A few small units of neurotoxin at the upper lip border, so it rolls out slightly and shows more when you smile. No added volume, just a subtle change in a 15-minute visit.
A lip flip is not filler: it is a few small units of neurotoxin placed around the upper-lip muscle so it relaxes and rolls out slightly, showing a bit more lip when you smile. No volume is added, which is exactly the point for patients who want a subtle change without committing to filler, or who want to soften a lip that curls inward when they smile.
The toxin quiets the orbicularis oris fibers that pull the lip inward, so the natural pink shows more without any product added underneath the skin.
A handful of tiny injections around the upper lip border, about 30 minutes total including check-in. No numbing cream is usually needed.
The change develops gradually over several days, not instantly. Some patients notice a temporary change in how they sip from a straw or articulate certain sounds while the muscle adjusts.
A subtle outward roll that commonly lasts weeks to a few months, shorter than a typical Botox area since the muscle is small. It is easy to combine with lip filler later if you want both effects.
