CROSS-LID SWITCH FLAP FOR EYELASH RECONSTRUCTION

Abstract

Eyelash area and eyelid marginal defects can be quite problematic to reconstruct in case of deficiency due to its unique features. Reconstruction of eyelashes not only contributes to aesthetic but also functional results. The switch flap technique, which aims to reconstruct eyelashes in two stages, can provide a tissue with reliable vascularity. Besides, the main advantage of the technique is the reconstruction of the eyelashes with their exact equivalents and the ability of primary closure of the donor area.
