The focus of the surgical specialty known as craniofacial surgery is deformities of the head, skull, face, neck, jaws, and associated tissues that are congenital or acquired. Although bone manipulation is frequently a component of craniofacial treatment, craniofacial surgery works with bone, skin, nerve, muscle, teeth, and other associated anatomy.
Apert's syndrome, Crouzon's syndrome, Treacher Collins syndrome, isolated and syndromic craniosynostosis, unusual craniofacial clefts, cleft lip and palate, micrognathia, numerous congenital ear abnormalities, microtia, and many more are among the ailments that craniofacial surgeons frequently treat.
