What Is a Lip Flip?
A lip flip is a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting BOTOX® into specific areas around your upper lip. The main goal is to relax the muscles, which allows the lip to roll slightly outward. This results in a fuller appearance without adding volume like traditional lip fillers.
How Does It Work?
During the procedure, a qualified professional will use a fine needle to inject BOTOX® into the muscles above your upper lip. This takes only a few minutes and typically requires no downtime.
You can expect to see results almost immediately, with the full effect appearing within a few days.
What Are the Benefits?
There are several benefits to choosing a lip flip:
- Natural-Looking Results: The treatment provides a subtle enhancement that looks natural, making it perfect for those who want a slight change without dramatic alterations.
- Quick Procedure: A lip flip usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.
- Minimal Discomfort: Most patients report only mild discomfort during the injection, and any swelling or bruising is typically minimal and resolves quickly.
- Long-Lasting Effects: While results vary, many people enjoy the effects for up to three months before needing a touch-up.
Is a Lip Flip Right for You?
If you are considering a lip flip, it is essential to consult with a qualified professional to discuss your goals and expectations.
This procedure is ideal for those looking to enhance their smile without the commitment of fillers. It is also suitable for most skin types, but a personalized assessment will ensure it is the right choice for you.
