Left Lower Lip White Bump Scar

I had a deep lip laceration on my lower lip 3 month's ago. I didn't receive stitches & was applying vitamin e vigorously after it healed, (a month after the incident). The too poetiin of the lower lip healed fine but the lower tip reflected a white bump scar. I saw a surgeon & dermatologist both recommended surgery with a few stitches but also advised there maybe risk again of scar tissue. I've been applying oil of oregano, 70 carvacrol, apple cider vinegar, "the mother", (is acid-like, so can see it's gradually drying the scar up. I also apply tea tree oil, which has helped too. The combination has proven to be effective. Oil of oregano is about $20, sold at health food stores, apple cider & tea tree oil both are about $10 each, a lot cheaper than surgery. Will post my final pic. for comparison, once I see it gone, which I'm hopeful based on what I'm seeing so far. Natural remedies are the best alternative to healing if possible.:)

I'd like to also add, the dermatologist advised to massage the scar so i've used my tweezers grasping them together while applying strong pressure to the scar, rubbing in a zig zag motion. This application has also helped in breaking up the scar tissue.

I am curious what is the order of application of the various remedies that you mentioned? Also, was the lip laceration outside or inside of your month? I have similar situation, but the laceration is inside my lower lips, and it seems like the remedy such as tea tree oil would be a bit unpleasant to taste?

Hopefully you all can see a difference, but it's finally healing, almost un-noticeable. I've been applying g pressure & massaging the area but not on a daily basis. The scar tissue has broken up.

Can you still break up scar tissue after years?

I have tried everything I can to reduce the look of my scar. I've had it for about 11 years now. I was in a biking accident as a kid and bit a chunk out of my lip also resulting in breaking half my tooth :(

I'm glad you have found something that works. I will give it a try. Thank you!

Also be sure to wear a high SPF ChapStick, exposure to sun will make it more prominent.
