Superficial head and neck anatomy for dermatologic surgery: Critical concepts

Spring Dermatology & Skin Care Expo Conference
May 14-15, 2018 | Montreal, Canada

Steven Chow

University of Southern California, USA

Keynote : Dermatol Res Skin Care

Abstract:

Anatomic knowledge is critical when performing dermatologic surgery, including Mohs micrographic and reconstructive surgery. Distortion, asymmetry and functional complications can occur after the reconstruction of extensive defects. Awareness of the critical anatomic functional and cosmetic structures on the head and neck allow the surgeon to better avoid complications. Application of advanced reconstruction techniques can optimize the functional and aesthetic results.
