Is there anything i can do about the appearance of my lip after dog attack? (photo)

Question

4 years ago i went through a dog attack to my lips. Since then i’ve gotten two scar revision procedures which helped the overall appearance a little bit but due to scar tissue (i believe?) the one side of my lip that was effected in the bite looks way rougher. it’s one of my biggest insecurities about it, i was wondering if there’s anything that can be done to make it appear smoother?

Thank you for posting your question here !My answer will be based on the limited information and pictures provided, for a more detailed and personalized plan I would recommend consulting with your surgeon in person.
I am sorry you had to deal with those issues , It is hard to see what you mean by roughness based purely on the pictures provided. There are many things that can me done to improve the appearance of the area , if texture is the issue , some lasers can be used to improve the texture , if difference in volume is the issue fat grafting or filler can be used to make things more symmetrical . Other treatments can include tattooing faint areas to match color etc....I hope this helps, best of luck!
