What a TREAT to see this guy thriving!

One way to reduce unwanted attention to a repaired cleft lip is a smooth and well-aligned white roll.

The "white roll" is the lighter highlight along the border from the skin (cutaneous part) of the lip down to the red part of the lip (i.e., vermilion).

I do think the Z-plasty just above the Cupid's bow helps with the natural contour of the lip -- a little more snug transversely, with a concavity above the white roll. Then a transition back outwards with a convexity at the white roll, continuing around the vermilion and into the mucosa on the inside of the lip.

Sometimes following up on patients undergoing a different technique, I do see some flattening of this natural S-shape when looking from the side. In part, I think it's because the straight scar across it can lead to scar shortening (which is an inevitable and normal part of scar healing).

Cleft care for adults can be challenging, since so many cleft surgeons are employed by Childrens hospitals without any way to help adult patients.

We see a fair number of patients who visit from every corner of the country and globe, for their jaw surgery and cleft rhinoplasty.

These are medically necessary procedures to help people chew, breathe, speak, and sleep in a healthy, sustainable way.

I have cared for patients in their 20’s up through their 60’s and 70’s for cleft care, so don’t let age stop you!

Several patients were once with Dr. Salyer here in Dallas, skipped over Dr. Genecov, and have come back in to see us now that they feel ready again to consider a surgery.

Thankfully, we do our best to take every insurance we can, though we are always fighting with some to get back in with a rate that lets us keep our doors open.

It’s me, Dr. Huay-Zong Law.

What’s in a name?

In some areas of Asia, it’s customary to have a shared name for siblings and paternal cousins of each generation.

So for my family, the “Huay” character is shared with (co-director of ) and (bibliophile ).

Similarly, my cousins ) co-founder of ) and Huei-Ren Pan (jet-setting executive, and author of The Power of Li: Ascension) also share that character.

In some families, the pattern is set a handful of generations at a time. Or, it can be set to a poem many characters long, with each generation following each character in sequence before cycling back to the beginning, or starting fresh with a new poem.

Some differences happened based on who translated the name at the time of immigration, or like with my “Zong”, after birth, when my older sister wisely said it would be a lot easier to say (and cooler, to boot).

Do you have interesting naming traditions in your family?

Yes, being a craniofacial plastic surgeon is incredibly rewarding every single day. But it was a long road of studying, training, and sacrifice.

My undergraduate program stretched out to five years as my biomedical engineering major was brand new, and the senior year classes weren’t offered until that fifth year. The extra time let me play ultimate frisbee and take some fun classes, like fencing and ballroom dancing.

In medical school, I also took an extra year at the CDC to do a public health program, learning about big data, big problems, and big solutions.

Residency at UT-Southwestern was a big branch point. It was the #1 ranked program, known for its volume and intensity, and I had seen it firsthand as a rotating student. I flip-flopped between ranking it first and last on my rank list. But I decided that the strongest steel is made from the hottest fires (and repeated beatings with a heavy hammer). Thanks to .rohrich, , , among many others.

Fellowship was unique, learning from experienced masters like Drs. Steve Byrd, Craig Hobar, Richard Ha, Jeff Fearon, Jay Burns, and Jason Potter.

And then in practice, it took a couple more years to become fully board-certified, all as I worked alongside Drs. Genecov and Barcelo, eventually taking over the practice .

A long haul for sure. But for any students (high school, college, medical) staring at the steps ahead to reach your own goals — the days are long, and the years are short. Celebrate your wins, shake off your losses. Find your authentic self. Enjoy your journey.

Thanks to for filming.

What a joy to help care for our patients with a history of cleft lip and palate repair!

When your jaws do not line up well enough, no amount of speech therapy nor braces can fully address essential functions like:
- chewing food completely,
- speaking clearly, and
- smiling and socializing confidently.

I've included a sneak peek behind some of the 3D planning we do to minimize the risks of :
- relapse (leading to more surgery),
- hardware complications (needing removal or revision), and
- damage to tooth roots or nerves (causing permanent numbness or loss of dentition).

My current preference is a single plate on the right and left sides of the maxilla with single piece LeFort I advancements.

A multi-piece LeFort I is sometimes better off with a single, four-buttress plate, for more stable fixation!

I still find hand-written notes the best way to learn and review.

It may be the kinesthetics. It may be the active distillation, figuring out the keystones and locking them down to drill in again and again. (Please excuse that doctor handwriting!)

Reviewing these types of notes and papers from residency help me layer years of surgeries and cases together to hopefully perform the best that I can.

Thanks to Dr. Fu-Chan Wei, Dr. Nadal, and the entire Chang Gung team for their teaching in Taiwan. And of course thanks to Dr. who makes even the most incredibly complex head and neck flap reconstruction seem so simple.

Thankful this morning to be able to stand on the shoulders of giants.

Dr. Law talks about his favorite instrument, the Penfield 1.

Not found in most Plastic surgery nor even Craniofacial sets, it comes from the neurosurgical world courtesy of Dr. Wilder Penfield.

One end hits the sweet spot of sharp but not too pointy, and the other end even more rounded for protecting delicate structures (like the nasal mucous or the brain) while dissecting.

It’s a gem of a tool worth trying out for that next alveolar bone graft!

I usually tell people that first week is rough, but even by two weeks much of the swelling has begun to go away.

The 6 week video shows the effect of different focal lengths! When people come in complaining of wide noses and other distortions other people don’t notice as much, it’s often from those close-up selfies giving a fish-eye effect.

For consistent photos for analysis and comparison, consistent focal distance and lighting helps give apples to apples comparison, and a more accurate view of what the world actually sees.

“Everything’s perfect, you couldn’t have done a better job. I’m so happy.”⁠
