Maxilla Facial Surgery
Facial Surgeries can be of various types.
Cancer Surgery- All types of skin cancer surgeries have a specific plan for removal and then repair. The repair can be done from surrounding skin or from distant skin. A plastic surgeon can decide what is best for these patients.
Sometimes, surrounding skin is rotated to fill the defect caused by skin cancer removal. Many a times, distant skin is needed to reconstruct the post removal defect.
Facial Injuries- A plastic surgeon can best tell you about repair of injuries on face, so that scar is minimal. It is necessary to place scar along RSTL , for a hidden scar. A plastic surgeon almost never leaves a suture mark. Aesthetic repair of injuries is mitaculous and best in hands of a Plastic surgeon.
