Asked By:rosi84 in Belton, TX

I had my bottom lip pierced and I took it out after two months because it kind of got infected. The bump formed right after I took my piercing out. I didn't pay much attention until I notice when I smile it looks like I have a pimple on my bottom lip. So can sugery remove the scaring and make it less noticeable?
