Bump after mucocele removal, procedure options? (photo)

Bryan1.3Aug 6, 2023
I first have my mucocele removal on 6 September 2020, had another surgery on 29 June 2022 as my doctor told me I have excessive salivary gland. As of now my lips is still "bumpy". Is there any procedure to do to make it normal? Should i engage in a Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery or ? Thanks in advance
