You probably mean "no the" 'I can see redness (this general feature) above and below your lips".
"I can see the redness above and below your lips." (In these places but maybe not in other places).

I am looking at a picture of the result after laser hair removal was done on her face. I am commenting that 'I can see redness above and below your lips'. I am not sure if I should put 'the' before redness or not.
