How is scar tissue in the bottom lip of the mouth? i fell 3 weeks ago and i think i have scar tissue that need to be taken care of.

Time will take care: If your injured your lip, some amount of scar formation is expected. This usually takes longer time(1-3 months) to resolve. Technically there is nothing one can do to remove or eliminate scar tissue unless it is on the skin surface where cosmetic surgery can be an option for correction,.
