Dysport and Lip Flips: What They Can Do for You

If you’ve ever wished for a more youthful, refreshed look or a subtly enhanced smile, you’ve likely come across the terms “Dysport” and “lip flip.” These non-surgical cosmetic treatments are gaining popularity for their ability to deliver noticeable yet natural results—without the need for downtime. At True Rejuvenation, we believe in empowering our patients with knowledge so you can make confident decisions about your wellness and appearance. Here’s everything you need to know about Dysport and lip flips, and how they can help you feel your best.

What Is Dysport?

Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable that temporarily relaxes specific facial muscles to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. Like Botox, Dysport is made from botulinum toxin type A, but it has unique properties that set it apart. Dysport is often chosen for its ability to spread more evenly across larger areas, making it especially effective for treating forehead lines and crow’s feet.

What Can Dysport Accomplish?

• Softens dynamic wrinkles: Dysport targets lines caused by facial expressions—think frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet.

• Prevents new wrinkles: By relaxing muscles, Dysport can help prevent deepening of existing lines and the formation of new ones.

• Quick treatment, minimal downtime: Most sessions take just 10–20 minutes, and you can return to daily activities almost immediately.

• Natural-looking results: When administered by an experienced provider, Dysport delivers smooth, refreshed results—never frozen or artificial.

What Is a Lip Flip?

A lip flip is a quick, minimally invasive treatment that uses a small amount of neuromodulator (like Dysport) injected into the muscles around the upper lip. This relaxes those muscles, allowing the upper lip to gently roll outward, creating the appearance of a fuller, more defined lip without adding volume with fillers.

What Can a Lip Flip Accomplish?

• Enhances the upper lip: The lip flip subtly lifts and defines the upper lip, making it look fuller and more shapely.

• Reduces a "gummy" smile: By relaxing the muscles that pull the upper lip upward, a lip flip can help minimize excessive gum exposure when you smile.

• Softens vertical lip lines: Smoothing the muscle activity can reduce fine lines above the lip.

• Natural, understated results: A lip flip is ideal for those who want a gentle enhancement rather than dramatic volume.

Dysport vs. Dermal Fillers: What’s the Difference?

While both Dysport and fillers can enhance your appearance, they work in different ways. Dysport relaxes muscles to smooth wrinkles and subtly change lip shape (as in a lip flip), while fillers add volume to lips or cheeks. Many patients choose to combine both treatments for a balanced, personalized result.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

If you’re noticing fine lines or want to enhance your smile without surgery or significant downtime, Dysport and lip flips may be right for you. These treatments are suitable for:

• Adults seeking wrinkle reduction

• Patients who want to address a gummy smile

• Anyone looking for subtle lip enhancement

• Those who prefer a natural look over dramatic changes

What to Expect During Treatment

Both Dysport and lip flips are quick, in-office procedures. After a brief consultation to discuss your goals, your provider will use a fine needle to inject Dysport into targeted muscles. Most patients describe the sensation as a small pinch. Results from Dysport typically appear within 2–3 days, while lip flip effects can be seen in about a week.

How Long Do Results Last?

• Dysport: Effects usually last 3–4 months, depending on your metabolism and treatment area.

• Lip Flip: Results last about 2–3 months. Maintenance treatments are recommended to keep your look fresh.
