Lip Flip in Phoenix, AZ

A Fuller Upper Lip — Naturally

About This Treatment

The Lip Flip is a subtle, natural-looking lip enhancement that uses a small amount of Botox® to relax the orbicularis oris muscle around the upper lip, causing it to gently roll outward and appear fuller. It is an ideal option for patients wanting lip enhancement without filler.

How It Works

A few units of Botox® are injected into the muscle above the upper lip. As the muscle relaxes, the upper lip gently flips upward and outward, revealing more of the lip's natural vermilion border and creating the appearance of a fuller upper lip — without adding volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a Lip Flip different from lip filler?

A Lip Flip creates the appearance of a fuller lip by changing the muscle position — it does not add volume. Lip filler adds actual volume to the lips. Many patients combine both for optimal results.

Does it affect how I talk or eat?

Some patients notice a temporary adjustment period of a few days as they adapt to the muscle relaxation. This resolves quickly and most patients have no functional issues.
