What Is a Lip Flip?
By injecting a small amount of BOTOX around the upper lip, the muscles relax causing the lip to gently “flip” upward, creating the appearance of a fuller top lip. The lip flip is for those who want a natural, subtle enhancement without adding volume. It can also help reduce a “gummy smile,” where too much gum shows when smiling.
What Are Lip Fillers?
Lip filler, usually made of hyaluronic acid, injections go directly into the lips to add volume, shape, and definition. Results are more dramatic than a lip flip and can be custom based on your desired fullness. Fillers are also effective for correcting asymmetry or adding structure to the lip line.
Key Differences
- Volume: Fillers add volume; lip flips do not.
- Duration: Lip flips last about two to three months; fillers can last 6-12 months.
- Cost: Lip flips are typically less expensive upfront but may require more frequent touch-ups.
- Results: Lip flips provide a subtle lift; fillers deliver a plumper, more pronounced look.
