What Can I Have Done to Have the Hypertrophic Scar Tissue on my Lip Flattened or Removed? (photo)

About 2 weeks ago I had my lip busted open, my canine tooth punctured my lip and now I have a big lump of scar tissue left behind. I am extremely self conscience now and this has made me want to hide away in seclusion because it looks like I have herpes on my lip 24/7. It has honestly affected my social life. I need a solution to this so I can start feeling and being myself again. Hope someone can give me great advice
