Forehead reconstruction.

The article focuses on forehead reconstruction of surgical wounds following skin cancer resection. Reconstruction options are presented for three forehead subunits. Preserving motor and, when possible, sensory nerve function, maintaining eyebrow position, and camouflaging incisions are priorities for successful reconstruction. Most forehead defects that cannot be closed primarily are usually reconstructed with laterally based advancement flaps.

Scalp reconstruction.

The article focuses on scalp reconstruction of surgical wounds following skin cancer resection. In contrast to other cosmetic units, scalp wounds are closed under significant tension, because the galea restricts overlying tissue movement. For defects that cannot be closed primarily, rotation flaps developed within the subgaleal space are often the best reconstruction option.
