At Healthy Solutions Medspa, we offer a treatment to correct the “gummy smile” that is done by using Botox.
A gummy smile is when you smile, your gums show below your upper lip. This can be treated with Botox to create an even more natural, beautiful smile!
What Can Cause a Gummy Smile?
Gummy smile can be caused by a few things, including:
The way your jaw bone is developed within the gum tissue
Genetics, like small upper lips, short teeth, or excess gum tissue
A muscle in your upper lip lifting, causing more gum to show
How to treat your gummy smile with Botox
Gummy smiles are treated with BOTOX® in between your upper lip and nose. This takes the muscle in your smile and freezes it to relax your smile to not show your gums. The gummy smile correction treatment with BOTOX® is not permanent and can last three to four months until another treatment can be done.
How Many Units of Botox Would I Need?
Gummy smiles are usually treated with a small amount of BOTOX®. Only 4 to 8 units are typically needed to treat a gummy smile with Botox and the price for the treatment can range from $140-$180.
Could I enhance my gummy smile even more?
Another option to combat gummy smiles is to add filler to the lips along with BOTOX®. This creates more volume in the lips, and further enhances your lips and smile.
If you’re on the hook to plan the next girls night out but seem to be out of ideas, here’s one for you – throw a Botox Party!
That’s right you can inject fun and Botox into one fabulous night out with your girlfriends.
Botox parties are being offered more and more at medical offices and medical spas.
What are Botox parties?
A Botox party is an event for a group of five or more friends that schedule Botox procedures to be done at the same time in a medical facility while enjoying each other’s company.
Where to have a Botox Party?
We strongly recommend a medical setting to ensure a sterile and safe environment.
Typically refreshments are provided to you and your friends while you hang out, relax, and get your Botox on.
As the host of a Botox party at Healthy Solutions Med Spa, you are eligible for a significant discount or even a complimentary Botox treatment, depending on the size of your party.
All attendees receive a discounted price not offered with a regular Botox treatment booking.
At Healthy Solutions Med Spa, Botox treatments are done by Dr. Michael Luciano or a Registered Nurse.
The process involves tiny Botox injections that work by blocking nerve impulses to the injected muscles – this reduces muscle activity that causes moderate to severe lines to form around the eyes and forehead.
Botox injections rapidly lessen the look of lines and wrinkles in those areas creating a younger looking you. Botox is safe, long lasting and very affordable.
A single Botox treatment is usually done in about 20 minutes, leaving you plenty of time to chat with your girlfriends.
Within days, you will see a marked improvement in the moderate-to-severe frown lines between your brows and eyes. Lines continue to improve for up to 30 days.
Patients can expect visible results to last approximately three to four months – so you can schedule your Botox parties seasonally.
If you don’t live in the area but are planning to throw a Botox party, be sure to research the best place to get Botox in your city before you schedule one.
Read reviews about the office you are considering and confirm that Botox treatments are done by an aesthetic Doctor or Registered Nurse.
Cheers to a fun girls night out and a better looking you!
When it comes to smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, neuromodulators like Botox and Daxxify are two popular options that often get compared. While both work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles to create a more youthful appearance, there are key differences in how they’re formulated, how long they last, and their overall track record.
At Healthy Solutions Medspa, we proudly offer Botox—backed by decades of safety, consistent results, and patient trust.
In this post, we’ll explore how Botox and Daxxify compare, and why Botox remains our preferred choice.
What is Botox?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is the first treatment FDA approved to temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines look better. After having treatment, minimal downtime is necessary. You can return to your daily routine immediately after, and you may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with results lasting 3-4 months.
It was first approved by the FDA for medical use in 1989 (for eye muscle disorders), and then for cosmetic use in 2002 to treat frown lines.
Since then, it has been extensively studied in hundreds of clinical trials across both aesthetic and therapeutic applications, making it the most researched neuromodulator on the market.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is the most widely researched and studied treatment of its kind, approved for use in 95 countries.
What is Daxxify?
Daxxify, brought to market by Revance is short for daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm and is an FDA approved treatment to improve the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily blocking the release of the neurotransmitter that causes muscle movement.
What is the Cost of Botox and Daxxify?
At Healthy Solutions Medspa, Botox injections cost between $11.50 and $13.50 a unit, depending on if you are a VIP Member.
Daxxify can range from $12-$15 per unit depending on location and the practice.
How Long Does Botox and Daxxify Last?
Botox lasts around three to four months, while Daxxify is said to last around six months.
Daxxify is marketed as a longer-lasting neuromodulator—with results purportedly lasting up to six months or more—patient experiences vary, and some individuals report that it doesn’t meet these expectations.
For instance, a reviewer on RealSelf noted that their Daxxify treatment began to wear off about a month and a half after administration, which was shorter than their typical experience with Botox.
Another user from Real Self shared that their Daxxify results lasted only three months, leading them to consider returning to Botox for its reliability.
Are Botox and Daxxify Safe?
Botox has been FDA approved for over 30 years and has been deemed safe for use.
The FDA approved Daxxify in September of 2022, so it is fairly new.
There are risks to both of them, although rare, that you should do research on before having treatment and talk to your provider to make sure this treatment is right for you.
Tried and True vs New
Many people may be hesitant to try Daxxify due to the fact it is super new.
However, Botox has been around and used for aesthetic treatments since 2002 and many people all around the world would never trade Botox for something else.

Mainstream media and celebrities like JLO and the Kardashians have been showing off their contoured and defined jawlines in recent years making a snatched jawline the newest most coveted facial feature.
What to expect during a jawline treatment with Juvederm Volux?
During your treatment, Juvederm Volux is injected deep onto the bone along the jawline and chin. This dermal filler is created specifically to provide better jawline definition because it creates structural support. You may need 1 or more syringes to achieve the “snatched jawline” of your dreams, depending on what your medical provider thinks you will need during your consultation.
How Long Does Juvederm Volux Last?
You can expect a jawline treatment with Juvederm Volux to last between 12-24 months.
Is there Downtime?
You should not work out or sweat excessively for 24 hours after receiving a Juvederm Volux dermal filler treatment, and avoid laying down for at least 4 hours. This is to avoid any infections you could get from at the injection sites. You may bruise or swell, but those should go away within a few days.
What are the Side Effects?
Commonly reported side effects of Juvederm Volux include slight swelling, bruising, redness, pain, tenderness, firmness, lumps or bumps, discoloration, or itching. These side effects resolve in time, or with antibiotics or steroids.

A lip flip is a treatment that enhances the lips with Botox injections to create a fuller appearance.
How Much is a Lip Flip?
Lip flips use very little amount of Botox (between 4-8 units) and is a more affordable treatment when comparing it to lip filler. At Healthy Solutions Medspa, the lip flip can range from $55-$110.
How Long Does it Last?
Just like Botox on the face, Botox on the lips (lip flips) lasts around three to five months.
Does a lip flip hurt?
Patients have found lip flips to be almost pain-free. There is a small sting when being injected into the lip, however the pain is very well tolerable. The actual treatment time is 5 -10 minutes.
If you want fuller lips, consider Lip Filler
Patients find a lot of times they want additional volume in the lips after receiving a lip flip. We recommend thinking about adding lip filler to your lips along with the lip flip to add volume.
Post-Care
After having a lip flip, patients should avoid working out for 24 hours, due to the injection holes needing to be clean. Bruising may occur, so icing the area may relieve some of the bruising and swelling. Avoid sleeping face down.
Am I a Good Candidate for a lip flip?
If you have a thin upper lip, show a lot of your gums when you smile, or want a small change to your lips, this would be a great procedure for you.

You may know someone who had a facelift, but have you heard about something called the liquid facelift? It’s a term used for a certain non-surgical treatment that can provide the benefits of a facelift without incisions, anesthesia or any downtime. Let’s cover the basics so you know why the liquid facelift has become a popular treatment for so many people.
What is a Liquid Facelift?
A liquid facelift is a non-surgical procedure that uses dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation. These dermal fillers reduce the appearance of wrinkles and folds, leaving you looking years younger in the process. Generally Botox injections and dermal filler injections such as Juvederm or Restyalne are used for liquid facelifts.
What can you expect with a Liquid Facelift?
During a liquid facelift, dermal fillers and Botox are used to add volume, lift, contour the midface.
These dermal fillers are then used to sculpt and refine the jawline, chin, add volume to lips and reduce wrinkles from the forehead with Botox.
The liquid facelift is highly customizable and four syringes or more of dermal fillers may be needed depending on the areas of your face you want to focus on.
It’s best to get a consultation at a reputable medspa with a certified medical injector who will create a liquid face lift plan for you.
The results of a liquid facelift can last anywhere between a year or two, depending on the dermal fillers used.
If you are looking into doing a liquid facelift or searching for a provider that does lip injections, jawline contouring, or would like to reduce wrinkles from your forehead with Botox and you live in or around the Bucks County, PA area, request your free consultation at Healthy Solutions Medspa online, or give us a call at (267) 332-5567.

3 Areas Botox Injections Can Treat That Will Surprise You: Lips, Masseters and Neck.
We already know Botox is used to combat wrinkles on the face, but you might not know that Botox can treat the lips, masseters and neck areas too?
Here are three Botox treatments to help you look young and beautiful.
Lip Flip: Enhance the natural shape of your lip with Botox.
The Lip Flip is an excellent choice for those looking to achieve a more voluminous pout.
How does a Lip Flip work?
Botox injections into the orbicularis oris muscle around the mouth relax the upper lip muscles causing the lip to flip slightly upward, making the upper lip plumper and more visible.
A Lip Flip is especially good for someone who has an upper lip that disappears when they smile.
It will also cover exposed gums caused by smiling.
The rolled-out upper lip creates more volume and a beautiful smile.
Lip Flip Botox injections last three to four months and should only be performed by a highly trained and licensed Physician, Physician Assistant, or Registered Nurse.
You are a good candidate for Lip Flip if:
You are looking for a voluminous pout.
You want fuller lips without lip fillers.
Your upper lip disappears when you smile.
You have a gummy smile.
You want to enhance your natural lip shape.
MassetersBotox Treatment: Reshape your jawline with this minimally invasive treatment.
Your jawline is a prominent feature.
It can affect the overall appearance of your face.
Masseters Botox treatment can reshape and slim down your jawline.
As we age, the masseters muscles along the jawline expand.
We use the masseter muscle to chew and clench or grind our teeth.
Like any muscle, the more we use it, the bigger it gets.
Over time the masseter muscles become enlarged.
The expanded muscles can cause an oval shape jawline to become square.
For some, a wider-looking face or profound asymmetric jawline is genetic.
Regardless of the cause, a Masseter Botox treatment will define and contour the jawline.
The results is a more youthful and softer appearance.
How does a Masseters Botox treatment work?
The Botox injections help to relax the masseter muscles.
Once the muscles are in a relaxed state, they no longer need to work as hard.
After treatment, you can chew and move your jaw as usual without overworking the masseter muscles.
The decrease in pressure on the masseter muscles will prevent them from growing and allow them to reduce in size.
The slimmed-down appearance can last three to six months.
You are a good candidate for Masseters Botox treatment if you:
Have a wide or square jawline.
Grind or clench your teeth.
Have an asymmetric jaw line.
Tech Neck Wrinkles: Lines and Wrinkles that form on the neck.
Botox injections can prevent and correct lines and wrinkles on the neck.
A Botox treatment in the neck will relax the platysma muscle and thus will reduce lines and wrinkles that form on the neck.
How do people get “Tech Neck”?
Tech Neck occurs over time as we age.
Other factors that contribute to wrinkles on the neck are extreme weight loss, sun damage, excessive strain on the neck muscle, poor skincare, and genetics.
Botox injections are used to prevent Tech Neck or correct already developed fine lines and wrinkles.
A Botox treatment on the neck can correct:
Tech Neck.
Sagging neck.
Loss of collagen in the neck.
A Lip Flip, Masseters Botox treatment, and Botox neck injections are three ways to help you improve your appearance and look like your younger self.
