A member asked:

My bottom lip is uneven due to blister removal with a laser and now scar tissue, can this be fixed by a plastic surgeon?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Give it time to heal: I would definitively give it time for the scar tissue to mature prior to introducing more scar with a plastic surgery procedure.
