Eyebrow Reconstruction With Temporal Hairline Relay Flap.

Eyebrow is one of the most important features of the face; the absence of eyebrows will cause a heavy psychological burden to patients. Existing brow reconstruction techniques are not perfect for every case of eyebrow defect. In this study, a patient who suffered from eyebrows loss after radiotherapy for hemangioma underwent eyebrow reconstruction with the relay transfer of a temporal hairline flap. The entire procedure was performed in the outpatient operating room. The temporal hairline flap was transferred to the eyebrow region in a relay and survived well without necrosis. In the 2-month follow-up, the shape and density of the reconstructed eyebrows were satisfactory. The operation showed this technique was innovative, economic, and recommended as a suitable choice for eyebrow reconstruction, especially in those patients with poor hair transplantation recipient area.
