Flap Surgery
Flap Surgery is a plastic and reconstructive surgery technique used to repair skin or soft tissue damage due to injury or illness. The damaged area is replaced with healthy tissue from another area of the body (the donor site) using a flap (a piece of tissue attached at one end). Flap Surgery is generally used for reconstructing damaged facial tissue, such as after a burn or a tumor, or to improve the appearance of areas such as nose, lips, and ears. The procedure is commonly used in hand and foot reconstructions. Flap Surgery is effective due to its ability to provide good blood supply and coverage to the wound area. It can also improve the patient's ability to move the affected body part, restoring normal functioning.
