I collided with my friends Golden Retriever (don't ask) And it put my teeth through my bottom lip. I have a large ball of scar tissue on the inside, but am most concerned with the scar left on the outside just below my lip line. It has two small raised parts and it very thick. I am wondering if there is anything to help and if it can be treated separately from the inside or if I should have them both treated. It also is painful sometimes after weeks of healing.

Answer: Lip scar Sometimes scars on the lip can be improved with massage only. Sometimes and injection may be needed or a laser or actual surgical revision. You do have many options. Most scars improve over months to years so waiting it out may also be an option. But first, go see a dermatologist in your area and ask them what appears to be going on and what can be done.

Answer: Lip Scar Management Common scenario seen by Plastic surgeons. A collision in which the lower lip is wrapped over a lower incisor tooth which then punctures through it. In your case, it APPEARS like the wound was not treated by a Plastic surgeon. the key is to sharply cut away the wound edges to get rid of any contused margins, copiously wash the wound to remove as much of the bacteria as possible. The, repair the wound (and tunnel) in several layers.
