Lip Flip
Subtle Enhancement. Noticeable Confidence.
A Lip Flip is a non-surgical treatment designed to enhance the appearance of a fuller lip by relaxing muscles around the mouth. At Bright Eyes & Face Medspa in Tannersville, PA, this popular procedure uses a small amount of neurotoxin such as Xeomin® or Dysport® to help the top lip roll slightly upward. This gives the illusion of added volume without fillers or downtime. It’s perfect for those looking to enhance their natural features in a subtle, controlled way.
If you’re hoping for a more confident smile with minimal effort, a Lip Flip could be the right choice for you. Contact Bright Eyes & Face Medspa today to book your consultation and take the first step toward a soft, natural-looking enhancement.
Xeomin®
Xeomin® is a clean-form injectable that works by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles around the lips. It contains no unnecessary proteins, making it a great option for those who prefer a more purified product. Results typically appear within a few days and last up to three months.
Dysport®
Dysport® spreads slightly more than other neurotoxins, which can be beneficial for broader treatment areas like the upper lip. It works quickly often within 2–3 days and helps soften movement while still allowing natural expressions.

Procedure Overview
Before your appointment, a brief consultation will help determine if the Lip Flip is the best option for your goals.
- Step 1: Personalized Consultation
Your provider will discuss your smile, lip shape, and what you’re hoping to achieve. This helps tailor the treatment specifically to you.
- Step 2: Gentle Skin Preparation
The area around your lips is cleaned to ensure a safe and smooth procedure. Since it’s quick and causes minimal discomfort, numbing is usually not necessary.
- Step 3: Precise Injections
A small amount of neurotoxin is carefully injected into the targeted muscles above the upper lip to create the “flip” effect.
- Step 4: Simple Aftercare and Recovery
You’ll receive easy-to-follow instructions and can return to most daily activities right away. Visible results may start in 2–4 days, with full effects in about one week.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do lip flip results last?
Most results last between 2 and 3 months. Because the dosage is small and the muscle treated is delicate, this treatment is ideal for subtle, short-term enhancements. For longer-lasting results, routine maintenance is recommended.
Is the lip flip painful?
The treatment involves only a few tiny injections, and most clients describe it as a slight pinch. Numbing isn’t typically needed, but it can be offered for extra comfort. Any discomfort fades quickly after the procedure.
Can I still move my lips and smile normally?
Yes. The lip flip is designed to relax just the right amount of muscle without affecting full lip movement. You’ll still be able to talk, smile, and eat as usual but with a bit more visible lip showing.
How does a lip flip differ from lip fillers?
A lip flip uses a neurotoxin to gently relax muscles and roll the lip outward, while fillers add volume directly to the lips. If you want a subtle change in appearance, the lip flip is a great option. Fillers may be better for more dramatic fullness.
