Lip flip for subtle, natural lip changes
If you’re looking for a way to change the appearance of your lips without altering their volume, a lip flip is an option. Performed in Melbourne and Sydney, this treatment offers a subtle way to potentially lift, define, and refine your lips while maintaining a natural appearance.
What is a lip flip?
A lip flip is a non-invasive treatment that lifts and shapes the upper lip. The procedure focuses on preserving lip height when speaking and smiling.
Potential benefits of lip flip treatments
Lip flips offer a variety of potential advantages:
- Fuller-looking lips without changing size: The treatment can lift and define the upper lip for a subtle change.
- Softens vertical lip lines: Fine lines around the lips may become less noticeable.
Post-treatment and results
After your lip flip, you may notice a subtle lift, increased definition, and a smoother lip contour when speaking and smiling. The treatment can also prevent upper lip thinning when smiling. Most patients notice the full effect within days to weeks, with results usually lasting a few months.

A lip flip is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that may help to reduce lip thinning, creating a fuller, more balanced appearance without changing the natural volume of your lips.
A lip flip works in various ways depending on the approach used. Some methods relax the obicularis oris muscle of your upper and lower lips. This aims to reduce the tension applied to your lips, giving them a fuller appearance without changing the volume. It also reduces top lip thinning when smiling. Others focus on reenforcing the intrinsic structure of your lips.
A lip flip changes the appearance of your lips by relaxing the lip muscles or supporting lip structure, which reduces the appearance of thinning when you smile.
Treatments for lip volume, on the other hand, increase the physical fullness of the lips. These treatments make the lips plumper and can change the overall size and projection of the lips.
Yes, a lip flip can be performed at the same time as treatments that increase lip volume.
A lip flip is an option for people with the following concerns:
- Have a small top or bottom lip
- Notice your lips look thin when you smile
- Are interested in treatments for lip volume, but want to try a conservative option first
- Want a slightly fuller look without adding lip volume
Suitability is subject to an in person consultation.
Yes, a lip flip is not just for treating the top lip. It can treat your bottom lip with the aim of increasing its vertical height.

A lip flip typically involves that targeted application of specific treatments to the top (and sometimes bottom) lip.
Depending on the treatment methods, a lip flip may take 2-20 minutes.
People’s experiences of discomfort vary, but most report only mild, brief discomfort with a lip flip.
Most treatments involve the use of numbing to minimise discomfort.
The time it takes to see results from a lip flip depends on the approach used, however most methods give the full effect in days to weeks.
The longevity of a lip flip depends on the specific details of the treatment, but most people find the effects fade over a few months.
After a lip flip, your lips will appear subtly fuller with a more defined shape. Mild swelling or tenderness may occur but usually settles within a day.
A lip flip is a low-risk, minimally invasive treatment. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, and include slight redness and swelling. Other risks are rare, and include issues like infections.
The risks of a lip flip are minimal and usually temporary, including slight swelling, redness, or mild bruising. Rarely, some may experience uneven movement or a subtle asymmetry while the lips settle. Other remote risks include infections.
