At SurgiPartner, we provide advanced cleft lip surgery in Hyderabad using modern reconstructive techniques to restore normal lip shape, facial symmetry, speech development, and feeding function. Our multidisciplinary team ensures both aesthetic excellence and functional improvement, offering children a confident and healthy future.
Is Your Child Born with a Cleft Lip? Early Surgery Makes a Difference
A cleft lip can affect not only appearance but also feeding, speech development, dental alignment, and emotional well-being. Early surgical correction helps children achieve better facial growth, clearer speech, and improved social confidence as they grow.
Timely cleft lip repair allows normal muscle function of the lip and nose and supports proper facial development.

Understanding Cleft Lip Surgery
Cleft lip surgery is a reconstructive procedure that involves carefully repositioning and stitching the lip muscles, skin, and tissues to create a natural-looking lip and nose structure. The surgery also restores proper muscle function, allowing normal feeding, facial expression, and speech development.
The procedure is usually performed when the baby is 3–6 months old, depending on weight, health, and medical readiness. Advanced surgical planning ensures minimal scarring and long-term facial harmony.
