Lip Flip
A Lip Flip is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of your lips. By using small amounts of Botox, this treatment relaxes the muscles around the upper lip, creating a fuller, more defined look without the need for fillers. Perfect for those seeking a subtle enhancement, a Lip Flip can give you the confidence of a beautifully curved smile.
Our Expert Approach
A lip flip is a quick, non-surgical cosmetic procedure that creates a subtle enhancement to your upper lip using small amounts of Botulinum toxin (Botox). At Pinkal Medical Aesthetics Clinic, Nurse Practitioner Pinkal Gandhi specializes in this innovative treatment that can create a natural-looking fuller lip appearance without dermal fillers.
Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes muscles. In the case of a Lip Flip, Botox is injected into the orbicularis oris muscle, which encircles the mouth. This relaxation prevents the upper lip from curling inward, allowing it to flip out slightly. The procedure requires precision to ensure a subtle yet noticeable enhancement without affecting the overall function of the lips.
How Does It Work?
The procedure involves precise injections of Botox into the muscles around the upper lip (orbicularis oris). This relaxes the muscle, causing the lip to "flip" slightly outward, creating the appearance of a fuller, more pronounced upper lip while maintaining a natural look.

Treatment Journey
Consultation
Your journey begins with a consultation to discuss your goals and assess your suitability for the Lip Flip procedure.
Preparation
On the day of the treatment, the target areas around your upper lip are cleansed. A topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort.
Injection
Small amounts of Botox are carefully injected into specific points around the upper lip. The entire process takes only a few minutes.
Post-Treatment
After the injections, you can resume most of your regular activities immediately. Some minor swelling or bruising may occur but typically resolves within a few days.
Causes Behind the Concern
With age and muscle activity, lips can lose their fullness and definition. Some people naturally have thinner lips and desire a more pronounced shape. The Lip Flip addresses these concerns by targeting the muscles around the mouth. The effects include a slight upward flip of the upper lip, making it appear fuller and more prominent. This creates a balanced, youthful look while maintaining a natural appearance.

• Quick and Convenient: The procedure is swift, often completed in less than 15 minutes.
