The Botox® lip flip is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by creating the illusion of a fuller, more pouty look.
Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume to the lips, the lip flip involves injecting small amounts of Botox® into the muscles surrounding the upper lip. This relaxes the muscles and causes the lip to gently roll upward, resulting in a subtle lifting effect and the appearance of fuller lips.
To achieve a successful lip flip, the Botox® is strategically injected into specific areas of the orbicularis oris muscle, which encircles the mouth. Precise placement is key to ensure optimal results. By targeting the muscles responsible for pulling the upper lip downward, the Botox® injection helps relax these muscles and allows the upper lip to slightly flip outward, revealing more of the lip’s pink portion and creating a fuller appearance.

The duration of a lip flip can vary among individuals, but it generally lasts around 2 to 4 months. Over time, the effects of Botox® gradually diminish, and the muscles regain their normal function. To maintain the desired lip flip results, regular touch-up treatments are necessary. It is important to note that individual factors, such as metabolism and muscle activity, can influence the longevity of the lip flip, and results may vary.
The Russian lip flip is a variation of the traditional lip flip technique. It involves injecting Botox® into the muscles above the upper lip, in addition to the orbicularis oris muscle, to create a more pronounced upward curl. This technique can provide a subtle yet noticeable enhancement, resulting in a fuller, more accentuated upper lip. The Russian lip flip is gaining popularity for those seeking a more dramatic pouty effect.
The cost of a lip flip procedure can vary depending on factors such as the geographic location, the experience and expertise of the injector, and the number of Botox® units required. Typically, a lip flip procedure is less expensive than lip filler treatments since fewer units of Botox® are needed. It is best to consult with a reputable clinic or medical professional to obtain an accurate cost estimate based on your specific needs.
When seeking a lip flip treatment, it is important to find a qualified and experienced injector near your location. Research reputable clinics or medical spas that specialize in facial aesthetics and have a track record of successful lip flip procedures. Look for licensed healthcare professionals who have undergone specialized training in administering Botox® for lip enhancements. Reading reviews and seeking recommendations can also help you find a trusted provider in your area.
While both lip flip and lip filler treatments can enhance the appearance of the lips, they offer different results and involve distinct techniques. The lip flip utilizes Botox® to relax specific muscles and create a lifted effect, whereas lip fillers add volume to the lips using hyaluronic acid-based products. Lip fillers can provide more significant volume enhancement and are ideal for individuals seeking plumper lips. The choice between a lip flip and lip filler depends on your desired outcome and the consultation with your injector.
Before deciding on a lip flip procedure, it’s helpful to view before and after photos from your prospective practitioner to get a better understanding of the potential results. These images showcase the subtle yet impactful changes that can be achieved with a lip flip. You can observe how the upper lip appears more defined, lifted, and slightly fuller after the Botox® treatment. Before and after photos also serve as a visual reference during your consultation, allowing you to communicate your goals effectively to your injector.
