Gummy Smile Correction
Offered at your clinic

Lip Flip Montreal

The Lip Flip is an injectable treatment offered at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal that gently relaxes the muscle around the upper lip (the orbicularis oris). As this muscle relaxes, the upper lip rolls slightly outward, making a little more of the lip border visible when you smile. It can also help soften a gummy smile.

The Lip Flip is most often considered by patients who would like a subtle change to the upper lip without adding volume through dermal fillers. The effect is temporary, and a personalized plan is typically built around a few sessions per year depending on individual goals. It may also be planned alongside other treatments within a broader plan.

Because every patient’s anatomy, goals and medical history are different, the Lip Flip at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal always begins with a personalized medical consultation with a physician or healthcare professional. Together, you will assess whether this option is appropriate for you and discuss a realistic treatment plan, the expected results and the possible side effects. Book your personalized consultation with our team in Montreal.

What to Expect During Your Session

Step 1
Personalized Assessment
Your journey begins with a consultation with our expert injectors, who will assess your lip structure and discuss your aesthetic goals. This ensures a customized treatment plan that meets your unique needs.
Step 2
Take Pictures
We capture baseline photographs before treatment to track your transformation and showcase the results post-procedure.
Step 3
Numbing Gel Application
To ensure your comfort, a numbing gel is applied to the treatment area, minimizing any discomfort during the procedure.
Step 4
Proceed with Injections
Our experienced practitioners deliver precise injections into the targeted areas of your lips. The treatment typically takes 15–20 minutes, making it a convenient option for even the busiest schedules.
Step 5
Return to Normal Activities
With little to no downtime, you can resume your day immediately. Some swelling or mild redness may occur but typically subsides within 1–2 days.

The results of a Lip Flip generally last 6–8 weeks. For consistent and lasting enhancement, we recommend scheduling follow-up treatments as needed. Our team will guide you in creating a maintenance plan tailored to your aesthetic preferences.
