I recently had revision surgery on my lower lip due to a fall one year ago (the bottom lip was hanging off and completely split through). The lip was misaligned at the vermillion boarder on the lower lip and the revision surgery correctly this. However I now have a noticeable vertical band running through and difference in volume. What are the options to have this corrected?
