Abstract:
Facial trauma accounts of 7% to 10% of emergency department visits in the United States every year. The management of facial soft tissue trauma is an essential skill for the facial plastic surgeon. Understanding preoperative evaluation, repair/management of concomitant injuries, postoperative care, and scar treatment help the facial plastic surgeon obtain the best functional and aesthetic results for the patient. Treating the face by subunit and avoiding common pitfalls is the key to achieving optimal results. This article can serve as a basis for surgical pearls and considerations when evaluating and repairing facial soft tissue trauma.
