After Botox treatment for gummy smile will the result stay forever? As from others' feedback, it will last about 4 month. Does it need maintenance of injection? With continued use of Botox, will the results improve? How many units are needed for gummy smile treatment?

Answer: BOTOX Cosmetic Dear Brian, Botox can be used to treat the strong muscles that lift the upper lips when you smile- this will give the effect of less gum show when you smile. the average dose is 4 to 6 units. sometimes this needs to be adjusted to achieve the desired results. Botox generally lasts 3 to 4 months and can be repeated or stopped without any problems. With Warm Regards, Trevor M Born MD

Answer: Botox lasts 3-4 months for gummy smiles Botox sure makes a big difference when you have a gummy smile but only lasts 3-4 months at a cost of $350 each time. Dysport might be worth a try since it may last longer by about a month at the same price.
