Does a lip flip hurt?
A lip flip is a short and generally painless treatment. However, we do offer topical numbing cream or happy gas for patients who are concerned about pain tolerance.
At Contour Clinics, we ensure that your experience with us is a smooth one and suitable to your comfort levels.
How long does a lip flip last?
A lip flip typically lasts three months post-procedure, and results will gradually fade. This timeline may vary among individual patients.
Are lip flips safe?
All medical procedures carry risk. The risks of a lip flip procedure as they relate to your own unique circumstances will be discussed at your complimentary consultation with our experienced cosmetic clinicians.
Typical risks may include, but are not limited to:
- Swelling or redness: Typically mild and temporary, resolving naturally within a short period.
- Bruising: Minor bruising can occur at treatment sites, usually resolving gradually over days to weeks.
- Tenderness or discomfort: Mild discomfort or tenderness can be experienced but is generally short-lived.
What can I expect after my lip flip treatment?
After your treatment, small bruises at the treatment site may appear for 1 or 2 days with some subtle redness and swelling. Cosmetic effects can begin to occur around day 3, with full results visible at day 14.
There is no guarantee your treatment course will follow the same timeframe. Your cosmetic doctor will explain expected time frames as they relate to you and your treatment during your consultation.
