LIP FLIP

What Is a Lip Flip?
A lip flip is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that uses small amounts of anti-wrinkle injections to enhance the appearance of the upper lip. The treatment works by relaxing the orbicularis oris muscle around the mouth, allowing the upper lip to gently roll outward and reveal more of the natural lip surface.
This creates the appearance of a fuller and more defined upper lip without adding volume. Unlike dermal fillers, a lip flip does not increase lip size but subtly improves the shape and visibility of the upper lip.
Lip Flip vs Lip Filler
A lip flip and lip filler both enhance the lips, but they work in different ways.
- Lip Flip – relaxes the muscles around the upper lip to slightly roll the lip outward
- Lip Filler – adds volume and structure to the lips using hyaluronic acid filler
A lip flip is ideal for patients looking for a subtle enhancement or for those who want to improve lip definition without adding volume.
Who Is Suitable for a Lip Flip?
A lip flip may be suitable for patients who:
- Have a thin upper lip that disappears when smiling
- Show excessive gum when smiling (gummy smile)
- Want a subtle lip enhancement
- Prefer a non-filler option for lip improvement
The treatment can also be combined with lip fillers for patients who want additional volume and definition.
Results and Longevity
Results usually begin to appear within a few days, with full results visible after approximately 10–14 days.
The effects typically last around 6–12 weeks, as the muscles around the mouth are very active. Regular treatments can help maintain the result.

FAQ
Do lip flips look more natural?
Opting for a lip flip with Botox can offer a wonderfully natural appearance compared to lip fillers. Meanwhile, keen observers can usually tell if someone has fillers because of the exaggerated volume of their lips.
What are the cons of a lip flip?
Cons: A lip flip can negatively impact your lip functions and change the way you speak in some instances. If you’re unhappy with your results, you have to wait about three months for the effects to wear off.
How long does it take for a lip flip to look normal?
You’ll find that a lip flip typically lasts between 2-3 months, with full results appearing within 10-12 days post-procedure, offering a temporary, subtle enhancement without the need for added volume.
Can you drink from a straw with a lip flip?
No, lip flips do not impact eating – but they can have an effect on drinking from a straw. After a procedure, it may be difficult to purse your lips together to drink out of a straw. Such effects are temporary, will subside over time, and are unlikely to occur in the hands of the right injector.
