Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lip Flip.

Most patients see results for about six to twelve weeks as the neuromodulator gradually wears off. Individual duration varies based on metabolism, dosage, and muscle activity. Maintenance treatments every two to three months help sustain the softened upper lip appearance.

No — when performed by experienced clinicians, the Lip Flip subtly relaxes the muscle to gently roll the upper lip outward. It enhances smile aesthetics while preserving natural movement, avoiding the 'frozen' appearance associated with higher-dose treatments.

You may notice a subtle change within three to seven days, with full effects developing by two weeks. Results emerge as the targeted muscles relax; follow-up consultations can confirm desired outcome and adjust placement if needed.

Most clients report only mild discomfort from the small injections; no general anesthesia is required. Topical numbing can be applied for added comfort. The procedure is brief and well-tolerated, with minimal immediate side effects.

A Lip Flip enhances the upper lip appearance by relaxing muscles but does not add volume like fillers. For significant fullness, fillers are recommended. Many clients combine both treatments for subtle roll and increased volume.

Avoid rubbing the treated area, strenuous exercise, and alcohol for twenty-four hours. Expect possible mild swelling or bruising. Keep upright for a few hours and contact us with concerns; follow scheduled touch-up recommendations for optimal, lasting results.
