A. A cleft lip can be treated with two surgeries. The first surgery is usually done under very light anaesthesia when the baby is 3 months old. The second surgery is done when the baby is about 9 to 12 months old. The treatment of cleft palate can be extended to 18 years of age involving multiple surgeries and cleft palate ultrasound from time to time to determine the next course of action. To create a functional palate, the first surgery usually takes place when the baby is 6 to 12 months old
