What is a Lip Flip Using Botox?
A Botox lip flip is a non-surgical procedure that makes your upper lip appear fuller. Botox injections relax the muscle around the upper lip, causing it to roll outward. As a result, your upper lip appears fuller. This cosmetic treatment creates the illusion of more volume without adding any filler to the lip. Many people get this treatment to reduce a gummy smile, which is a smile that shows excess gum above the teeth. A Botox lip flip strikes a good balance between the upper and lower lip to enhance your smile.
How Does a Botox Lip Flip Work?
If you’re concerned about discomfort, a numbing agent can be applied to your skin before the injections. During this cosmetic procedure, an esthetician injects a small amount of Botox into the muscle above the upper lip. Botox relaxes this muscle, causing the lip to move slightly upward and outward. As a result, this subtle “flip” looks natural and enhances your smile. The treatment itself usually takes as little as 10 minutes. Since it is non-surgical, you won’t have to worry about downtime and can return to your daily routine.

What To Expect During Lip Flip Injections
Consultation
If you want to get a Botox lip flip, the first step is to schedule a consultation with our team. During this meeting, one of our experienced estheticians will assess your lip muscles and determine if a lip flip is right for you.
Treatment
During this treatment, a few injections will be placed above your cupid’s bow, the curve of your upper lip. Discomfort is usually minimal, and some clients describe feeling a quick pinch with each injection. Fortunately, these sensations are generally well-tolerated and quickly subside.
Recovery and Results
Experiencing mild tenderness is common in the first day or two after your lip flip. Generally, these side effects subside in a few days. To have a smooth recovery, follow your esthetician’s aftercare instructions.
Most of our clients begin to notice their lip subtly lift and appear fuller in 3-5 days. The full effect of this treatment usually occurs around two weeks. Over time, the Botox will gradually wear off, but most people see their lip flip results last 2-3 months. If you don’t want your lip flip to fade, you can talk to your esthetician about when to schedule touch-up appointments.
Botox Lip Flip vs. Lip Fillers: What’s the Difference?
A Botox lip flip and lip fillers are two non-surgical ways to enhance the lips with injections. However, each one has a different purpose. With a Botox lip flip, injections are placed strategically to make the upper lip roll outward and appear fuller. However, there is no actual increase in volume. This cosmetic treatment is a good option for anyone who wants to reduce the appearance of a gummy smile or have a fuller-looking lip without fillers.
Lip fillers can increase volume in your upper and lower lips. These fillers enhance volume with a gel-like substance containing hyaluronic acid. This substance naturally occurs in the body and plumps your lips by attracting and retaining water molecules. While too much filler can look overdone, a skilled esthetician can place the right amount in your lips to create natural-looking results. If you want to increase the size of your lips, fillers may be the way to go.
