Cleft lip nasal deformity is a complex anomaly, and proper correction requires considerable surgical talent and experience. Surgeons must continue to tailor approaches to individuals and evolve techniques to best serve each patient. Children who benefit from good surgical repair have a chance to mature with fewer psychological sequelae from this deformity.4
