A cleft lip occurs because the lip, which originates as three spearate pieces early in pregnancy, fails to propery fuse. This failure may occur on one side (unilateral) or both sides

(bilateral). Since the lip and nose form together, there are typically abnomalities of the nostril rim and tip of the nose.

The goal of cleft lip surgery is to close the hole caused by the cleft and simultaneously recreate the natural "cupid's bow" shape of the lip line. A second goal is to at least partially correct the abnormally positioned nostril rim. Dr. Fata uses the "rotation-advancement" technique to repair cleft lips, which allows the scar to be hidden along the natural vertical ridges of the lip. The following patient examples demonstrate the results that can be achieved with these techniques on both the lip and the nose, although individual results may vary.
