How to get rid of a bubble scar off the lip? (Photo)

Question

6 years ago I squeezed a black head and ended up with a bubble scar on the lip. It's embarrassing and I feel that's all everyone looks at. Is there any method out there that will make my lips normal again!?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

This is a hypo pigmented scar and will likely need a combination of Plato's Scar Serum, laser resurfacing, and scar excision to blend out the scar. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Hard to tell from photo, but scar revision with excision of the scar and closure sounds like your best option. That part of the lip heals very well. Office procedure under local. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good Luck!

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

Scars on the lip can be difficult to revise where they are almost imperceptible. I doubt that this can be improved. Good luck.
