A subtle upper lip enhancement with no filler required. Precise, natural-looking results in minutes.
Not every lip enhancement requires filler. For patients who want a more defined upper lip without added fullness, the lip flip is one of the most elegant solutions available. At INJX by NAT Aesthetics, a lip flip is performed with the same proportional thinking and care that defines every injectable service we offer.
A lip flip uses a small amount of neurotoxin injected into the orbicularis oris muscle just above the upper lip. This relaxes the muscle slightly, allowing the upper lip to roll gently outward and appear fuller and more defined without any volume being added. The result is subtle, natural, and entirely reversible as the neurotoxin wears off over time.
We offer lip flips in Cranford and Morristown, NJ.
The lip flip requires an exceptionally light touch and a thorough understanding of lip anatomy and muscle function. Natia Rufolo, FNP, NP-C, is board-certified through the AANP and consistently ranked among the Top 100 Aesthetic Injectors in America, bringing that depth of expertise to every lip treatment at this practice.
At INJX by NAT, lip treatments are always planned in the context of the surrounding face. The relationship between the upper lip, lower lip, and overall facial proportions guides every recommendation, ensuring the result looks harmonious rather than isolated.
The lip flip requires careful dosing to avoid affecting the ability to speak, drink, or use a straw naturally. INJX by NAT providers are trained in conservative, precise neurotoxin placement that delivers a beautiful result without compromising everyday lip function.
Both Natia Rufolo, FNP, NP-C, and Cassandra Austin, RN, are consistently ranked among the Top 100 Aesthetic Injectors in America. Patients receiving a lip flip at INJX by NAT benefit from that nationally recognized level of skill at every appointment.
The lip flip involves virtually no downtime. Mild redness or small bumps at the injection site resolve within a few hours. Patients should avoid touching the treated area and strenuous exercise for the first four hours. Most patients return to their normal routine immediately following their appointment.
When dosed correctly, most patients experience minimal functional impact. Some notice slight temporary changes in lip movement during the first week as the neurotoxin settles.
A lip flip relaxes the muscle above the lip for subtle eversion without adding volume. Lip filler adds physical volume and shape. Many patients benefit from combining both.
