Quick Answer: What is a Lip Flip?
A lip flip uses a small amount of Botox along the upper lip border to relax the muscle, allowing the lip to gently roll outward for a subtle, fuller appearance — without filler. It's a quick, accessible treatment ideal for clients wanting natural enhancement without the commitment of lip filler Edmonton.
Understanding the Lip Flip
A subtle enhancement technique that's become increasingly popular among Edmonton clients seeking natural-looking lip refinement.
How It Works
A small amount of Botox (typically 4–8 units) is injected into the orbicularis oris muscle along the upper lip border. This relaxes the muscle, allowing the upper lip to gently flip outward, revealing more of the pink lip. The effect is subtle — a slight enhancement, not dramatic volume. A lip flip uses the same Botox Edmonton clients trust for other treatment areas.
The result is a natural enhancement that reveals more of your natural lip without adding volume — ideal for clients who want refinement rather than transformation.
Who It's For
- Clients who want a subtle upper lip enhancement without filler
- Those with a gummy smile
- Clients wanting to try a temporary option before committing to lip filler
- Anyone wanting a more balanced lip appearance with minimal commitment
