Cleft lip. Image 2 of 2. Artwork of the face of a person with a cleft, or hare, lip following surgery to correct it. A cleft lip is a birth defect caused by a failure of the face to fuse together correctly during the embryonic stage of development. It can be surgically corrected and there are generally no complications, although dental management and speech therapy may be necessary in some cases. See M350/287 for an image of the person before surgery

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the transformative journey of a person with a cleft lip, showcasing the incredible results of corrective surgery. The artwork focuses on the face, highlighting the remarkable before-and-after transformation that occurs after surgical intervention. Cleft lip is a congenital condition caused by incomplete fusion of facial tissues during embryonic development. However, through modern medicine and skilled surgeons, this deformity can be repaired successfully with minimal complications. In this image, we witness the skillful work of medical professionals as they meticulously pin and stitch together the fragmented parts of the lip to restore its natural form. The yellow background serves as a stark contrast against the patient's face, drawing attention to their transformed appearance post-surgery. This visual representation emphasizes not only physical healing but also highlights how medical advancements can positively impact an individual's self-esteem and overall well-being. While dental management and speech therapy may be necessary in some cases following surgery, it is important to note that these procedures generally lead to successful outcomes for patients affected by cleft lip. This photograph from Science Photo Library showcases both the challenges faced by individuals with this condition and offers hope for those seeking treatment options.
