Depends on cause: While chemical peels of the lips can be performed this is not a common practice.

Probably not: Properly selected and applied lip cosmetics may help.

Have you considered: Micro-pigmentation? This is, essentially, a tattoo process for the lips, and can also done for eyeliner and eyebrow pigmentation.
