Lip Flip Botox is a quick and non-surgical cosmetic treatment that enhances the upper lip by gently flipping it outward, creating the appearance of fuller lips without using dermal fillers. Ideal for those seeking a more defined, pouty smile with minimal downtime, this subtle enhancement is expertly performed in Gangnam’s renowned aesthetic clinics by skilled injectors who specialize in lip symmetry and proportion.
What Is Lip Flip Botox?
Lip Flip Botox involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin (such as Botox®, Xeomin®, or KFDA-approved Korean brands) into the orbicularis oris muscle—specifically just above the upper lip. By relaxing this part of the muscle, the lip slightly “flips” outward, making it appear fuller and more pronounced without adding volume. It also helps reduce the appearance of a gummy smile and enhances the lip line.
What Concerns Can It Address?
This treatment is ideal for enhancing the natural appearance of the lips and correcting mild cosmetic concerns such as:
- Thin or tucked-in upper lips
- Disappearing upper lip when smiling
- Uneven lip line or lip asymmetry
- Minor gummy smile due to upper lip elevation
- A desire for enhancement without fillers
How Does It Work?
Botox works by relaxing the targeted portion of the orbicularis oris muscle, allowing the upper lip to roll slightly upward and outward. This effect creates the visual impression of a fuller lip, improves the overall balance of the smile, and can help expose less gum when smiling—all without increasing lip volume.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may benefit from a Lip Flip Botox if you:
- Want a more defined lip shape without filler
- Feel your upper lip disappears when you smile
- Have a mild gummy smile
- Prefer a subtle, natural enhancement
- Are new to lip treatments and want a conservative option
It is suitable for both women and men looking for a delicate improvement in lip appearance.
What Is the Procedure Like?
- Duration: 5 to 10 minutes
- Anesthesia: Not required; optional numbing cream available
- Injection Points: 4–6 microinjections above the upper lip border
- Product Used: Low-dose botulinum toxin for controlled effect
Post-Treatment & Downtime
There is little to no downtime. Some patients may experience mild swelling, numbness, or slight difficulty with certain lip movements (e.g., sipping through a straw), which typically resolves within 2 to 3 days. Normal activities can be resumed immediately.
When Will I See Results?
You can expect to see the subtle flipping effect within 3 to 5 days, with full enhancement visible by day 7 to 10. Results generally last 2 to 3 months, and repeat sessions help maintain the desired look.
