What Is a Lip Flip?

A lip flip in Calhoun is a quick, non-surgical technique using micro-doses of BOTOX® or Xeomin® to enhance the appearance of your upper lip. It works by gently relaxing the muscle just above the lip (the orbicularis oris), which allows the upper lip to “flip” outward slightly—showing more pink without adding bulk.

The treatment involves just a few tiny injections, takes under 10 minutes, and results appear within 5–7 days, lasting about three months. It’s ideal for patients who want subtle definition, a more balanced smile, or a preview of what fuller lips could look like—without committing to filler right away.

Lip Flip Benefits

  • Softens a gummy smile without braces or surgery
  • Gently enhances upper lip show for a fuller look
  • Maintains full lip function—speaking, sipping, and smiling feel the same
  • No added volume—perfect if you're not ready for filler
  • Minimal cost and no downtime
  • Pairs beautifully with filler for comprehensive results
  • A great first-step treatment for younger patients or first-timers

What Are Lip Fillers?

Lip fillers use hyaluronic acid (HA)—a sugar your body naturally produces—to hydrate, plump, and define the lips. Injected in small, strategic amounts, HA gels like Juvéderm® Ultra, Volbella, or Restylane Kysse restore lost volume, enhance shape, and correct asymmetry.

Our Calhoun team uses fine-tipped needles or flexible micro-cannulas to precisely sculpt the lips for pillowy softness and smooth movement—never a stiff or unnatural result.

Are You a Good Candidate for a Lip Flip or Fillers in Colhoun?

You’re likely a great candidate for lip injections in Calhoun if you’re:

  • A healthy adult (18+)
  • Looking to refine your smile without downtime
  • Not pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Free of active cold sores or lip infections
  • Realistic about your goals (enhancement—not transformation)

We’ll also review any dental work, speech needs, or athletic/musical activities that may affect treatment to ensure results feel as good as they look.

What to Expect During Your Lip Treatment 

  1. We cleanse the area and apply numbing cream or a chilled vibration tool
  2. For a lip flip, we place 4–6 small injections just above the upper lip
  3. For lip filler, we use a needle or cannula to sculpt volume and shape
  4. You’ll see instant results with filler; the lip flip reveals over the next few days
  5. We apply soothing gel and review after-care, all in under 45 minutes

Most patients describe discomfort as mild (2–3/10), thanks to built-in lidocaine and gentle technique.

Recovery After a Lip Flip or Filler

  • Avoid straws, saunas, and strenuous workouts for 24 hours
  • Sleep with your head slightly elevated the first night
  • Use cool compresses or arnica to speed healing
  • Final results settle by day 3–5 (flip) or day 7 (filler)

Lip Flip & Fillers Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a flip and filler together?

Yes—and many do! The flip enhances lip show while filler adds volume and shape.

Will my lips feel different?

Only for a day or two. Filler settles quickly and movement remains completely natural.

How long should I wait before lipstick?

Wait 6 hours post-treatment. Use clean, fresh applicators to avoid irritation.

Can I dissolve filler later?

Yes—HA-based fillers can be safely reversed if your style or preferences change.

How often do I need to come back?

  • Lip flip: every 3 months
  • Filler: every 6–12 months depending on product and metabolism
