A lip flip, as we perform at Aesthetify in Frankfurt, is a small procedure with a big effect. We inject a tiny amount of botulinum toxin into the edge of the upper lip area – very precisely and with great sensitivity. The muscles there relax, causing the upper lip to gently tilt outwards. It is precisely this effect – “flipping” – that ensures that the lip shows more surface area when smiling, appears more defined and at the same time conceals the gums. The result is a natural, harmonious look that does not restrict your facial expressions but subtly enhances them.
You may be asking yourself: What is the difference between a lip flip and classic lip injections with hyaluronic acid?
While hyaluronic acid treatment involves the targeted injection of volume into the lip, the lip flip has a completely different – more subtle – effect. Instead of a filler, we at Aesthetify in Frankfurt only use Botox® for the lip flip treatment. The toxin is not injected into the lip itself, but into the upper edge. The muscle relaxes, the lip rolls slightly outwards and thus appears fuller – without actually adding volume.
The result is particularly natural. It is ideal for anyone who does not want an “injected” look, but just a subtle improvement – for example, with a narrow upper lip or a dominant gummy smile.
At Aesthetify in Frankfurt, medical precision and aesthetic sensitivity come together. Our experienced practitioners specialize in minimally invasive procedures such as the lip flip and know exactly what is important: Naturalness, symmetry and a result that suits your face.
The lip flip treatment requires sensitivity, a deep understanding of the facial muscles and an exact dosage of botulinum toxin. Our Aesthetify experts in Frankfurt have all of this. We take the time for a detailed consultation, analyze your individual facial expressions and plan the treatment in such a way that it emphasizes your natural beauty and does not change it.
Whether you want a subtly fuller look or to correct a “gummy smile” – you are in the best hands with Aesthetify. We attach great importance to safety, aesthetics and your personal well-being. Because we know: Your smile deserves to be seen.
Before we start the lip flip treatment, we take the time for a personal consultation at Aesthetify in Frankfurt. We not only look at your lip shape, but also your facial expressions and your wishes. We describe the procedure to you and clarify any unanswered questions – honestly and clearly. The actual treatment is then uncomplicated and quick: in just a few minutes, a small amount of Botox® is injected specifically at the edge of the lips. Afterwards, you will be socially acceptable and can return to your everyday life straight away. The effect is not immediate, but develops over several days. The final result is visible after around two weeks.
How long the lip flip remains visible depends on several factors. On average, the result lasts between four and eight months. Individual aspects such as your metabolism, muscle activity and lifestyle play a role here. If you laugh a lot, do a lot of sport or simply genetically lose weight faster, you may need a refresher a little sooner. As soon as you notice that the effect is wearing off, you can easily make a new appointment for a lip-flip refresher at Aesthetify in Frankfurt.
In principle, the lip-flip is considered a very low-risk and safe treatment – especially when it is performed by experienced doctors such as those at Aesthetify in Frankfurt. Nevertheless, in rare cases there may be slight side effects, such as a slight feeling of pressure or small swellings at the injection site, which subside after a few days. Minimal, temporary asymmetries are also possible. These usually balance out completely on their own.
Our experts ensure that every procedure is carried out with the utmost precision and a dosage tailored to you in order to minimize risks as much as possible.
We will discuss the cost of a lip-flip with you at our appointment in Frankfurt. The exact price always depends on your individual findings and the recommended method. We charge according to the official scale of fees for doctors (GOÄ).
It all depends on the result you want to achieve. If you want a major change with a lot of volume in the lips, we recommend an injection with hyaluronic acid. If you are looking for a subtle change that looks very natural and covers the gums when you smile, you should consider a lip flip. In Frankfurt, we will check together in advance whether a lip flip with Botox® or a treatment with hyaluronic acid is more suitable for you. This will give you a result that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also suits you.
Immediately afterwards. There may be a little redness or swelling, but this is minimal and can be easily covered up. Many people go straight back to work or meet up with friends afterwards.
Not if it is carried out professionally by our specialists at Aesthetify. In the first few days, the lip movement may feel a little unfamiliar, but this quickly subsides and does not permanently impair speech or the smile.
The effect develops gradually. You will see the first changes after three to five days. The full result is usually visible after about two weeks.
Whether wrinkle injections, lip augmentation or contouring for your face. Hyaluronic acid is the all-purpose weapon for a long-term beauty experience.
