Lip Flip
A Lip Flip uses muscle-relaxing injections to subtly enhance the shape and appearance of the upper lip. Unlike Lip Fillers, which add volume, or Lip Hydration Boosters, which hydrate the lips from within, the Lip Flip focuses on relaxing the muscles around the upper lip. This relaxation creates a natural-looking lift, giving the appearance of fuller, more defined lips. By strategically relaxing these muscles, the upper lip gently rolls outward, resulting in a beautifully enhanced smile and a slightly fuller-looking upper lip. The effect is subtle, yet transformative, offering a refined, natural enhancement.
