What it is
A Lip Flip is a quick, subtle treatment that relaxes the muscle around the mouth so more of your upper lip shows when you smile. It creates the look of a softer, slightly fuller lip without adding volume.
How it works
A few carefully placed units of neurotoxin are delivered into the small muscles at the edge of the upper lip. This reduces the inward pull that tucks the lip under, allowing it to gently roll outward and reveal more of its natural shape.
What to Expect
-
No special prep needed. Just come with a clean face and avoid blood thinners if possible.
-
No downtime, but you might feel a slight tightness when drinking from a straw or puckering. Full effect visible in 5–7 days.

Supporting your results
A Lip Flip makes more of your upper lip visible when you smile, creating a softer and slightly fuller look. If you’re also noticing extra movement when smiling, or feel your lip could use more shape and structure, pairing with Lip Filler or Gummy Smile Correction can enhance balance for a more defined, harmonious smile.

Targeted neurotoxin relaxes the overactive muscles that lift the upper lip too high, softening gum show and creating a more balanced, natural-looking smile.
Frequently asked questions
-
A Lip Flip uses a small dose of neurotoxin (like Botox or Daxxify) to relax the muscle just above your upper lip. This causes the lip to roll slightly outward — not inflate or enlarge — letting more of your natural lip show, especially when you smile.
-
Lip filler adds volume, shape, and structure to the lips — which makes it ideal if you're looking for more definition or projection. A Lip Flip doesn’t do that. It’s all about soft movement and subtle visibility, without changing the lip’s actual size.
-
You might notice a slight difference when sipping from a straw or puckering — especially in the first few days. It's minor, short-lived, and doesn’t affect your ability to speak, smile, or go about daily life.
-
You’ll still look like yourself. The change is subtle, and gives off that “you look really great but I can’t put my finger on it” vibe.” It’s a small adjustment that shows up more in motion than in the mirror.
-
Both.
A Lip Flip can be done as a standalone treatment or combined with lip filler, perioral smoothing, or other lower-face options — depending on what you’re hoping to shape or soften. -
Ideally, book your appointment 7–10 days before any event where you’d want to see the full effect. Results usually appear within 5–7 days and last about 6–8 weeks.
Giving yourself that time helps ensure everything feels natural and fully settled by the time it matters most.
