I had this accident about two and a half months ago, and now that the scab's gone, I'm left with this white patch of skin where the injury was more severe. I'm wondering if this will heal naturally. Also, this whitish skin has some red marks in places, and in some areas, the skin is raised. Should I be worried or is this part of the healing process?

I've been taking isotretinoin at 20 mg and it's really drying out my lips. I've tried a few lip balms, but nothing seems to help. Could you recommend a lip balm that might work better? I'm getting a bit worried about how chapped they're getting.

Dry lips is the most common side effect of Isotretinoin,use butter based lipbalms as they are long lasting and stay hydrated
