Lip Flip – Subtle, Natural Enhancement

Sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference. If you’ve ever wished your upper lip looked just a little fuller or your smile appeared softer and more balanced, a lip flip may be the perfect solution.

At CōLAB Medical Aesthetics in Calgary, we specialize in subtle, natural enhancements — treatments that bring out your best features without making you look “done.” A lip flip is one of our most-requested procedures for patients who want a refreshed, natural-looking smile.

What Is a Lip Flip?

A lip flip is a quick, non-surgical treatment that uses Botox (or a similar neuromodulator) to relax the tiny muscles around your upper lip. By softening this muscle, the upper lip gently “flips” outward, creating the appearance of a fuller lip without adding volume.

Unlike lip fillers, which add volume with dermal filler, a lip flip relies on relaxing the muscle to subtly enhance your smile.

Benefits of a Lip Flip

✨ Relax the upper lip – Reduces tightness and creates a more relaxed look.
✨ Softer, fuller appearance – Without the use of filler.
✨ Enhance your smile – Especially for patients whose upper lip “disappears” when they smile.
✨ Quick & easy – Treatment takes about 10 minutes with minimal discomfort.
✨ Natural results – Perfect for anyone wanting a refreshed, subtle change.

Lip Flip vs. Lip Filler

One of the most common questions we hear is: “Should I get a lip flip or filler?”

• Lip Flip – Best for patients who want a subtle, natural enhancement without adding volume. Great for smiles where the upper lip curls inward.

• Lip Filler – Adds actual volume and shape to both lips, ideal for those wanting more dramatic results or contouring.

• Combination – Many patients choose both for maximum effect: filler for volume, lip flip for shape and balance.

At CōLAB Medical Aesthetics, we’ll help you decide which option (or combination) is right for you.
