The Lip Flip
A subtle way to show more of your upper lip without adding any volume to it, using a very small amount of product.
More Lip Without Any Filler
A lip flip uses a tiny amount of wrinkle relaxer placed in the muscle just above the upper lip. That muscle relaxes slightly, and the lip rolls gently outward so more of the pink shows.
Nothing is added. Your lip is not made bigger, it is simply revealed more, which is why it appeals to people who want a change nobody can quite identify.
How This Differs From Lip Filler
The two are often confused and they do genuinely different things. Lip filler adds volume, changing the size and shape of the lip itself.
A flip adds nothing. It changes how much of your existing lip is visible. If you want noticeably fuller lips, filler is the honest answer and we will say so.
Who Gets the Most From It
It suits people whose upper lip disappears when they smile, and people who want the smallest possible change. It also suits anyone curious about lip treatments but not ready for filler.
It is often combined with a gummy smile treatment, since both involve the same small muscles. Both sit within our wider range of injectable treatments.

Not when it is dosed conservatively, which is exactly why the amount matters so much here. Some patients notice a slight difference with straws or certain sounds for the first week.
