After the wound penetrates, it will also destroy the tubules of the labial gland. When eating, the amount of saliva secretion will increase sharply, and it cannot be quickly ruled out that it will temporarily accumulate in the lips. After a period of time, it will slowly empty and the swelling will be reduced. New channels will be formed in a few days, and this will not happen.

Some patients responded that aloe cream would have better scar removal and wound healing effect, but I don't know where to buy it.

There must be inflammatory edema now, which will disappear slowly. Stitching will hurt your lips, especially in the days when stitches are removed. About 1 week after the stitches are removed, then the swelling will be obviously relieved. You can't get wet at that time after taking out stitches. You can wait until the small wound of taking out stitches is healed.

There will be a faint scar, which cannot be observed if you are not careful.
