Cleft lip surgery is a highly specialised procedure aimed at repairing cleft lips caused by a congenital condition. This surgery is essential not only for aesthetic reasons but also to improve speech development, feeding, and overall quality of life. At Velora Face Clinic, we provide expert care led by Dr. B. Ramchandra, a highly experienced craniofacial and cosmetic surgeon in Hyderabad, to restore both form and function for children and adults alike.
The surgery repairs the separation in the upper lip, resulting in a more natural appearance and enhanced facial symmetry.
It helps with feeding and speech development, both of which can be challenging for children with a cleft lip.
The surgery restores a normal appearance and helps prevent future social and psychological challenges caused by visible facial differences.
During your consultation, Dr. B. Ramchandra will assess the severity of the cleft lip, explain the surgical approach, and answer any questions you have about the process.
The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity.
The recovery period for cleft lip surgery is generally short (approximately 1-2 weeks), but the final results and aesthetic improvements will become visible over time.
You may experience mild swelling and discomfort post-surgery. We provide detailed care instructions to manage any pain and swelling.
As the healing process continues, you will notice a significant improvement in the appearance of the lip and facial symmetry.
Dr. B. Ramchandra will provide continuous follow-up care to ensure healing progresses smoothly and the best results are achieved.
If you or your child needs cleft lip surgery in Hyderabad, Dr. B. Ramchandra is here to help. With his expertise and personalised care, we can help restore both function and aesthetics.
