The Lip Flip is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the lips by using neuromodulators, such as botulinum toxin, to relax the muscles around the upper lip. This treatment creates a subtle outward 'flip' effect, making the lips appear fuller and more defined without the need for fillers. The procedure typically involves a few small injections along the upper lip's border, and results can last for several weeks. It is a minimally invasive option for those seeking a more pronounced lip contour.

How it works

The Lip Flip involves injecting a small amount of botulinum toxin into the upper lip. This relaxes the surrounding muscles, allowing the lip to roll slightly outward, creating a fuller appearance. Its purpose is to enhance lip shape without adding volume, offering a subtle, natural enhancement for a youthful smile.

Lip Flip risks and side effects

Understand potential side effects like swelling, bruising, or asymmetry. Seek prompt care for severe pain, discoloration, or worsening symptoms.

1. Swelling

Mild swelling around the injection site is common and usually subsides within a few days, but some individuals may experience prolonged swelling or discomfort.

2. Bruising

Injecting the lips may cause bruising, which can vary in severity. While generally short-lived, it can take up to two weeks to fully heal.

3. Asymmetry

Occasionally, the results may lead to uneven lip shape or asymmetry, necessitating further adjustments or corrections to achieve the desired look.

4. Nerve Damage

In rare cases, the procedure can lead to temporary or permanent nerve damage, resulting in altered sensation or movement in the lip area.

5. Allergic Reactions

Though uncommon, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to the injectable material, leading to symptoms like redness, itching, or swelling that require medical attention.

Recovery process

Recovery timeline

After a Lip Flip treatment, swelling and bruising may occur, peaking within 24-48 hours and typically resolving within a week. Light physical activity can usually resume after 24 hours, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for several days. Final results generally become visible within 1-2 weeks as the product settles.

Aftercare Instructions

Avoid touching or massaging lips for 24 hours.
Refrain from strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
Do not consume hot beverages for 24 hours.
Steer clear of blood thinners (alcohol, aspirin) for 24 hours.
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling if necessary.
Follow up with your provider if any unusual symptoms occur.

Week 1

During the first week post-Lip Flip, patients may experience mild swelling and bruising, peaking around day two. Results gradually enhance, with optimal effects typically noticeable by the end of the week as swelling subsides.

Week 2

In the second week after a Lip Flip, swelling typically diminishes significantly, revealing fuller, more defined lips. Patients can expect a natural-looking enhancement as the results settle into their final appearance.

Months 1–6+

Patients can expect subtle lip enhancement within weeks, with optimal results visible at around two weeks. Effects typically last three to four months, gradually fading as the product metabolises, maintaining a natural appearance throughout.

Questions about Lip Flip

All your questions answered.

Lip Flip results typically last between 8 to 12 weeks. Factors influencing longevity include individual metabolism, muscle activity, and the amount of Botox used. To maintain your desired look, regular maintenance treatments are recommended every few months. It's best to consult with your practitioner for personalised advice on maintaining your results.

The Lip Flip procedure typically involves minimal discomfort, akin to a quick pinch. To enhance comfort, practitioners often use a topical numbing cream prior to the treatment. During the procedure, they may also employ gentle techniques and offer reassurance to ensure a positive experience. Most patients report only slight discomfort that subsides quickly, with no significant pain expected.

Patients can typically resume normal activities immediately after a Lip Flip treatment with minimal downtime. Some may experience temporary side effects such as swelling, bruising, or tenderness around the lips, which usually resolve within a few days. It’s advised to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup to ensure proper healing and minimise the risk of irritation.

A good candidate for Lip Flip treatment is typically an adult seeking subtle lip enhancement without fillers. Eligibility includes good overall health; however, contraindications may include pregnancy, certain neuromuscular disorders, or allergies to the product used. A consultation with a qualified practitioner is essential to assess individual needs, discuss expectations, and ensure safety for optimal results.
