Congenital Anomaly Surgery
Congenital anomalies can affect function, growth, and appearance—but timely, expert surgery can restore development, comfort, and confidence. At AIMS Aesthetic & Medical Centre, we provide comprehensive congenital anomaly surgery in Lahore, led by Dr. Zameer Abbas Mir (FCPS, Plastic Surgery), with a focus on safe correction, normal function, and age-appropriate aesthetics.
Our goal is simple: provide early, precise correction that supports healthy growth, proper function, and natural appearance.
What Is Congenital Anomaly Surgery?
Congenital anomaly surgery addresses conditions present at birth—such as cleft lip and palate, microtia (underdeveloped ear), fused or extra fingers, and hypospadias—to restore function and improve appearance. These procedures are planned around growth milestones to protect development while achieving reliable, lasting outcomes. Many families choose our centre for individualized plans, meticulous technique, and coordinated follow-up care.

The Congenital Surgery Process
Our process ensures comfort, safety, and precision at every step:
Consultation: You’ll meet Dr. Zameer Abbas to review your child’s condition, growth stage, functional needs, and timing for surgery.
Preparation: Age-appropriate assessments, anesthesia planning, and parent counseling are completed to ensure a smooth experience.
Procedure: Surgery is performed using child-safe techniques to restore structure and function while minimizing scarring.
Refinement: Meticulous soft-tissue handling and suturing protect growth plates and support natural development.
Recovery: You’ll receive detailed home-care guidance and follow-up schedules tailored to your child’s age and procedure.
Most children show visible improvement within weeks, while maturation and fine scar remodeling continue over several months. Some conditions are treated in stages as the child grows.
Recovery & Aftercare
After surgery, mild swelling or tenderness is normal and settles within days to weeks.
Parents receive clear guidance on:
Wound care, dressings, and hygiene
Pain control and activity limits for age
Splinting or special garments if required
Follow-up visits for suture removal, scar care, and growth monitoring
Return to nursery/school varies by procedure, typically within 1–2 weeks, with gradual return to full activities as advised.
Congenital Surgery Results
Successful correction improves function, development, and social confidence. Families can expect:
Functional restoration (feeding, speech support after cleft repair; hand use after syndactyly/polydactyly surgery; urinary stream alignment after hypospadias)
Natural, age-matched appearance
Thoughtful scar placement and refinement over time
Every procedure at AIMS Aesthetic & Medical Centre is performed with child-focused planning to ensure results that support normal growth and daily life.
