Overview
Increasing the volume of the lips is predominantly performed with soft tissue fillers. However, the appearance of an increased lip volume can also be achieved by performing the neuromodulator-based lip flip injection technique. This technique relies on the deep understanding of the anatomy of the orbicularis oris muscle. This video provides such a deep clinical and anatomic knowledge which can also be used to understand the treatment for perioral lines with neuromodulators.
