Abstract

Introduction and aims: Skin grafts are frequently used to reconstruct surgical defects of the nose. Frequently these grafts are poorly matched in terms of texture, colour, and thickness. Meloloabial composite grafts, having both skin and fat, and being harvested in close proximity to surgical defect have the potential for excellent cosmesis, and are conveniently located for ease of harvest by a single surgeon. The aim of this presentation is to describe the meloloabial composite graft, its utility in reconstruction of facial defects, morbidity associated with the procedure and outcomes following surgery.
