Hello Beauties!

Are you looking to enhance your lips without committing to full lip filler treatments? A Lip Flip might be the perfect solution for you! In this newsletter, we’ll dive into what a lip flip is, the benefits, common myths, and what to expect before and after treatment. Plus, we’ve included some FAQs to clear up any lingering questions.

What is a Lip Flip?

A Lip Flip is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a small amount of Botox to relax the muscles around the upper lip. This causes the lip to gently “flip” outward, making it appear fuller without adding actual volume. It’s a quick and subtle way to enhance the appearance of your lips, perfect for those seeking a more natural look.

Benefits of a Lip Flip

1. Natural-Looking Enhancement: If you want a more subtle lip transformation, a lip flip enhances the upper lip’s appearance without the need for fillers.
2. Quick Procedure with Minimal Downtime: The treatment takes about 10-15 minutes, and there’s no recovery time, making it perfect for anyone with a busy schedule.
3. Cost-Effective Option: Compared to dermal fillers, a lip flip is more affordable, offering an accessible way to try lip enhancement without a big commitment.
4. Great for First-Timers: If you’re curious about lip treatments but aren’t ready for fillers, the lip flip is a great starting point to see how you like the look.
5. Improves Lip Shape: Beyond making your lips appear fuller, a lip flip can also slightly improve the shape and definition of your lips.

Myth Buster: Debunking Common Lip Flip Myths

Myth 1: A lip flip will make my lips too big.

• Truth: A lip flip is a subtle enhancement. It does not add volume but simply reshapes the lip by relaxing the muscles.

Myth 2: It’s the same as lip fillers.

• Truth: Lip flips and lip fillers are different. Fillers add volume, while a lip flip only adjusts the position of your natural lip.

Myth 3: A lip flip lasts forever.

• Truth: A lip flip typically lasts 6-8 weeks. It’s temporary, which is perfect if you want to experiment with a new look.

Myth 4: The procedure is painful.

• Truth: Most patients describe the lip flip as a slight pinch. There’s minimal discomfort, and numbing cream can be applied for extra comfort.

Before and After Treatment

Before the Treatment:

• Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen for a few days to reduce the risk of bruising.
• Refrain from alcohol 24 hours before your appointment.
• Arrive with a clean face and avoid makeup around the mouth area.

After the Treatment:

• Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours.
• Stay upright for 4 hours after the procedure to allow the Botox to settle properly.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs) for at least 24-48 hours.
• You’ll start to see results within 3-5 days, with full results appearing within two weeks.

FAQs about Lip Flip

1. How long does a lip flip last?
   A lip flip typically lasts around 6-8 weeks. After that, the Botox will naturally wear off, and you can return for a touch-up if you wish.
2. Is a lip flip safe?
   Yes! A lip flip is a safe, FDA-approved procedure when done by a qualified professional.
3. Can I combine a lip flip with lip fillers?
   Absolutely! Many people combine both treatments to achieve the fuller lip look from fillers with the subtle flip from Botox.
4. How soon can I wear lipstick after a lip flip?
   You can resume wearing lipstick 24 hours after the procedure, once the Botox has settled.
5. Are there any side effects?
   Some patients may experience mild bruising or swelling, but these typically subside within a few days. Rarely, slight difficulty sipping through a straw or pronouncing certain words may occur, but this is temporary.
