Moreover, earlier this year, Ashley opened up about getting breast implants. “I did get a breast augmentation surgery yesterday,” she shared in a February Instagram Story video. “I was holding off on [the surgery]… I’ve been wanting it [since] after I breastfed Dylan, and things were hanging down to my waist. But I was told that if I got any sort of augmentation that I would not be able to breastfeed if I had children in the future. So that deterred me.”

More recently, Ashley took on another cosmetic procedure, this time focusing on her lips. 

Ashley Darby reveals she got a "lip flip" 

Hopping on her Instagram Stories on October 11 to share the details of her latest beauty move. 

"So I decided today to get a little lip flip," Ashley began in the video. "I have never had Botox in any capacity ever, but this wonderful makeup artist whom I love and cherish so much...he suggested that I might look cute with a little lip flip because...I do want fuller lips. I use lip plumper lip gloss and stuff." 

She continued: "I went to Dr. Chang's office today for my check-up...it's been eight months since my breast augmentation. I also talked to [the physician's assistant] about getting it and [...] I said, 'Sign me up!' So yeah. I got a lip flip today. We'll see how it's gonna be drinking out of a straw and stuff but...I'm sure it's gonna look so cute!"

What is a "lip flip?"

According to the Cleveland Clinic's website, a lip flip is a "nonsurgical procedure" that uses botulinum toxin injections in the corners of your mouth to make your lips appear fuller. The injections "[relax] the muscles around your upper lip," which in turn creates a "flip" upward, making them appear a little larger than normal. 

In contrast, lip fillers use hyaluronic acid in certain or all parts of the lips to add volume. Per Cleveland Clinic's website, a lip flip can "generally look more natural than lip fillers."
