Revision surgery: Frequently cleft lip scars need to be revised to get them just right. It should not be a major process but it can make a big difference.

Surgery, laser, meds: Depending on how recent and how bad the scar is, you might benefit form laser or medication to put on it or injected. There is always the possibility of surgical revision also. You should see a cleft surgeon. I know there are very good cleft surgeons at chapel hill, nc right next door to you.
