What Can Be Used To Sustain The Moisture Of Lips?
I had a dog bite to my face about 8 wks ago which removed over 1/2 of my chin and bottom lip - surgery pulled my cheeks and chin skin up and over to fill in the opening.now I am experiencing excessively dry lips. My top lip was punctured by the bite and they also brought a part of my top lip down to create a bottom lip. I have been using Bacitracin and Aquafor since the surgery to help heal the wound and moisturize my lips. What can I use to sustain the moisture longer?
