LIP FLIP BOTOX
A Lip Flip is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to enhance the appearance of your upper lip by relaxing the muscles around it. This relaxation allows more of your natural upper lip to be visible when you smile, creating a fuller and more defined look without adding any extra volume. The results are subtle and natural, giving your lips a gentle upward lift.
The treatment is also used to reduce appearance of fine lines above the lip by relaxing the muscle that causes the lines.
It's important to note that a Lip Flip does not increase the volume of your lips; it simply reveals more of your natural lip shape. Many clients choose to combine a Lip Flip with 0.5ml of lip filler for added volume and enhanced results.

TREATMENT BENEFITS
SUBTLE ENHANCEMENT
The Lip Flip creates a subtle upward lift of the upper lip, making it appear fuller and more defined without the use of fillers or adding volume.
REDUCES GUMMY SMILE
By relaxing the muscles around the upper lip, a Lip Flip can help reduce the appearance of a “gummy” smile, where too much of the gums show when smiling.
Alternatively, you can have gummy smile reduction botox treatment which significantly reduces gummy smile. This can be discussed with the Doctor on the day to determine which treatment is better for you. If appropriate, your appointment can be changed on the day to the relevant treatment.
MINIMAL DOWNTIME
Lip Flip Botox is a quick, non-surgical procedure with minimal discomfort and no downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately after treatment.
Reduction of upper lip lines/smokers lines
By relaxing the upper lip muscle the lines above the lip can reduce. For best results this can be combined with skin boosters, Microneedling and medical grade skin care.

FAQs
WHAT IS BOTOX?
Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin used in medical and cosmetic treatments. When injected into specific muscles, it temporarily relaxes them, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
WHAT IS LIP FLIP BOTOX?
A Lip Flip is a cosmetic procedure that uses Botox injections to relax the muscles around the upper lip. This technique causes the lip to "flip" upward slightly, giving the appearance of a fuller upper lip without adding volume.
The change is only visible when smiling. There is no change when at rest.
HOW DOES LIP FLIP BOTOX DIFFER TO LIP FILLERS?
While both Lip Flip Botox and lip fillers aim to enhance the appearance of the lips, they work differently. Lip fillers add volume and plumpness by injecting hyaluronic acid-based substances, whereas Lip Flip Botox relaxes the muscles around the upper lip to create a subtle lift without adding volume.
This is a great option for someone who is scared of having lip filler as the treatment results are very subtle.
HOW LONG WILL LIP FLIP BOTOX LAST?
The duration of a lip flip can vary from person to person, but typically lasts between 2 and 3 months. Because the area around the mouth is highly active, with constant movement from talking, eating, and smiling, the effects of Botox may not last as long as in other areas of the face.
Regular touch-up treatments can help maintain your desired lip shape.
IS LIP FLIP BOTOX TREATMENT PAINFUL?
Most patients describe the discomfort of a lip flip as minimal. The treatment itself is quick and typically well-tolerated.
WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Results from a Lip Flip typically begin to appear within a few days after the procedure, with full effects visible in about 1 to 2 weeks. The results usually last about 8 to 12 weeks, after which the procedure can be repeated if desired.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
As with any cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects. Common side effects of Lip Flip Botox include temporary swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection site.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR LIP FLIP BOTOX?
A good candidate for Lip Flip Botox is someone looking for a subtle enhancement to their upper lip without adding volume. It is ideal for those who want to show more of their own lip when smiling and reduce the appearance of a "gummy" smile.
CAN LIP FLIP BOTOX BE COMBINED WITH OTHER TREATMENTS?
Yes, Lip Flip Botox can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as lip fillers, for enhanced results. During your consultation, we can discuss your aesthetic goals and recommend a personalised treatment plan.
WILL I STRUGGLE TO USE MY MOUTH AFTER TREATMENT?
In most cases, clients will temporarily experience some changes with certain lip movements, such as sipping through a straw and pouting. These effects are very temporary while the botox is working to get to its full effect and usually resolve within 10 days once it gets to its full effect.
