What is a Lip Flip?
A lip flip uses a small amount of Botox — typically 4 to 6 units — injected into the orbicularis oris muscle just above the upper lip. Relaxing this muscle causes the upper lip to curl slightly outward, creating the appearance of a fuller, more defined lip without adding volume.
Treatment takes under 10 minutes and costs significantly less than lip filler. Results appear within 5 to 7 days and last 6 to 8 weeks — shorter than filler because the lip muscles are highly active and metabolize Botox faster.
A lip flip is not a substitute for lip filler. It does not add volume — it changes the shape of the upper lip by flipping it outward. It works best for people who want a subtle enhancement, whose upper lip disappears when they smile, or who want to test lip augmentation before committing to filler.

- Is a lip flip a good option if I want to try lip augmentation for the first time?
- What happens if I decide I want more volume after the flip — can I add filler on top?
