Asked By:Inventive668933 in Thousand Oaks, California

I had a severe lip lasceration 7 years ago. My the scar ruins my lip symmetry but my lip as a whole also seems to be enlarged and protrudes a lot. There are balls of what feels like scar tissue in my inner lip next to the scar, aswell as scar tissue where the stitching was. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
