WHO’S A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR THE PROCEDURE?
Are you looking to enhance your lips without the use of dermal fillers? Lip flip procedure with Botox might be just what you need. At “It’s Me & You Clinic,” we offer the lip flip procedure to individuals who have specific concerns about their upper lip and smile. If you desire fuller-looking lips without the need for dermal fillers, the lip flip could be an ideal choice.
Candidates for the lip flip procedure often include those who feel that their upper lip “disappears” when they smile. If you’re unhappy with a gummy smile, where your gums are more visible than you’d prefer, the lip flip can help create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.
It’s important to note that the effects of the lip flip procedure typically last for 8 to 12 weeks. If you’re seeking a more long-lasting solution, lip fillers may be a more suitable option for you. Our experienced professionals will guide you through the treatment process, assess your specific needs, and recommend the most appropriate procedure to help you achieve your desired lip enhancement goals.
At “It’s Me & You Clinic,” we prioritize natural-looking results and provide personalized care tailored to your unique requirements. Book a consultation with our experts to explore the lip flip procedure and determine the best approach for your lip enhancement journey.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BOTOX LIP FLIP AND FILLER?
The Botox lip reshaping and lip fillers are two different cosmetic procedures used to enhance the appearance of the lips, but they achieve their results through different mechanisms.
Botox Lip Flip
The Botox lip reshaping involves injecting a small amount of Botox into the muscles around the upper lip, specifically the orbicularis oris muscle. This relaxes the muscle and causes a subtle “flip” or upward curl of the upper lip. The goal of the Botox lip enhancement technique is to create the illusion of a fuller upper lip by exposing more of the lip vermilion and improving the definition of the lip border. It does not add volume to the lips, but rather enhances the existing lip structure.
Lip Fillers
Lip fillers, often composed of hyaluronic acid, are injected into the lips to add volume, shape, and contour. They are designed to plump up the lips and create a fuller appearance. Lip fillers can be used to address lip thinness, asymmetry, or to enhance the overall size and shape of the lips. Different types of lip fillers are available, and the choice depends on the desired outcome and the recommendations of the healthcare professional.
The key differences between the Botox lip flip and lip fillers include:
Results
The Botox lip flip primarily enhances the shape and definition of the upper lip, while lip fillers add volume and fullness to the lips.
Injection sites
Botox lip flip injections are targeted at the muscles surrounding the upper lip, while lip fillers are injected directly into the lips.
The effects of a Botox lip flip typically last for a few months, while lip fillers can provide results that last for several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used.
Treatment goals
The Botox lip flip is suitable for individuals who desire a subtle enhancement and improvement in lip shape, while lip fillers are more appropriate for those seeking a more noticeable increase in lip volume and size.
The choice between a Botox lip flip and lip fillers depends on individual goals, preferences, and the recommendations of a qualified healthcare professional. They can assess your specific needs, discuss the available options, and guide you in selecting the most suitable treatment to achieve your desired lip enhancement outcomes.
