No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A cleft lip is a congenital defect resulting from failing to merge developmental processes in the Orofacial region. One of the most common complications surgeons fear after cleft lip repair is a hypertrophic scar. A cleft scar negatively affects a patient's appearance, psychology, and function. Several techniques have been proposed to improve lip scars such as steroid therapy, laser therapy, and silica gel. Despite such efforts, the results were still unsatisfactory. Botulinum Toxin injections may provide a more reliable method
