NeuLogics Wellness & Medical | Lip Flip vs. Fillers

Shared by NeuLogics Wellness & Medical.

 

Are you looking for a nonsurgical option for an enhanced look? If you are considering dermal fillers or a Botox lip flip, there are a few things to think about before making a final decision. Both treatment options are quick and less invasive than surgery. However, they also come with some differences, including the length of time that the results last, the price, and the look they produce. 

While they are often used individually, in some cases, a combination of a lip flip and fillers can provide the most optimal results. The experts at NeuLogics Wellness & Medical in Mount Pleasant South Carolina have a lot of good advice on the subject. 

 

Lip Flip 

A lip flip creates the appearance of a fuller upper lip with a more defined cupid’s bow.  According to NeuLogics Dr Travis Love, there is also a reduction in lines around the mouth. While the price can vary depending on what you would like done, the entire procedure is more affordable than getting fillers and usually only takes less than twenty minutes to complete. There is no need for recovery time.  

What defines a lip flip is the use of Botox. It is made from Botulinum Toxin, which partially paralyzes muscles, creating a smoother and more defined appearance. 

The procedure at NeuLogics Mt Pleasant includes the injection of Botox into the upper lip, causing it to “flip” upward and create an appearance of fullness. Some of the results are immediately visible, with full results seen in approximately four to six days. Those results will remain from two to five months, making a lip flip an ideal choice for anyone who wants to test the waters and see how they will like the look of more defined lips.

Fillers

Dermal fillers are a somewhat more expensive procedure and take a little longer to do (usually between twenty and thirty minutes). Like a Botox lip flip, NeuLogics Dr Travis Love notes that fillers can help define features and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. However, the results can last from six months to a year, and they restore and add volume to the lips in a way that Botox cannot. 

There are a variety of fillers on the market, with some of the most popular options containing natural non-animal-based hyaluronic acid, a type of filler that adds both volume and moisture to targeted areas. 

The NeuLogics Mt Pleasant Juvéderm line includes:

  • Juvéderm XC
  • Juvéderm Ultra XC
  • Juvéderm Voluma XC

NeuLogics Mt Pleasant also uses these Restylane products:

  • Restylane
  • Restylane Silk
  • Restylane Lyft
  • Restylane Refyne
  • Restylane Defyne

 

Key differences

While a lip flip creates the illusion of a larger upper lip, dermal fillers add actual volume. The type of treatment you choose will probably depend on the effect level you would like and the original size of your lips. Other aspects to consider include the amount of time you would like the effect to last, the price, and if you need the effect to be immediate. While a lip flip takes a week for full results to be seen, fillers offer a substantial immediate visible effect.  

A lip flip also requires no recovery time, while a patient who has fillers may take several days to recover after treatment. However, there is still a potential for bruising to occur with either treatment, so expect some downtime the first time just to be on the safe side. 

If you’re ready to take the plunge or still trying to decide, book a consultation with NeuLogics Wellness & Medical in Mount Pleasant South Carolina.

NeuLogics Wellness & Medical | The lip flip

Image
Shared by NeuLogics Wellness & Medical. A lip flip is a non-surgical way to achieve the look of a fuller upper lip with a perfectly defined cupid’s bow. By injecting Botox (botulinum toxin A), a doctor can relax the muscles above the lip. This causes the upper lip to curl, or flip, more upwards instead of being held down by what is normally a tense muscle. By doing this, the lip flip creates the illusion of a fuller and bigger lip without the price of more expensive fillers. Despite it only now becoming mainstream, Dr Travis Love of NeuLogics Wellness & Medical in Mount Pleasant South Carolina is an expert at the procedure and has been doing the Lip Flip since 2009. Why get a lip flip? If you’re like most people, your lips are probably on the smaller side. When you have small lips, it’s hard not to dwell on them or wonder what they would look like if they were fuller. It’s no wonder so many people are in search of ways to enhance them. Fortunately, there are a number of meth...
