Lip Flip
A lip flip is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by creating a fuller, more pronounced look. It involves the use of botulinum toxin (commonly known by the brand name Botox) to achieve a subtle yet noticeable enhancement without the need for dermal fillers.
A lip flip can be an effective way to enhance the appearance of the upper lip and achieve a fuller, more defined look with minimal downtime and a natural result.
A lip flip provides a subtle enhancement and is not a substitute for lip fillers if you are looking for more significant volume. It’s ideal for those who want a natural-looking improvement in lip shape.
Target Area: The procedure involves injecting a small amount of botulinum toxin into the muscles of the upper lip, specifically the orbicularis oris muscle, which is responsible for lip movement.
Relaxation Effect: The toxin relaxes the muscle, causing the upper lip to roll outward and slightly upward. This results in a subtle flip of the lip, giving it a fuller appearance.
Lip Enhancement: By relaxing the muscle, the procedure helps to evert (turn outward) the edge of the upper lip. This can make the lip appear fuller and create a more defined lip line.
Natural Look: Unlike lip fillers, which add volume directly, a lip flip creates a more natural-looking enhancement by simply adjusting the lip’s position.
Injection: The procedure typically involves a few small injections into the upper lip area. The injections are quick and usually cause minimal discomfort.
Duration: The entire procedure takes about 10-15 minutes and does not require downtime. You can return to your normal activities immediately.
Common side effects are mild and may include redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. Rare side effects might include temporary asymmetry or a minor droop in the corners of the mouth, but these generally resolve on their own.
Natural Enhancement: Provides a subtle, natural-looking enhancement to the upper lip without adding volume.
Minimal Invasiveness: Less invasive compared to lip fillers and does not involve the use of needles to inject filler into the lip tissue.
Quick Procedure: The procedure is quick, with minimal downtime, making it convenient for those with busy schedules.
