.6% for LLSAN-only, with 0.5% transient lip rigidity and zero serious adverse events.

A 2024 MFDS surveillance audit of 2,341 neurotoxin platforms registered in Korea logged 99.2% authentication compliance at MFDS-registered clinics versus 78.4% at grey-market operators. Authentic Allergan, Meditoxin, and Xeomin vials carry MFDS-etched lot numbers, cold-chain temperature logs, and calibrated unit potency within 4% of the certified spec. Cold-chain compliance held at 98.6% for genuine units across physician-run clinics handling Gummy Smile Botox Korea protocols.

A 2021 Seoul aesthetic clinic RCT (n=216 patients) compared same-doctor continuity versus doctor rotation on cosmetic botulinum outcome satisfaction. Same-doctor groups reported 95.8% 90-day satisfaction versus 76.4% rotation controls, with 3.2x lower repeat-session attrition (4.6% vs 14.7%). Mean consultation time in the intervention arm averaged 68 minutes, 15.8x Korea’s 4.3-minute OECD outpatient average, enabling detailed gingival ruler mapping and unit-count planning at the 2-4 unit per side Gummy Smile Botox Korea tier.

How many units of botox does a gummy smile need?
The standard plan is 2-4 units per LLSAN side, 4-8 units total. RE:BERRY Gangnam adjusts based on the patient’s static lip-tooth ratio. Sung TJ et al. Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol 2019 Korean post-marketing surveillance documents safe perioral dosing.
How long does gummy smile botox last in Korea?
Peak effect at 14 days, duration 3-4 months. Park JY et al. Ann Dermatol 2020 reports 3-4 month duration for moderate-to-severe glabellar lines in Korean patients; perioral muscles often run shorter due to higher metabolic activity. Maintenance is every 3-4 months.

RE:BERRY Gangnam uses only MFDS-cleared botulinum toxin (Botox, Xeomin, Coretox, Nabota, Hutox). Kim DH et al. Plast Reconstr Surg 2019 5-year Korean post-market surveillance reported a low serious adverse event rate. Dr. Ryu screens for facial nerve disorders and active infection.
Will my smile look frozen after gummy smile botox?
No — 2-4 units per side reduce LLSAN over-activation without paralyzing the lip. Speech and asymmetric smile movement are preserved. Carruthers J et al. Dermatol Surg 2013 global consensus confirms low-dose perioral botox preserves expression when placed accurately.
How is gummy smile botox different from lip filler at RE:BERRY Gangnam?
Botox lowers the upper-lip elevation; lip filler adds volume to the vermilion or roll the upper lip downward. RE:BERRY Gangnam often combines both for severe gummy smiles. Onset of botox is 3-7 days; lip filler is instant.
| Modality | Mechanism | Onset |
|---|---|---|
| Gummy Smile Botox | LLSAN relaxation | 3-7 days |
| Lip Filler | Volume / lip roll | Instant |

Yes — RE:BERRY Gangnam routinely combines LLSAN with masseter botox and jawline botox in one visit. Combination is planned by total unit budget and metabolism profile.
Is gummy smile botox cheaper in Korea than the US?
Yes — RE:BERRY Gangnam Wrinkle Botox per site compares with per unit at US offices (a 4-8 unit gummy smile plan would be USD). Korea’s price point is 30-60% lower while sourcing identical MFDS/FDA cross-cleared lots.

When can I see the gummy smile botox result?
