Upper Lip/Smokers Lines/Lip Flip
There are a number of ways to treat upper lip lines. Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to soften these lines. The way to treat is by injecting a small amount of anti-wrinkle into the upper lip (orbicularis oris muscle). It’s normally treated with 4 small injections across the upper lip. This in turn relaxes the muscle around your upper lip, which makes your lip “flip” upward a tiny bit and appears larger than normal. The lip flip is a popular procedure that makes your lips look fuller without increasing the volume of your lips.

There is a detailed consultation with the cosmetic nurse or doctor to discuss treatment options based on the patient expectations. During the consultation the cosmetic nurse or doctor will assess your face, note asymmetry, and take photographs to document your cosmetic journey.
Anti-wrinkle treatments are generally well tolerated. You will notice the product taking effect 2-4 days after the procedure, and full effect will be visible 2 weeks after the treatment.
The most common side effects include: local irritation or redness and mild to moderate swelling. Although rare, bruising can occur. If it does remember it is temporary and can be covered with make up 24 hours after the treatment.
