Lip Flip Botox in Dubai

Estelaza Clinic offers Lip Flip Botox in Dubai, a subtle, non-surgical treatment that creates a fuller, more defined upper lip — without dermal filler.

Using small, precise doses of FDA-approved botulinum toxin, our DHA-licensed medical team relaxes the muscle around the upper lip, allowing more of it to gently roll outward for a softer, poutier smile. Performed at our Dubai Silicon Oasis clinic, the treatment takes just minutes with no downtime, making it a popular lunch-break option for a natural lip enhancement.

What Is a Lip Flip?

A Lip Flip is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that uses small amounts of Botox to relax the orbicularis oris muscle — the muscle that controls movement around the mouth. Rather than adding volume like a dermal filler, a Lip Flip works by relaxing this muscle so the upper lip gently rolls or “flips” outward, revealing more of the pink part of the lip and creating the appearance of a fuller pout.

This makes it a good option for people who want a subtle enhancement to their smile without committing to filler, or who want to soften a gummy smile by reducing how much gum shows when smiling.

Lip Flip vs. Lip Filler: A Lip Flip changes the shape and visibility of the lip through muscle relaxation, while lip filler adds physical volume using hyaluronic acid. Some patients choose to combine both for enhanced fullness and definition — your doctor can advise the best approach for your goals during consultation.

how it works

How the Lip Flip Procedure Works

  1. Consultation — Your doctor assesses your lip shape, smile pattern, and muscle activity to determine the right dose and injection points.
  2. Preparation — The area around the mouth is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort.
  3. Injection — A small amount of Botox is injected at the corners of the mouth and along the cupid’s bow, using a fine needle. The procedure typically takes 10–15 minutes.
  4. Recovery — You can resume normal activities immediately. Avoid touching, massaging, or applying heat to the area for the first day or so.

What Results Can You Expect?

  • Onset: Results generally become noticeable within about a week
  • Duration: Effects typically last 2–4 months, depending on individual metabolism and mouth activity — shorter than dermal filler
  • Look: A softer, subtly fuller upper lip and more visible pink lip tissue, with natural movement preserved — you’ll still be able to smile, talk, and eat normally
  • Maintenance: Many patients schedule a touch-up every 3–4 months to maintain results

Good Candidate

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for a Lip Flip if you:

  • Have a thin upper lip that seems to disappear when you smile
  • Want a fuller-looking pout without adding volume
  • Are self-conscious about a gummy smile
  • Prefer a subtle, natural enhancement over dermal filler
  • Are in good general health with no known allergies to botulinum toxin

A Lip Flip is not recommended for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or with certain neuromuscular conditions. A consultation with our medical team will confirm whether a Lip Flip, lip filler, or a combination of both best suits your goals.

What to Expect:

After Treatment

  • Small bumps at injection sites are normal and usually settle quickly
  • Mild swelling, tenderness, or small bruises may occur and typically resolve within a couple of days
  • Avoid touching, massaging, or applying pressure to the treated area
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and hot showers/tubs for the first day, as heat can affect how the treatment settles
  • Results are typically visible within about a week
