Lip Flip
Subtly define your lips with lip flip treatment. A lip flip strategically uses injections into the lip to relax the central portion of the muscle. This allows more of the pink part of the lip to show, resulting in a fuller look without adding volume. This treatment is a good option if you are looking to enhance your lips subtly without using filler.
On the day of treatment
Precare
- We will go through your consent form, which will have been emailed before the session to you, and you will then be asked to sign a physical copy.
- The doctor will then cleanse your skin so that he can assess it.
- During his assessment, he will look at skin thickness and quality along with the underlying muscles to determine the injection points needed.
- The target area will be numbed if necessary and then treated with a microfine needle to minimise discomfort.
Our Process
On the market for more than 20 years, anti-wrinkle injections are safe, well-tested, and proven to be effective. By using a small needle into the muscle to inhibit movement while leaving the skin in front of it smooth. As the muscle can’t move for a period of time it gives the skin time to soften and disappear.
While the treatment itself should take no more than 15 minutes, there will be an assessment before the treatment so we recommend taking around 45 minutes in total for it to be complete. During the assessment, we will test your lips to see what type of injection is needed before strategically placing them into your lips. You should see results with this in the next 5 days after.
Post-care
- You might experience bruising the day after your procedure, which is entirely normal and typically subsides within 2-3 days. To mitigate this, refrain from consuming alcohol 24 hours before and after your treatment.
- Avoid applying heavy makeup or unnecessarily touching the treated area for 6 hours to minimise the risk of infection. Additionally, steer clear of Vitamin C, Retinol, AHA, and BHA skincare products for 24 hours post-treatment to allow for proper settling.
- Refrain from rubbing or massaging the treated area for 24 hours to decrease the chance of the treatment shifting. Maintain an upright position for 4 hours to prevent unintended migration of the treatment.
- Abstain from engaging in strenuous exercise such as weight training or cross-fit for 24 hours, as it may occasionally cause the treatment to move to unintended areas. Stay away from saunas, jacuzzis, or hot baths for 24 hours post-procedure, as the heat can result in treatment migration.
- Limit alcohol intake to reduce the risk of bruising, and avoid sleeping on the treated area the night following your treatment.
