Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

I can understand your concern for white line on lower lip. After analyzing your query I agree with your doctor and in my view it appears to be simple post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation.

I suggest you to protect yourself from direct sunlight and don't try to lick the lip too often. An emollient cream can be applied for two to three times a day.
All the best
