Doc, Ive been dealing with dark lips for a while now. I heard about YAG laser treatment, but when I asked a doctor about it, they said that in some cases, the results arent permanent and the treatment may need to be repeated after 6 months. Im concerned about the chances of it coming back. Do people usually get permanent results, or is it more likely to be temporary?

Dark lips can recur due to various factors like sun exposure, smoking, dehydration, and medical conditions. While laser treatments like Q-Switch Nd: Yag laser can provide effective results, their permanence depends on individual skin types and conditions. Some people may require touch-up sessions every 6 months, while others may achieve permanent results. To minimize recurrence, maintain good lip hygiene, protect your lips from the sun, and avoid habits that exacerbate dark lips. Consult a dermatologis
