Lip Flip

Lip Flips use a small amount of  very precise injections to relax the muscles around your upper lip so it turns upward and outward.

This can make your lip look fuller, but its actual volume does not increase. Your lip size will remain the same.

It can also help to smooth & prevent vertical lines developing above your lip.

How we feel about Lip Flips at our clinics.

Lots of our patients love the Lip flip as they like the idea of enhancing their upper lip without looking over-filled. There are also some patinet who do not like it and prefer Lip Augmentation treatments

It really is a nice alternative to dermal fillers for patients who prefer the subtle look!

What Are My Options?

You may see other clinics, hoping to cash in on this beauty trend ‘Talking Up’ the procedure. Despite all the hype this treatment is getting on Tik Tok as the cheap alternative to dermal lip fillers, it may not actually be the best option for you.

Dr. Mark Hamilton is always honest with his patients and will only treat those for whom the procedure is going to give them an improvement to their appearance.

Am I a suitable candidate?

If you are happy with your upper lip size but you feel that it disappears when you smile, a lip flip could be an option you might like to try instead of dermal lip filler.

Should you feel that the results are too subtle or short term, you can always try dermal filler at another visit.

What could go wrong with a Lip Flip?

It takes a very high level of skill  on behalf of your injector to achieve the right effect- the trick is not to overdose the upper lip.

If you are over injected, it will result in an over relaxation of your lip. It could also make your lips hard to close and affect how you talk, smile, drink and kiss!

The muscles around your lip may relax too much. You may drool, have difficulty drinking and struggle to words starting with the letter P and applying lipstick if the injections are too close to your mouth.

You might also experience the following
