Am I a good candidate for a cleft lip revision procedure to improve appearance?

conradjs
I had my last cleft lip repair surgery as a teenager 32 years ago. Now 47, I am wondering if I would be a good candidate for a revision. I would like to see my upper lip lowered enough so that my teeth are covered as much as possible. Also would like to reduce scarring if possible.
