The Botox Lip Flip procedure is quick and involves using a tiny needle to inject Botox into specific muscles around the upper lip. This relaxes the muscles, allowing the upper lip to flip slightly upward, creating a fuller appearance without adding volume. The procedure is relatively painless, thanks to the application of a topical numbing cream.
Preparation and Aftercare Timeline
How Botox Produces a Flip or Curl in the Lip
Botox works to create a flip or curl in the lip by relaxing the muscles around the mouth. Specifically, it targets the orbicularis oris muscle, which encircles the mouth. When small amounts of Botox are injected into this muscle, it temporarily reduces its activity. This relaxation allows the upper lip to roll slightly outward, creating a subtle yet noticeable enhancement in the shape and appearance of the lip. The result is a fuller, more defined lip contour without the need for fillers or invasive procedures, making it an ideal option for those seeking a natural-looking improvement.
Benefits of the Botox Lip Flip
The Botox Flip offers several benefits:
- Non-invasive with minimal downtime
- Enhances the upper lip subtly
- Provides a more youthful and balanced smile
- Quick procedure with immediate results
Who is an Ideal Candidate for the Lip Flip?
Ideal candidates for the Botox Lip Flip are individuals seeking a subtle enhancement of their upper lip without the added volume of fillers. It’s perfect for those looking for a quick, non-invasive procedure with minimal recovery time.
Additionally, people with a gummy smile often have thinner lips due to the excessive activity of the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi (LLSAN) muscle. By reducing this muscle activity, this can help achieve fuller, more defined lips. Thus, this procedure can be a non-invasive solution for individuals looking to correct a gummy smile and enhance their lip appearance.
Combining the Botox Lip Flip with Other Treatments
Many clients choose to combine the Botox Flip with other treatments such as lip fillers or gummy smile correction for more comprehensive results. This combination can create a fuller, more balanced look, enhancing both the volume and shape of the lips.
Post-Procedure Care for the Botox Lip Flip
After the Botox Flip, it’s important to avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours. This helps prevent the Botox from spreading to unintended areas. Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat exposure for a day to ensure the best results.

While Botox is the most commonly used product for a Flip, other neuromodulators like Dysport can also be used. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre, we primarily use Botox for this procedure.
How long do the results last?
The effects of a Botox Lip curl typically last 4-6 weeks, depending on factors such as metabolism and muscle activity. Regular touch-ups are recommended to maintain the desired look.
Is it painful?
The Lip curl procedure involves minimal discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied before the injections to ensure your comfort.
What is the recovery time?
Recovery time is minimal, with most side effects like redness or swelling resolving within 24 hours. Any discomfort or bruising usually subsides within a few days.
What is the difference between lip fillers and a Lip Flip?
While lip fillers add volume and shape to the lips, a Lip Flip uses Botox to relax the muscles around the upper lip, causing it to flip upward for a fuller appearance without added volume.
Can I combine lip fillers and a Botox for enhanced results?
Yes, combining lip fillers with a Botox Flip can provide enhanced results by adding volume and shape, while also lifting the upper lip for a more balanced look.
