Lip Flip
A Lip Flip enhancement amplifies the natural shape of your lips and is a great treatment for a gummy smile. The treatment takes approximately 10 minutes. The pain is a minimal “pin prick” and no anesthetic is required. Immediately following your treatment, you may resume regular activities! This is a less invasive option for lip enhancements.
