Reconstructive plastic surgery is done to correct facial and body abnormalities caused by birth defects, injury, disease, or aging. Usually, the goal of reconstructive plastic surgery is to improve body function.
People who need reconstructive surgery:
- People with birth defects (including cleft lip, craniofacial anomalies, or hand deformities)
- People with deformities (including those due to an accident, infection, disease, or aging)
Reconstructive surgery techniques
Skin grafts
Skin graft involves taking a
healthy patch of skin from one area of the body, known as the donor site, and
using it to cover another area where skin is missing or damaged. The piece of
skin that is moved is entirely disconnected, and requires blood vessels to grow
into it when placed in the ‘recipient site.
Flap surgery
Flap reconstruction involves the transfer of a living piece
of tissue from one part of the body to another, along with the blood vessel
that keeps it alive. Unlike a skin graft, flaps carry their own blood supply,
so can be used to repair more complex defects. Flap surgery can restore form
and function to areas of the body that have lost skin, fat, muscle movement,
and/or skeletal support. There are three main types of flap.
