Lip-Flip Injections in Orlando
A lip-flip is a cosmetic injection using a toxin such as Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin that enhances your lips appearance by creating a fuller, more defined look. As dermal fillers increase volume volume in the lips, a lip flip involves the use of a small amount of (botulinum toxin) that gets injected into your muscles around the mouth, specifically the orbicularis oris muscle.
How a Lip Flip Works:
Injection Process: A trained professional administers a series of small Botox injections into the upper lip, near the vermillion border (the line where the lip meets the skin of the face).
Muscle Relaxation: The Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles around the upper lip, causing the lip to flip outward slightly. This outward flip gives the illusion of a fuller upper lip without actually adding volume.
Procedure Duration: The procedure is quick, typically taking around 10-20 minutes. It requires no downtime, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
Benefits of a Lip Flip:
Natural Enhancement: Provides a subtle, natural-looking enhancement to the upper lip.
Non-Invasive: Avoids the use of dermal fillers, which some people prefer to avoid.
Quick & Convenient: The procedure is fast and involves minimal discomfort and no recovery time.
Temporary Results: Ideal for those who want to try out a fuller lip look without committing to long-term changes, as the effects last about 2-3 months.
Considerations:
Mild Side Effects: May include slight bruising, or swelling.
Effect Duration: The results are not permanent, requiring periodic treatments to maintain the desired appearance.
Suitability: Best suited for individuals with a thinner upper lip or those looking for a subtle enhancement rather than a significant increase in lip volume.
Overall, a lip flip is a popular option for those seeking a quick, non-surgical way to achieve a more defined and fuller upper lip, with minimal risk and downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions About Botox® Treatments
What is OnabotulinumtoxinA?

Its ability to smooth frown lines and wrinkles was first documented in 1989, and the FDA approved Botox® for cosmetic procedures in 2002. Since then, it’s become a popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure worldwide.

LightTouch Med Spa® offers complimentary consultations with our Nurse Practitioners so that you can discuss any questions and concerns you may have. All of our consultations are confidential and are conducted in any of our five clinics. Together, you and our Nurse Practitioner will review your skincare and beauty goals and determine if Botox® is the right choice for you.
How much Botox® should my practitioner use?
The amount of Botox® used will vary depending on the condition of your skin, your age, skin type, and your overall skincare goals. If you are using Botox® to treat a condition such as hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) the number of units will vary again. To determine the number of units that should be used for your individual needs, our Nurse Practitioner will conduct a free skin analysis during your consultation. A personalized facial chart will be created to map out how many units will be administered.
How much experience does a nurse practitioner have?
Our Nurse Practitioners have many years of experience with injectable treatments. Each Practitioner on our team is a certified Cosmetic Nurse Practitioner. In addition to their formal education, our Practitioners continually attend training seminars with the top Nurse Injectors in the industry. We believe in ongoing education so that we can provide you with the best service possible.
Where should Botox® be injected?
The most common injection sites for Botox® are:
- Forehead
- Between the eyebrows
- Around the mouth (laugh lines)
- Around the eyes (crow’s feet)
- Under arms & palms of hands (hyperhidrosis treatment)
Botox® should NOT be injected into the lips
What if I stop Botox® treatments?
Botox® is not a permanent solution. After approximately 3-4 months, if you wish to maintain results, you will need to return for further treatments.
What are the contraindications for Botox®?
