Lip Flip Sherwood Park: Natural Upper Lip Enhancement
Discover the subtle art of the lip flip at Nurse Injector Shayse in Sherwood Park. A gentle treatment that may enhance your natural upper lip without adding volume—perfect for those seeking a refined, natural-looking result.
Quick Answer: What is a Lip Flip?
A lip flip is a subtle treatment where a small amount of neuromodulator is placed around the upper lip to create a gentle outward "flip" appearance. Unlike lip filler, a lip flip does not add volume—instead, it relaxes the muscles to reveal more of your natural upper lip's vermillion border. The treatment takes approximately 10-15 minutes, and results typically appear within 3-5 days. A lip flip may also help reduce the appearance of a gummy smile in some individuals. Results vary and typically last 6-10 weeks. A consultation with Nurse Injector Shayse in Sherwood Park will help determine if a lip flip is right for your goals.
Understanding the Lip Flip
A subtle enhancement technique that's become increasingly popular in Sherwood Park and Edmonton for those seeking natural-looking lip refinement.
How It Works
The lip flip uses a small amount of neuromodulator—the same product used for Botox treatments—strategically placed along the upper lip border. This relaxes the orbicularis oris muscle, allowing the upper lip to gently roll outward.
The result is a subtle enhancement that reveals more of your natural lip without adding volume. It's ideal for clients who want a refined look or wish to address a gummy smile.
Who It's For
- Those seeking subtle upper lip enhancement
- Clients wanting a natural, non-volumizing result
- Individuals who may have a gummy smile
- First-time clients exploring lip treatments
- Those with naturally thin upper lips seeking definition

Planning for an Event or Wedding?
