Hello,
Cessation of smoking is one of the remedies to treat smoker’s lips. Then applying regular sunscreen lip balms and use lip products with anti oxidants. Also drink plenty of water to keep yourself rehydrated. My advice would be to consult a cosmetologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
