Cleft lip and cleft palates are caused when the facial structure isn't developed properly as a fetus and can cause feeding and growth problems in infants. Lip surgery is available for people born with these defects and can change the aesthetics and structure of the face.

Its actually a cleft lip... Someone with a cleft lip would find the term "harelip" (one word and not "hair", but hare.") offensive. It's basically comparing the lip being pulled up toward the nose looking like a hare's lip. No, cleft lip will not kill someone.
