What is lip eversion?

Lip eversion can be caused by facial burns, trauma and infection, among which scar contracture after burns is the most common. The degree of valgus deformity and functional impairment are related to the severity of the residual scar contracture. In mild cases, the lower lip is everted, while in severe cases, the lower lip can be extremely everted and may cause functional impairments such as eating and speaking, and the development of the mandible may also be affected. If it is caused by misaligned healing after trauma and there is no serious infection, the tissue loss is generally not much. Firearm injuries are often accompanied by severe infection and may cause extensive scarring. Those caused by gangrenous inflammation are often accompanied by extensive destruction of deep tissues or scar contracture, and adhesion of bones and temporomandibular joints may occur. Sufficient consideration should be given to this during repair. There are many surgical treatment methods with good results.
