Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lip Flip.

A Lip Flip uses a small amount of neurotoxin injected into the upper lip muscles to relax them, causing the lip to roll outward and reveal more vermilion. It creates a fuller look without fillers, with visible results in days lasting three to four months.

Most clients experience results lasting about three to four months. Individual factors like metabolism, muscle activity, and dosage affect duration. We recommend follow-up appointments to assess longevity and schedule maintenance treatments to preserve the lifted appearance.

Discomfort is minimal—most describe a quick pinch during injection. No significant downtime is required; mild swelling or bruising can occur for a day or two. Clients can resume normal activities immediately, avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours as a precaution.

Yes; many clients combine a Lip Flip with dermal fillers or other neuromodulator treatments for balanced results. During consultation we assess timing, product interactions, and goals to create a customized plan and determine if same-day treatment is appropriate.

Ideal candidates seek a subtle upper-lip lift, prefer non-filler options, and have realistic expectations. Good overall health and no contraindicating neuromuscular conditions are important; a consultation determines suitability and personalized treatment planning.

Side effects are generally mild, including temporary weakness, slight asymmetry, or bruising. Rare risks include unintended toxin spread causing speech or eating changes. We minimize risks with experienced injectors, proper dosing, and a thorough medical history review.
