Lip Flip

A lip flip is an injectable treatment that uses a neuromodulator such as BOTOX® or Dysport® to slightly curl the upper lip upward, creating a fuller appearance without adding volume. To achieve this, a small amount of BOTOX, Dysport, or other neuromodulator — typically around four to six units — is injected near the corners and at the center of the upper lip. This relaxes the targeted muscles in this area, allowing for a subtle upward flip of the upper lip.

It should only take a few minutes for your provider to perform your lip flip and there is no downtime after your appointment. However, it is best to skip strenuous exercise for the rest of the day and avoid placing unnecessary pressure on your lips for the next few days.

It can take a few days for your lip flip results to become visible and up to two weeks to see your final outcome.

Who Is a Lip Flip Best For?

A lip flip is best for anyone looking for a subtly fuller lip while maintaining a very natural appearance. A lip flip is also an excellent option for anyone who wants to improve a “gummy smile” so that more of your upper lip is visible when you smile. Lip flips can also address slight lip asymmetry.

However, if you would like a more dramatic boost of volume or lip reshaping, lip fillers or a combination lip flip with fillers may be the best option for you.

Lip Flip Benefits and Drawbacks

Lip flips can offer a number of unique benefits, though they are not necessarily the right choice for everyone. Take a look at some of the pros and cons of lip flips to help you decide.

Pros of Lip Flips

Lip flips can achieve subtle, natural-looking changes to your lips without adding volume.

Lip flips can treat a gummy smile, a thin upper lip, and asymmetrical lips while creating a fuller appearance.

Fine lines around the mouth can be treated at the same time as your lip flip.

Lip flips tend to cost less than lip fillers, since such a small amount of product is used.

Cons of Lip Flips

Lip flips won’t add volume to your lips and won’t change your bottom lip.

Lip flips can’t be reversed, unlike hyaluronic acid lip fillers, which can be dissolved.

Lip flips generally do not last as long as lip fillers.
