Hello Dr. Lam, I love my new lips the shape is perfect, thank you! It has been almost 3 weeks since I was in for the lip reduction and one side is healed completley, flat, softened no numbness..and the other side still has a bit of a puckered scar underneath as if it hasn't fully healed. It isn't flattened yet. I was just concerned if this will heal like the other side. It isn't noticeable at all and the lip shape is beautiful. Just wondering if this is normal, thank you.
cool, yes this is normal. lips can take several months to soften out. however, there is always a chance for a minor irregularity. let's follow it. best, sml
