Hello,
Ketocote and contractubex can decrease redness, hardness, elevation, itch and pain associated with scars. It is very effective for scars resulting from surgery, trauma, or burns. However before using it on the thin and delicate skin of lips, it is advisable to use it under the advise of a dermatologist.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Hello,
The photographs are not very clear to show any scar. However for any kind of lip scarring, smoking and chewing, biting or pricking the skin of the lips should be avoided. The most effective solution for treating is alexandrite and ND-Yag Q-Switched laser treatment. Please discuss these options with your dermatologist.
