One Pedicled Superficial Temporal Artery Hair-bearing Flap to Reconstruct Three Different Anatomical Areas of the Burnt Face: A Personal Technique.

Reconstruction of the burnt face is a challenge. In men, the best option to hide facial scars and get rid of the grafted facial appearance is to use the superficial temporal artery hair-bearing flap. In the literature, the superficial temporal artery flap hair-bearing flap has been used to reconstruct one facial anatomical area in men such the eyebrows, the beard, or the mustache area. In this communication, the author describes a personal technique that allows the use of one pedicled superficial temporal artery hair-bearing flap to reconstruct both eyebrows and improve the grafted appearance of the upper/lower lips post the release and graft of burn contractures. The technique will be demonstrated by a case presentation.
