What Is a Lip Flip?

During a Lip Flip, small amounts of Botox are injected into your upper lip. Botox is an injectable neuromodulator treatment composed of botulinum toxin type A. It blocks the nerve signals to the muscles that control the upper lip, allowing it to relax. This shows more of the inner lip, creating more volume for the upper lip.

The Consultation

During a Botox Lip Flip consultation, you will discuss your aesthetic goals with us. We will examine your lips, and photos may be taken for before-and-after purposes. Your medical history will also be evaluated, including current medications and supplements, allergies, and pre-existing conditions.

Next, we will go over the details of the treatment, from preparation to aftercare. You are encouraged to ask questions at any time during your consultation.

What to Expect During The Treatment Session

A Lip Flip session is quick and convenient, typically lasting only 10–20 minutes. A numbing cream or local anesthetic may be used for comfort. The Botox is then injected into specific areas of your upper lip.

Lip Flip Aftercare

There’s no downtime or recovery time required after a Botox Lip Flip. Patients can go back to their everyday activities immediately. A degree of swelling or numbness may be present for a short time.

It’s best to avoid putting pressure on your lips in the first few days after your session since this can lead to the unwanted spreading of the product. Do not rub your lips, and make sure to sleep on your back. Smoking should also be avoided since it can lead to infection.

Initial results are often visible within 3-7 days of treatment, with benefits lasting 2 to 3 months. Maintenance treatments are recommended to maintain your desired look.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does a Lip Flip Cost?

The price of a lip flip treatment depends on factors such as the number of Botox units needed and the patient’s lip enhancement goals.Our experienced providers will guide you and create a customized treatment plan based on your goals and your budget.

How Does a Lip Flip Differ From Lip Fillers?

A lip flip is a cosmetic procedure that can give you the appearance of fuller lips, particularly in the upper lip, without actually adding volume. This differs from lip fillers, which plump your lips with substances like hyaluronic acid. Instead, a lip flip uses Botox injections near the edges of your upper lip. This relaxes the muscles there, causing them to curl slightly outward. This outward curl creates the illusion of fuller lips, offering a more subtle enhancement compared to lip fillers.

What Type of Product Is Used for a Lip Flip?

The primary product used in a lip flip is Botox, a well-known brand of botulinum toxin. This neuromodulator temporarily relaxes muscles and is effective for achieving natural results.

What Are the Potential Side Effects of a Lip Flip?

A lip flip treatment is generally safe but can include side effects such as bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site. It may also cause asymmetry or difficulties in moving the lips, which are temporary and should go away in one to two days.

Side effects from a lip flip treatment are rare and preventable with proper preparation and aftercare.

How Long Do the Results of a Lip Flip Last?

The results of a Botox lip flip can last for at least eight weeks. For some patients, results can last up to 12 weeks. The duration can vary based on the patient’s muscle activity and how their body metabolizes the Botox.

Is a Lip Flip Painful?

The lip flip treatment involves minimal pain. The discomfort associated with the lip flip injection is usually brief and can be improved with a topical numbing cream applied before the procedure.

What Should I Do to Prepare for a Lip Flip?

To prepare for a lip flip, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements such as aspirin and fish oil for a few days before the procedure to reduce the risk of bruising.
