What You'll Get

The Lip Flip What Is the Lip Flip Procedure ? Before the Procedure For 3 to 4 days before the procedure, you’ll need to avoid alcohol and blood thinners like aspirin, which can make swelling worse. During the Procedure Here are a few things to know about the lip flip procedure itself: It should take only around 10 minutes. The doctor likely won’t numb your lips beforehand, because the procedure isn’t very painful. The doctor will inject Botox into the centre and corners of your upper lip. After the Procedure Following a lip flip, you’ll be able to resume most daily activities, though your upper lip may feel slightly numb and look swollen. Here are some post-procedure tips: Avoid smoking in the days after the procedure because it may increase the risk of infection. Keep from rubbing or massaging your lips, which can cause the Botox to spread. Try to sleep on your back for a few days so your lips don’t press against your pillow. What To Avoid Here is a lift of things you should avoid after your Lip Flip treatment Stop Smoking Smoking can increase the risk of infection, so it’s important not to smoke immediately after getting lip fillers. Avoid Alcohol Alcohol acts a blood thinner, and should be avoided for at least 24 hours after getting lip fillers. Alcohol can cause inflammation, increase the likelihood of bruising, and make swelling worse. It’s also a good idea to avoid alcohol a few days before your appointment. Don't Fly Your doctor will likely recommend that you wait at least a week after your treatment before flying. This is because the air pressure in a plane can make swelling and bruising worse.
