NATURAL. SUBTLE. YOU.
Reveal more of your natural upper lip without adding filler volume.
Let a little more of your natural upper lip show. A lip flip gently changes how the border sits, creating a subtly more visible lip without added filler volume. It is a considered choice when your goal is a small refinement that complements the way you smile.

A lip flip is a botulinum toxin treatment targeting part of the upper-lip muscle. Relaxing this muscle lets the lip border turn slightly outwards, revealing existing lip tissue rather than adding filler.

Choose a lip flip if you would like more of your upper lip to show without adding filler volume. It is a subtle approach for a lip that turns inwards with muscle movement, rather than a volume treatment.

Botulinum toxin treatment starts with a medical assessment of your health, medicines and the area being treated. Temporary bruising, tenderness or unwanted weakness can occur. Seek urgent medical attention for difficulty swallowing or breathing, or weakness beyond the treated area.
Here’s what to expect at each stage, from your consultation to your follow-up.

We review the concern, medical history, medicines, muscle movement and treatment goals.

The skin is cleaned, the treatment points are marked and the planned dose is confirmed.

Small botulinum toxin injections relax the upper-lip muscle, allowing the lip to turn slightly outwards.

Aftercare is explained and a review is arranged if the indication or response requires it.
Share your medical history, allergies, medicines and previous procedures, and do not stop prescribed medicine unless the prescribing clinician advises it. Avoid treatment during active infection and tell the clinician about pregnancy, breastfeeding or neuromuscular conditions.
Keep the area clean, avoid rubbing or pressing it, and follow the clinician’s advice about exercise, heat and other facial treatments. Contact the clinic if symptoms become severe or unusual.
Within 3-7 days, the upper lip starts to roll out slightly for a more visible lip border without adding filler volume. The settled effect is assessed after 10-14 days; repeat treatment follows the return of lip movement.

A lip flip changes how the upper lip rests and moves. Filler adds volume and can refine shape. Your clinician helps you choose the approach that matches your lip anatomy and the change you want.
Appointments usually take 15-30 minutes. Early changes are usually seen within 3-7 days. The final cosmetic result is usually assessed after 10-14 days. The effect commonly lasts about 3-4 months, but individual duration varies. Your prescriber plans repeat treatment around returning movement or symptoms and the appropriate treatment interval.
Discomfort is typically rated 2-3 out of 10. Topical numbing is available when appropriate. Downtime is minimal, and most people return to normal daily activity the same day. Small raised injection marks or mild swelling may last a few hours and occasionally up to 1-2 days.
