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.
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 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.
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.
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.

Patients come to Dr. Anita with wrinkles and fine lines that have appeared on their forehead, eyes neck, and areas around the lips, chin and mouth. These imperfections are due to natural aging and repeated muscle movement.
There are multiple ways to treat wrinkles and fine lines, but often this issue is addressed by injecting a prescription medicine of botulin toxin. Brand names such as Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are part of a class of chemicals called neurotoxin or neuromodulators.
These injectables work by blocking the nerve receptors that are on muscles so that the nerve no longer communicates to the muscle thereby decreasing movement and relaxing the underlying muscle.
What is a Neurotoxin injectable (Neuromodulator) and how does it work?
Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines and wrinkles. Neurotoxin’s work beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines in adults – to help them look visibly smoother.

As we age, loss of volume, bone and other underlying structures in dermal tissues is common and manifests as visible sagging, wrinkles and loss of firmness and texture.
The use of dermal fillers is a non-surgical option that immediately addresses such signs of aging for patients seeking to create fullness and structure and to fill in lines. The science and art of understanding each type of problem and choosing the best filler that will best address the specific problem area are reasons patients of Dr. Anita keep returning over the years.
There are 2 main categories of fillers recommended by Dr. Anita and both are natural substances made by the body.
Hyaluronic acid fillers work by attracting water in order to plump up or “to fill in” a problem area and effects may last from 9 months to up to 2 years. The types of HA fillers are differentiated by their density and strength or what is called the G’ or density.
Thicker, stronger G’ HA’s such as Voluma and Restylane are injected in the deeper areas of volume and structural loss while lower G’ fillers work to plump up medium to very superficial lines. A great advantage of HA fillers are that they are dissolvable with a product called hyaluronidase so any problems can be reversed immediately.
Natural dissolvable hyaluronic acids nonsurgical injectable fillers that when used correctly can softens signs of aging and give a fresh natural appearance. Most often used for treating:
Restylane and Juvederm generally last 9 months or more. Restylane LIFT is manufactured by Galderma; Juvederm Voluma XC is manufactured by Allergan.
Both these natural, dissolvable hyaluronic acids have higher denser G’ s and are therefore placed deeper into the ski to add volume and lift to such areas as the cheek and jaw to form a more youthful facial contour and structure. These volumizing HA”s are used to rebuild the foundation of the face and often other fillers are used on top of this to fill in wrinkles or folds. Voluma lasts 1 to 2 years, Restylane Lift Lasts 1 to 2 years.
Radiesse is a natural calcium-based filler that contains microscopic particles that stimulate new collagen production into the injected area while adding lift, structural support and volume. Radiesse is injected deeper into the skin and causes an immune reaction that regenerates collagen that results in a lift the structures and improvement in deep lines. Liquid facelifts often are based on this substance as it serves to improve the appearance caused by the loss of deep structural bone and tissue resulting from natural aging or injuries.
Results last up to a year or more and the number of syringes needed depends on the individual’s degree of structural loss. After about 12 months the effect of RADIESSE will subside and re-treatment will be appropriate. However, many patients find that over time less syringes are usually needed as more collagen is generated by this filler.
Areas of volume or bone loss such as: temples, jawlines, cheekbones, jowls, earlobes, nose, hands, receding chins and any depression or structural asymmetry. Facial wasting from illness or weight loss is often treated with Radiesse.
What is biostimulation?
Biostimulation is a process by which cells self-regenerate, and older skin cells are replaced by new, fresh cells. With procedures such as Radiesse, it is possible to renew crepey skin, leaving you with a smooth, natural looking visage.
