What Is a Botox Lip Flip?

A Lip Flip uses Botox (botulinum toxin) injected into the muscles just above your upper lip to relax them. This relaxation lets the upper lip roll slightly outward, creating the illusion of fuller lips without adding any filler substance.

 Key Difference from Lip Fillers

  • Lip Flip: No added volume — just muscle relaxation for a subtle outward curl.
  • Lip Fillers: Injected gel (like hyaluronic acid) adds volume to the lips.

Lip Flip is ideal if you want a subtle lift or a natural-looking enhancement without filler.

How It Works

  1. Consultation: A professional assesses your lips and discusses goals.
  2. Injection: Small units of Botox are given just above the upper lip.
  3. Quick Procedure: Takes about 5–10 minutes — often referred to as a lunchtime treatment.
  4. Minimal Downtime: You can usually go about your day right after.

Results & Duration

  • First effects: typically visible within 3–7 days after treatment.
  • Full effect: around 7–10 days.
  • Duration: generally 2–3 months before you may want a touch-up.

What It Can Do for You

 Benefits

  • Subtle lift of the upper lip for a fuller look without adding volume.
  • More defined lip line or Cupid’s bow.
  • May slightly reduce a gummy smile.
  • Quick, non-surgical, minimal downtime.

Aftercare Tips

To get the best results:

  • Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for the first day.
  • Keep upright for a few hours after injections.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and hot environments (sauna/steam) for 24 hours.

Who It’s Best For

  • People who want natural-looking lip enhancement without adding volume.
  • Those with upper lips that disappear when smiling or appear thin.
  • First-time lip enhancement seekers wanting a gentle, temporary change.

Typical Cost Notes in Seoul

Prices can vary by clinic, injector experience, and the number of Botox units used, but generally a Lip Flip is more affordable than traditional lip fillers because it uses fewer units of product.

Quick Decision Checklist

✔ Did the injector explain what a Lip Flip does (not volume addition)?
✔ Was pricing and expected result explained clearly?
✔ Is follow-up care available if you have questions?
✔ Did the consultation include reviewing your lip shape and goals?
