dark lips

Dear Patient: Dark lips can be because of many reasons – constant lip smacking, smoking, any trauma, etc. Skin over the lips is very sensitive and can be easily damaged. Though not many medications are applied due to its proximity to the oral cavity, there are moisturizing creams that can be applied. Application of herbal pastes is also recommended. For instance, a mixture of honey and few drops of lemon juice will help. You can visit a cosmetologist for further advise.
