How Can I Get Rid of a Scar/bump on my Lip? (photo)

August 22, 2012
Asked By:kaytdietz

About 7 years ago I was playing freeze tag and I ran into one of my friends. My mouth hit his forehead and one of my teeth pierced through my lip. The whole tooth came out with the root. Thank goodness it was a baby tooth. My lip was all bloody and so I went to the ER and they patched it up with 5 stitches. Now there is a bump there. Im getting to the part in my life where I want it gone. How can I get rid of it?

Indented Scar on Nose Tip, What Treatment Can I Do to Improve It? (photo)
