At Live Young Wellness Spa, we offer different treatments to enhance your natural lips. We specialize in lip flips and lip filler; while both aim to enhance the appearance of the lips, they involve different techniques and outcomes.
Lip Flips: A Subtle Enhancement
A lip flip is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the lips by creating the illusion of fuller, more voluminous lips without the use of traditional lip fillers. This technique involves injecting a small amount of botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox) into the upper lip muscles. By relaxing the muscles that control the upper lip, the lip flip causes the lip to gently roll upward, exposing more of the pink tissue and creating the illusion of a fuller pout. It is important to note that a lip flip does not add volume to lips.
Key Characteristics of a Lip Flip:
- Subtle enhancement: A lip flip offers a relatively subtle change, making it an excellent option for individuals who desire a natural-looking outcome.
- Duration: The effects of a lip flip typically last around 2 to 3 months, as Botox gradually wears off.
- Lip shape retention: A lip flip does not change the shape of the lips; it merely enhances their appearance by adjusting the position of the upper lip. Lip Fillers: Adding Volume and Shape
Key Characteristics of Lip Fillers:
- Noticeable volume increase: Lip fillers provide a more significant increase in lip volume compared to a lip flip, making them suitable for those seeking a more pronounced change. Longer-lasting results: The effects of lip fillers typically last between 6 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors.
- Shape customization: Lip fillers can be used to reshape the lips by adding volume to specific areas, such as the Cupid’s bow or the vermilion border.
Choosing the Right Option for You
The choice between a lip flip and lip fillers depends on your personal preferences, desired outcomes, and comfort level with the procedure. If you’re looking for a subtle enhancement and temporary results, a lip flip might be the ideal choice. On the other hand, if you’re seeking more noticeable volume and shape, lip fillers could be the way to go.
Before making any decisions, it’s crucial to consult with one of our medical professional’s at Live Young Wellness Spa who can assess your individual needs and provide expert advice on the best approach for achieving your desired look. They can guide you through the pros and cons of each procedure and help you understand which option aligns with your aesthetic goals.
