Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find a complete clearance rate of QAs at D60 verified by histopathological analysis and we will observe a variation of at least 15% in the measurements between the treatment groups.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluate the clinical improvement of the lower lip by comparing D0 with D60 by checking clinical evaluation by photographs and dermoscopic evaluation.;Evaluate epithelial dysplasia using the KIN evaluation method by comparing D0 with D60, observing the histological improvement.;Evaluate adverse effects related to the proposed treatments, incidence of local events and severity by actively asking for possible effects (bleeding, pain, burning, numbness, discomfort in eating, hypertrophic scars after the procedure).;Assess tolerability through subjective preference to any of the proposed treatments.
