Question

I've noticed that my upper lip is quite dark, and the skin at the corners of my lips seem darker too. Plus, my lips are constantly dry and chapped no matter what time of year it is. Is there any way to permanently fix these issues?

Yes, these problems can be effectively managed and potentially cured with a combination of topical treatments, lifestyle changes, and professional interventions, such as using lip balms with SPF, exfoliating with sugar or salt scrubs, applying turmeric or lemon juice to reduce hyperpigmentation, and consulting a dermatologist for chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser treatments to address persistent issues.
