Achieve a fuller, natural-looking smile with a lip flip at Aesthetic Chemistry Medspa. Enhance your lips with minimal downtime and a subtle, beautiful result.
A lip flip with Neurotoxins is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the lips subtly and naturally. By strategically injecting Neurotoxins along the upper lip line, the muscles relax, causing the upper lip to gently “flip” outward. This technique creates the illusion of fuller lips without adding volume, making it an ideal option for those seeking a subtle enhancement. The results typically last for several months, providing a temporary yet effective way to achieve a more defined and appealing lip contour.
How is a lip flip different from lip fillers?
Lip fillers, such as hyaluronic acid-based injections, physically add volume to the lips. In contrast, a lip flip with Neurotoxins enhances lip appearance by relaxing muscles, subtly rolling the upper lip outward for a fuller look.
What can I expect during a lip flip procedure?
During a lip flip procedure, a small amount of Neurotoxins is injected into specific muscles around the upper lip. The injections are administered carefully to achieve the desired subtle enhancement.
Discomfort during a lip flip procedure is typically minimal and brief. Most patients describe it as a slight pinch or pressure at the injection sites. Topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand to enhance comfort.
Potential side effects of a lip flip with Neurotoxins are mild and temporary, including slight swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites. These typically resolve within a few days.
Who is a good candidate for a lip flip?
Good candidates for a lip flip are individuals looking to enhance the shape and appearance of their lips subtly. They should have realistic expectations about the procedure and its outcomes.

Yes, a lip flip with Neurotoxins can be combined with other cosmetic procedures such as dermal fillers or skin treatments to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
The results of a lip flip with Neurotoxins usually last around 2 to 4 months. Over time, the effects gradually wear off, and repeat treatments can maintain the enhanced lip appearance.
5 DAYS BEFORE treatment, avoid blood thinners like Advil, aspirin, Aleve and fish oils. Any blood thinning medication can increase the risk of bruising and swelling after your treatment. If you need to take an over-the-counter pain reliever, Tylenol is ok. Do not drink alcoholic beverages 24 hours before (or after) your treatment to avoid extra bruising
