Neuromodulator Treatments: Lip Flip and Perioral Lines

Red background

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.
