I got a lip flip and now I can’t close my mouth… my smile looks great though so it’s OK
THERE are endless amounts of procedures you can get on your lips these days.
But some do come with unexpected side effects.
One woman has shared a video online showing how her lip flip left her with a beak looking mouth.
She said: “Get a lip flip they said..”
Lis said: “I got a lip flip and I can’t close my mouth.”
She said: “I look like a bird, I honestly can’t close it.”
She said: “It looks nice when I smile though.”
A lip flip is a nonsurgical procedure that makes your lips appear fuller.
You get botulinum toxin injected into the corners of your mouth (oral commissures) and the edges of your lips (vermillion border).
A lip flip is usually considered the most natural option but it can take a bit of time for your lips to fully develop.
Lis’ video gained over 457,000 views.
Many viewers were rolling with laughter.

One commenter said: “It’s giving Sarah Paulson.”
Another commenter said: “I’d cry instantly.”
Surprisingly Lis’ comments section was full of viewers saying they had the same problem.
One said: “So Funny. I got a lip flip and can no longer drink through a straw but I am loving my smile so totally worth it!”
Another commenter said: “The same thing happened to me. I called mine a “beak”. But it does fade!!!”
Lis even shared a follow up video.
She said: “Update: it’s getting worse.”
In the video she is seen struggling to drink through a straw.
