Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Eyebrow damage from burns, trauma, or skin cancer necessitates reconstructive surgery.
  • Current methods like free composite grafts or temporal flaps require extensive planning and shaping for optimal cosmetic results.
  • Achieving symmetry and natural appearance in eyebrow reconstruction remains a significant challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a modified, simplified technique for free graft eyebrow reconstruction.
  • To reduce the time and complexity associated with planning and shaping grafts.
  • To improve the symmetry and aesthetic outcome of eyebrow reconstruction.

Main Methods:

  • Development and application of a novel templating method for free composite grafts.
  • Utilizing the template to simplify the marking and shaping process of the graft.
