Rotational skin flaps

Rotational skin flaps are surgical techniques used to repair skin defects resulting from skin cancer removal or traumatic injuries. These procedures aim to close wounds and restore skin integrity by repositioning adjacent skin to cover the defect. During the procedure, a section of skin next to the wound is elevated, rotated, and sutured into place, ensuring that the relocated skin maintains its blood supply. This technique is valuable for various dermatological concerns, especially after skin cancer excisions or trauma that leads to significant skin loss. If you require a surgical procedure involving rotational skin flaps, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider. They can assess your specific needs and recommend the most suitable approach. Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic specializes in skin procedures, ensuring expert care for patients with various dermatological concerns, including those requiring rotational skin flaps.
