Many women and men are seeking to have fuller-looking lips without the use of volumising products. At Bella Plastic Surgery, we offer non-surgical treatment that specifically target the upper lip muscles, allowing the upper lip to gently roll outwards, resulting in a subtle lip flip.
Speak with Dr Eddy Dona about your suitability, the surgical options, recovery and costs. Our friendly team will call you back to discuss the procedure and schedule your appointment.
Cost depends on the area treated, product or device used, and the number of sessions required to reach the desired result. Dr Dona will provide a tailored quote during your consultation.
A non-surgical lip flip treatment is different to lip augmentation treatment. The lip flip treatment aims to enhance the appearance of the lips by exposing more of the upper lip which creates a temporary illusion of fuller lips.
The muscles around the mouth increase the upper lip to invert. We use products that inhibit the neurotransmitters, responsible for causing the upper lip muscle contraction.
The lip flip treatment can be an ideal option for patients who are seeking a very subtle enhancement to their lips.
The lip flip treatment in a non-invasive procedure is typically quick and minimally invasive. Results generally last for several weeks to a couple of months, depending on the amount of product being administered and individual factors such as muscle activity and metabolism.
If you cease the treatments, your muscles will return to normal, and your upper lip will return to its original state.
Normal activities can be resumed soon after your lip flip treatment. However, you should avoid strenuous exercise or massaging the area for the first 24 hours after treatment.
