Avatar m tn Im a 17 year old asian male with dark lips. I was born with lighter lips but i have neglected them when i was younger. I have always peeled and ate the skin of my lips (I know disgusting lol) when i was younger and they were chapped. Everytime i went to the dentists, when i'd have my teeth pulled and they used anesthesia i'd take very hot water and test on my lips to see how i can not feel the pain. I never really cared about my lips from about 5 years old to 13.

Avatar m tn You might want to see your family doctor. It may be something as simple as using a chapstick on your lips to keep your lips moist. Some medications cause dry lips. Also if you don't drink enough water, you lips become dry. I would think your doctor can advise you best.
Avatar n tn You can also apply a paste of turmeric powder, lemon juice and milk cream on your lips to make the dark colour of your lips normal.

Avatar m tn To prevent blackness of the lips, smoking and chewing, biting or pricking the skin of the lips should be avoided. The most effective solution for treating dark lips is alexandrite and ND-Yag Q-Switched laser treatment. Please discuss these options with your 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.
Avatar n tn Kaur, Thanks very much for your advise, let me take B-complex for a while and revert to you on how i feel, I just though i should let you know that on the lower lips ?(inner) there are minor dark spots (just 3 or 4 ) let me know if they are also related to what you had informed or something else.
Avatar n tn Rare but serious causes of dark spots on lips are oral melnaotic macules and Peutz Jegher ‘s syndrome .Keep your lips well hydrated. Apply lemon juice mixed with glycerine.Cutting down on tea, coffee and quitting smoking may help. If it persists consult a dermatologist. He may suggest appropriate treatment. I hope it helps.

1169641 tn?1263278241 Over the past month this area has spread to cover all of my upper and lower lips. This does not itch but the lips are more sensitive and the peeling has become quite extensive and unsightly. I have tried HC cream and moisturizers with no improvement. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or ideas you might be able to offer. Thank you.
Avatar n tn t necessarily licked my lips more than usual, and licking my lips was never an issue in terms of dehydration. The skin of my lips also looks stretched, with a glossy appearance when I don't constantly moisturize them - something I didn't have to do so frequently prior to that - now I have petroleum jelly or chapstick applied almost 24 hrs a day and still see no improvement.

Avatar n tn I have these dark lines that go from the corner of my lips down to the bottom of my face. I have no idea what it is. They're clearly visible if you look at my face from a sideways angle. From the front you can only see it a little. It's a little slanted line. Could it be from an unhealthy diet? I'm 16 and I heard I have big cheeks. Could it be because my cheeks are too big or something? I want to get rid of it quickly.
Avatar f tn Thank you so much for the reply! The dark spot itself is gone ... but my lips get painfully dry and flaky still. So, I will definitely try taking Vitamin B complex. I stopped taking multivits but I can get back into that as well. I also read somewhere that it could be from hormonal changes & around the time the dark spot cropped up I had started taking birth control again ... might that have been a cause as well? I started using Vaseline earlier in the week & that has really helped!
Avatar m tn What can cause a dark spot on the lips, as if there was a concentration of blood beneath the surface? There is no actual bleeding, and no sensations whatsoever. The skin is otherwise normal, no blister or anything. The lips are a normal color, aside from the one darker area. I have a severe cold sore phobia and the lips belong to a family member I live with.
Avatar f tn It is especially common in pregnant women, those on oral contraceptives, and hormone replacement therapy during menopause. It can sometimes occur in males as well. Other medications, such as anti-seizure medications, may also cause melasma. The rash is usually symmetrical and present on the cheeks, lips (including upper lips), nose or the forehead. Sun exposure is strongly associated with melasma. The best treatment for melasma is prevention. It is good that you are using regular sunscreen.
Avatar n tn s lip balm with SPF 15 to help protect your lips from direct heat and UV. Other lip balm or lip moisturizers with SPF may also help. There is no definite treatment for dark lips although micropigmentation which is used to apply permanent colors on the lips, eyes and eye brows may be used to bring color to the lips. This is more extensive and entails more risks but may give more dramatic and long lasting results.
Avatar n tn can you tell me if the vitamin E cream has helped you in the long run and if the dark skin in and around the corner of the lips has disappeared ? My son last July got thèse cold sores for the first time on his lips right after a conjunctivitis and healed from it but just few weeks later we had to travel to India and it turned more darker and visible...as if He was having a moustache ...guess that list the hot weather that have accelerated the darkness...
Avatar f tn my upper lips have 3-4 dark spots and I don't know if it's from the sun or not but i recently got it this year. I don't remember when but it was definately after april. On my bottom lips, some are partly red and some are dark, and there are also a few light speckles that almost form a line between the red and the dark area of the bottom lip. is there a way to reverse this or treat this discoloration because it REALLY bothers me! thanks! i also got a photo.
