What is a Cleft Lift?

Labiopalatoschisis is a congenital condition characterized by a cleft in the lip and palate, present from birth. This condition can affect speech function, eating, and appearance. Palatoplasty is a surgical procedure to close the cleft in the palate, aiming to improve speech, swallowing, and restore a harmonious facial structure. Both procedures are essential in addressing this congenital anomaly and should be performed by experienced plastic surgeons. Early intervention is highly recommended for optimal results, positively impacting the child's development and quality of life.
Through professional and compassionate care, our clinic is committed to providing the best services, ensuring a safe healing process and satisfactory aesthetic and functional outcomes. This helps patients achieve a better life and greater self-confidence.

How do I know if a Labioplasty for me?

Ideal candidates include infants and children with cleft lip and palate requiring functional and aesthetic correction, as well as adults with unresolved conditions.

Cleft Lift Procedure

Labiopalatoschisis and palatoplasty are performed by a skilled surgical team using minimally invasive techniques and advanced methods. In infants or children, the procedure begins with general anesthesia to ensure comfort.
Labiopalatoschisis repair involves making incisions around the lip and soft tissues, then repositioning the tissues to close the cleft neatly and harmoniously. Palatoplasty repairs the palate cleft by closing the gap, restoring the structure of muscles and tissues to allow normal speech and swallowing function. High expertise is required to achieve both aesthetic and functional results.
The surgery duration typically ranges from 1 to 3 hours, depending on severity. Postoperative recovery is closely monitored to ensure proper healing and minimize complications.
This approach aims to improve both appearance and function, supporting growth and boosting the patient’s confidence.

Cleft Lift Recovery

Postoperative care is vital to ensure smooth healing. Children generally need ample rest and close supervision during recovery.
The healing process usually lasts a few weeks, during which proper wound care, a soft diet, and adherence to doctor’s instructions are essential. Routine check-ups help monitor progress and address potential issues.
Avoiding strenuous activities and maintaining cleanliness of the surgical area are critical. With proper care, optimal results can be achieved, supporting a healthy and successful recovery journey.

Cleft Lift Result

The outcomes of labiopalatoschisis and palatoplasty are typically highly satisfying, significantly improving the appearance of the lips and palate. Speech, swallowing, and articulation generally improve, greatly supporting social and emotional development.
With appropriate care and sufficient healing time, long-term results can greatly enhance overall quality of life. Natural, neat, and harmonious results boost self-confidence and create new opportunities in various aspects of life.
Through a focus on both aesthetic and functional excellence, patients can enjoy healthier, more confident, and happier lives.
