In the ever-evolving world of cosmetic enhancements, achieving a fuller, more aesthetically pleasing smile is a common goal for many. Among the various procedures available, the Lip Flip has emerged as a popular, minimally invasive option. At CLNQ in Cheshire & Manchester Lip Flip procedures offer a subtle enhancement to the lips, providing a fuller smile without the volume added by traditional lip fillers. Lip fillers can make the lips look too full, often described as a duck lip appearance.
A Lip Flip is a procedure that uses a small dose of botulinum toxin (known by brands like Botox, Azzalure, or Dysport) to enhance the upper lip. While lip fillers physically enhance volume, a Lip Flip is a more subtle technique that relaxes the muscles around the mouth. This relaxation allows the top lip to curl upward and outward, giving the appearance of fuller lips without increasing its volume significantly.
The Lip Flip is a simple and quick procedure that helps give a subtle and temporary enhancement to the lips. There are alternative options, including lip filler, to provide more volume. Surgical options can include a lip lift procedure to help shorten the length of the upper lip and help evert the upper lip, giving a more youthful look. This can be a longer term solution as compared to the Lip Flip.
The Lip Flip procedure is relatively quick and straightforward. Our doctor or nurse will inject a small dosage of botulinum toxin into the orbicularis oris muscle, which is the muscle that controls the movement of the mouth and lips. By targeting specific areas of this muscle, the injections cause the lip to "flip" upwards, thereby increasing the visibility of the upper lip. The entire process typically takes about 10 to 20 minutes. It is performed in our CQC-registered clinic, and no anaesthesia is required.
The results of this treatment are temporary. Typically, the effects last between two to four months.
With a Lip Flip Manchester & Cheshire patients can experience the longevity of their results vary depending on several factors, including the individual's metabolism, the quantity of botulinum toxin used, and how actively they use their facial muscles.
The cost of a Lip Flip can vary based on the product, amount, and experience of the injector. At CLNQ, the price for the Lip Flip with our doctors is £150 per session.
Lip Flips are minimally invasive procedures, but as with any medical treatment, there are some possible side effects to consider. These include:
The Lip Flip is a desirable option for those looking to subtly enhance their smile. Its minimally invasive nature and relatively low cost make it an attractive alternative to more invasive procedures like lip fillers. However, the temporary results and potential risks highlight the importance of choosing a skilled and experienced doctor or nurse. By understanding the nuances of the treatment, you can make an informed decision that aligns with your aesthetic goals and expectations. Always ensure that any cosmetic procedure is performed by a licensed professional to maximize the potential benefits and minimize risks.
The choice between a Lip Flip and lip fillers depends on the desired outcome. A Lip Flip offers a more subtle enhancement, while fillers provide more volume and definition.
Yes, you can apply lipstick and other lip products after the procedure. However, it's advisable to wait a few hours after the procedure to avoid any interference with the treatment.
The effects begin to appear within two to four days after the treatment, with full results visible within one to two weeks.
