Difference between Lip Filler and a Lip Flip

At Eye Candy in Issaquah, WA, serving Seattle, Sammamish, Bellevue, and the surrounding areas, we offer a variety of aesthetic treatments to enhance your natural beauty. Among the most popular are lip fillers and lip flips. While both treatments aim to enhance the lips, they differ in techniques, results, and suitability. Let’s explore these options to help you decide which is right for you.

What is a Lip Filler?

Lip filler has a wide range of effects. From adding volume to simply helping hydrate, we fully customize each treatment. Lip filler consonants of hyluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, and is perfect for those looking to add a little glossiness to their lips. 

Benefits of Lip Fillers:

  1. Volume Enhancement: Ideal for subtly  enhancing lip size.

Shape and Definition: They enhance your shape and lip border definition.

  1. Durability: Results usually last between 6-12 months. And even longer once we begin to layer!
  2. Tailored Treatment: The amount and placement of filler can be customized.

What is a Lip Flip?

A lip flip involves injecting a neuromodulator, like Botox, Xeomin, or Dysport, into the muscle above the upper lip. It relaxes this muscle, allowing the lip to curl slightly upwards, giving an illusion of a fuller lip without adding volume.

Benefits of a Lip Flip:

  1. Natural Appearance: Offers a subtle enhancement.
  2. Quick and Minimal Discomfort: The procedure is fast with no downtime.
  3. Enhances Fillers: Can be combined with fillers for a complete rejuvenation.

Making the Right Choice:

The choice between lip fillers and a lip flip at Eye Candy depends on your desired outcome. For more volume, fillers are the best choice. If you are looking to soften and even prevent lip lines, a lip flip may help. It may also allow your filler to last a bit longer.
