Lip balm with SPF will be required with multiple applications. Night cream with kojic acid will help. Lip licking aggravates the problem hence avoid doing it. Good intake of water. Peel treatments can also be done to lighten it.
Next Steps
Also check with your blood vitamin B12 levels which can induce pigmentation.
