Asked By:j_garcia562 in Los Angeles, CA

When I was in 5th grade I got punched on my lip on the bottom right. My tooth cut through my lip and it was swollen. It healed but it left me this scar on my lip so every time I talk its kinda noticeable. I wanna know what can I do to fix this. Is their some type of way I can make my lips even again. I could feel a ball on my lip if I bite it.
