A lip flip is a cosmetic treatment where small amounts of Botox are injected into the muscles around the upper lip, causing the lip to curl slightly outward. This gives the appearance of a fuller, more defined lip without adding extra volume, unlike fillers.
How does it work?
Tiny amounts of Botox relax the muscle (orbicularis oris) above the lip.
The upper lip “flips” outward a little, creating a naturally fuller look.
Lip flip vs. lip fillers:
Lip flip = no added volume, just muscle relaxation
Lip filler = adds volume with hyaluronic acid for a plumper lip
Benefits of a lip flip:
Subtle, natural-looking result
Quick treatment with minimal downtime
Can improve the look of a “gummy smile”
No prolonged swelling as with fillers
Important to know:
The effects usually last 2 to 3 months. Always choose an experienced practitioner with thorough knowledge of facial anatomy.
