It is a simple procedure done under local Anesthesia where the Mucocele along with the minor salivary glands will be removed . It is completely safe and won’t affect ur aesthetics of lip . Only due to Anesthesia post procedure you might feel slight discomfort for 1-2 days which is completely reversible

Better to consult a surgeon at earliest and get it excised
