My view is once the lip is normal, it won't grow. As long as however you FIRST got it is gone, then it will remain normal.



I wrote earlier that however you first got EC.. curing that doesn't necessarily mean that is cures your lip(growing skin problem).


Curing that will PREVENT it(inflammation) from happening again but not cure the growing skin problem.


The growing skin problem is cortisol. If there was inflammation on your lip(however you got it), cortisol will come to it. It is the bodies anti-inflammatory hormone and it speeds up aging.

Basically its like the lips skin cells are on constant adrenaline. They die quickly and this causes new skin cells to reproduce. This all happens too fast.. the dead skin cells can't exfoliate quick enough.. so the new cells push them up/outward. Thats why it piles up/crusty.

Melatonin slows down aging so they don't die quick. It also encourages proliferation(strengthening).


I haven't gone into detail, i'll continue to do treatment and update everyone in detail after a month.
