Reconstructive Surgery to Repair Lip Line?

September 26, 2009
Asked By:usaid in MN

Dear Drs, I was in an accident a few years ago. My upper lip was damage extensively  to the point where it looks like its burned. The problem with the upper lip is the uneven lip line (new reconstructive surgery is necessary) plus the scarring. Is it possible to eliminate or reduce the scarring? I'm search of the excellent doctor.
