Lip Flips

Goal #1: soften wrinkles around the mouth (smokers’ lines)

Lines around the mouth deepen and become apparent as we age. Why? Because more movement of the mouth (especially sipping through a straw or smoking) leads to creasing of the skin. With a few injection points of botox, these lines can be soften! It is important to note that for long term results, consistency is key. I’d recommend getting this treatment every 10 weeks!

Lip flips can achieve three goals, and these goals will determine whether this treatment choice is a good option for you!

Here are the 3 Goals:

Goal #2: Give appearance of a fuller upper lip

Are you afraid lip filler will be too much of a change for you and you want to start small? You can try a lip flip! When botox is injected above the upper lip, this relaxes the upper lip muscle, flips the lip, and shows more of the upper lip. Not everyone is a good candidate for this and therefore a thorough consultation is important!

Goal #3: Eliminate Gummy Smile

When you smile, do your gums show when you smile? This is because your upper lip muscle is strong and curls under when you smile. This can easily be fixed with a few injection points of botox right above the lip!
