Description
Summary:Facial surgeries are often challenging for surgeons due to their complex anatomy, aesthetic and functional importance. Interventions in the cosmetic subunit that comprises the eyebrows can be particularly difficult. This case report aims to demonstrate the use of island flap in this region.

This technique is commonly used for facial reconstruction; however, the literature describes only a few cases using this method for eyebrow reconstruction.
