LIP FLIP
The lip flip is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses neuromodulators such as Botox to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by temporarily relaxing the muscles around it, causing the lip to roll or “flip” slightly upward.

WHAT IS IT?
The lip flip involves injecting small doses of a neuromodulator (such as Botox®) into the orbicularis oris muscle, just above the upper lip. By temporarily relaxing the muscles around the lip, the upper lip gently lifts or “flips” upward. This subtle change gives the upper lip a fuller, more defined look and helps soften vertical lines around the mouth.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The neuromodulator relaxes the muscle, allowing the upper lip to roll slightly outward.
The lip flip creates the illusion of added volume without increasing lip size and can also reduce the appearance of a gummy smile.
Results are subtle and typically last about 2 to 3 months, after which normal muscle function returns.
