Plump, well-defined lips have become a beauty staple, and cosmetic enhancements like lip fillers and lip flips are two of the most popular treatments available today. While both procedures enhance the lips, they achieve different results. Considering enhancing your pout? Chose the best option for you by learning the differences between lip filler and a lip flip!

LIP FILLER

Lip filler is a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting dermal fillers, typically made of hyaluronic acid, into the lips. This adds volume, enhances shape, and smooths out fine lines around the mouth. Here at Elite, we prefer to inject Restylane Refyne (if the target is lines and wrinkles) or Restylane Kysse (if the target is volume) for the best outcome.

Benefits:

Increases lip volume for a fuller appearance
Can be customized to achieve subtle or dramatic results
Enhances lip symmetry and definition
Provides hydration and a plump look
Results last 6-12 months

LIP FLIP

A lip flip is a minimally invasive treatment that uses Botox or a similar neurotoxin to relax the muscles around the upper lip. This causes the lip to “flip” slightly upward, making it appear fuller without adding actual volume.

Benefits:

Creates a subtle, natural-looking enhancement
Enhances the shape of the upper lip
Helps reduce a gummy smile by relaxing the upper lip muscles
Quick procedure with minimal downtime
Results last about 6-8 weeks

Which Option is Right for You?

Choose Lip Filler if: You want noticeable volume, more definition, or longer-lasting results.
Choose a Lip Flip if: You prefer a subtle enhancement, are new to lip treatments, or want to correct a gummy smile.

Some people even combine both treatments for a more balanced and natural result! If you’re unsure which option best suits your goals, book a consultation with one of our providers to determine the best approach for your lips.

At Elite Aesthetics, we specialize in both lip fillers and lip flips to help you achieve the perfect pout. Book online or contact us at 212-647-1930 to elevate your lips!

Testimonials

They Really Love Us

“Si vous chercher une perfectionniste vous trouverais la perle rare en Mariesa! Étant moi même dans le millieu de l art J ai reconnu tout de suite son talent unique ! Précise et à l écoute ,Je la recommande a tout le monde les yeux fermé.”

Yann, Paris

“Let me start by saying I have contemplated lip filler for a long time. My consultation with Mariesa was so educational and she was so patient with me and all of my questions. I’m so happy I decided to go with her after doing all my research on different injectors. I love my results and feel like she’s not just someone who does my lips but also my friend.”

Ashley, Manhattan

“Being a medical aesthetician, usually, if I have a problem with my skin, I can fix it myself. For whatever I can’t fix, there is one single person I trust entirely with my face professionally and that is Mariesa! I’m a tough critic and there is not a single flaw within her comforting personality, professionalism, work ethic, honest advice and an eye that will never steer you wrong. Words are one thing but her results speak for themselves. I have recommended her to just about everyone I know. Mariesa is the best and genuinely cares to make you a better you, not a different you!”

Marielle, West New York

“Going to Mariesa is where science and art combine to produce the results you want to achieve. And that “look” can only be achieved with a knowledgable injector. The “know how” is so critical and Mariesa knows the careful relationship of how manipulating one area will result in a change in another area. She does not rush through appointments and takes a balanced, well-planned approach which is priceless. Many doctors I have tried that advertise working on famous faces do not come close to Mariesa’s technique and interest to achieve results. Because of this detail and process, I leave my appointments feeling confident.”

Raquel, Manhattan

“Mariesa truly has made a major contribution to the way I feel every day. I’ve been getting injectable and cosmetic treatments for almost 10 years and she is by far the most skilled, educated, and humble provider. Her touch is very gentle and I’ve never even so much as bruised from any treatment she’s given me and I’ve been her patient for about 2 years. I’ll never let anyone touch my face but her forever!”

Christina, Brooklyn

Finding Mariesa was a blessing! I had been to plastic surgeons in the past that just didn’t listen to my concerns, or completely rushed the appointment. Mariesa really listens to every concern and formulates a plan for you- together! I felt so comfortable even from the first meeting. Her knowledge is so vast and she is so talented! She was honest when I asked her questions and never pushy. Her bedside manner is incredible and she is just a lovely person to be around. Whether you’re a first time patient or you are experienced with injectables- I would HIGHLY recommend Mariesa. She’s the perfect blend of everything you would hope for in an injector.

Tatiana, Manhattan

“I brought my mom to see Mariesa after a long time of trying to convince her that Botox wasn’t taboo. My mom was very nervous and Mariesa was super gentle and subtle with her treatment. My mom looks amazing and is now hooked just like me!”
