Just had surgical removal of retention cyst on lower lip. whenever i look in the mirror now, the swelling worries me. my lip is bent downwards.

Still swollen: If it is very recent, then it should improve. I doubt there is much to worry about. Give your surgeon a call. He/she knows exactly what they did and can answer your question.
