Hi,
Thanks for sharing your concern with us.
To treat your lip pigmentation
Use a lip balm enriched with SPF( you may use blistex lip balm)
Apply Kojic acid based cream over lips twice in a day like kojivit cream
You may take few sessions of mild peels like lactic acid , arginine or arbutin based peels.

Hope that answers your query. Take care.
