Understanding  the treatment: 

What is Lip Flip Botox? 

A lip flip, also known as Botulinum toxin type A, refers to a non-surgical cosmetic injectables procedure that helps achieve a fuller upper lip without using a dermal filler. It involves the administration of a small amount into the cupid bows or the corner. 

Symptoms addressed: 

  • The upper lip disappears when smiling. 
  • Feeling self-conscious about a gummy smile. 
  • Wanting more definition without volume. 
  • Seeking natural-looking enhancement. 

How does it work? 

The lip flip treatment is done by administering Botox into the muscles targeting the orbicularis oris muscle. The injection temporarily relaxes the facial muscles near the lip, which causes the lip to flip outward, providing a more plump appearance. 

Types of botulinum toxin injections: 

The below are the types of Botox injections

  • Xeomin. 
  • Dysport. 
  • Jeaveau. 

Benefits of the treatment: 

  • Delivers natural-looking enhancement. 
  • Defines a more pronounced lip. 
  • Effects last between 4-5 months. 
  • 90% improvement in lip symmetry and show. 
  • Smoothens the smile lines. 
  • Adds no extra volume. 

Who is it for?

You are the perfect candidate if: 

  • Your upper lip thins out when you smile. 
  • You want a more defined lip line. 
  • The candidate prefers natural-looking results. 
  • Candidates are curious about lip enhancement but are not ready for fillers. 

Lip flip before and after: 

At Estheticare Clinic, we provide top-quality results. The effect of the lip filler lasts from 2-3 months. Although the results last for a longer time, they create a fuller appearance to the lips. The lip flip uses Botox, which does not increase the volume.
