Venous Lake On Lip, Could You Please Advise Me What I Should Do Next To Try To Remove It?

October 18, 2013
Asked By:Lisa60084 in United Kingdom, GB

I am a 47 year old woman. I have had quite a large Venous Lake on my lip for about 10 years, caused by trauma. I have had surgery twice on my lip to try to remove it. It came back almost straight away after the surgery. I now have some texture change on my lip due to the surgery and the venous lake got a bit bigger after surgery. Could you please advise me what I should do next to try to remove it. I live in the UK.
