Transition was good. Everyone was friendly, helpful and caring
Surgery
You will have had surgery when you were a baby to help repair your cleft. As you grow up you might find that you need further operations to help with your speech or changes in the shape of your face.
You can find out more about Rhinoplasty, which is surgery on your nose and Orthognathic surgery, which is on your jaw on the tabbed pages.
If you would like to know more about the operations you have had, you can arrange an appointment with the cleft team to talk about it.
