Lip Flip in Newcastle

A lip flip is a subtle technique for patients whose upper lip curls inward when smiling, making it look thinner than it is. Tiny, precise doses relax the muscle at the lip border, allowing the lip to gently roll outward — no filler, no added volume.

About This Treatment

The result is understated: a slightly fuller-looking upper lip and a softer smile line, while your lip stays completely natural in movement and feel. It's popular with younger patients who want enhancement without filler, and with patients combining it with a gummy smile plan.

At Dr Matla Aesthetics in Newcastle, your smile pattern and lip movement are assessed first, and the difference between a lip flip and lip filler is explained clearly so you choose the right option.

Common Questions

Patients often ask…

In some patients, a gummy smile happens because the upper lip lifts strongly when smiling. A carefully planned wrinkle relaxing treatment may help reduce excessive upper-lip lift in selected cases.

At Dr Matla Aesthetics Clinic in Newcastle, the smile pattern, lip movement, teeth position, and facial proportions are assessed before treatment, because gummy smile can have different causes. Conservative planning is important — over-treatment can affect lip movement, speech, or smile shape.

  • May reduce excessive gum show
  • Supports a more balanced smile
  • Conservative dosing required
  • Maintains natural lip movement

Every patient should be assessed during consultation for suitability, expected outcome, possible side effects, aftercare, and realistic treatment planning. Results vary between patients.
