What is Botox Lip Flip
Botox lip flip is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that utilizes botulinum toxin to enhance the appearance of the upper lip. By injecting a small amount of Botox into the orbicularis oris muscle, the muscle surrounding the mouth, the treatment helps relax and evert the upper lip slightly. This creates the illusion of a fuller, more pronounced lip without the need for dermal fillers. The procedure is popular for those seeking a subtle enhancement of the lip shape and contour.
How Does a Botox Lip Flip Work
Botox lip flip works by temporarily inhibiting the contraction of the orbicularis oris muscle, allowing the upper lip to gently flip outward. Botox, a neurotoxin, blocks nerve signals to the muscle, causing it to relax. The treatment is precise, targeting specific areas to achieve the desired subtle elevation of the upper lip. Results typically become noticeable within a few days and can last for several months. As the muscle relaxes, the upper lip appears more voluminous, creating a natural and attractive lip flip effect.
Expected Results
Patients undergoing the Botox lip flip can expect a modest yet noticeable enhancement of the upper lip, resulting in a more defined and alluring pout. The treatment provides a subtle change that complements the natural features of the face, avoiding an exaggerated or overdone appearance. The effects typically last for three to four months, after which a follow-up treatment may be recommended to maintain the desired lip shape. Overall, the Botox lip flip is an effective option for individuals looking to refine their lip aesthetics without the use of dermal fillers or invasive procedures.
