HI,
Welcome to HCM.
Hypopigmentaion (decrease normal pigmentation)/ Depigmentation (lost of total pigmentation) of your lip, cause can be various but vitiligo is common and worst of them.
I think you need to confirm your condition first before starting treatment.
Please go to a dermatologist and have a Wood's lamp study of your lip.
There is a lot of treatment option for vitiligo.
Topical, systemic, surgical procedure and combination of them can use according to rationale judgement of your dermatologist.
With regards,
Dr. M M Mahmud (drmstq@yahoo.com)
