After lip lift, scar got thick and raised (Photo)

July 6, 2016
Asked By:Suna in Vienna, VA

dear doctors, I had my lip lift two moths ago. At the first days my scar was normal, then I got three zit like pimples, but was not zit. I felt the thread poking. After that my scar got thick more on the right side. Left also but not that bad. I have done everything to avoid hypertrophic scar. I did not touch it, I gently put always sunblocker on it. Why did this happen? I also feel burning and wetness on daily basis.
