Abstract

There are unique considerations for the management, repair, and reconstruction of pediatric facial soft tissue injuries. Conventional methods for the repair and reconstruction of facial soft tissue injuries can be successfully applied in children with considerations for anatomic and physiologic differences and the growth potential of a child. Attention to correct form, framework, and esthetics guides the proper reconstruction of individual regions on the face. Choice of approach ultimately depends on and the size, severity, location of injury, and surgeon's preferences.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
