Through a New Lens: Skin-Grafted Free Flaps and Objective Facial Skin Color Matching.

Head and neck ablative surgery can impose aesthetic disfigurement, particularly when severe color mismatch exists between native and reconstructed facial skin. To date, the accuracy, objectivity, and modifiability of facial skin color matching remains poorly understood. To measure skin color match outcomes after head and neck reconstruction using handheld colorimetry.

Smile Outcomes of an Externally Scarless, Intraoral Orthodromic Temporalis Tendon Transfer.

Temporalis tendon transfer (TTT often relies on external incisions in the nasolabial fold, temporal region, or both. Herein, we studied smile outcomes of a TTT technique via a single intraoral incision without external skin incisions. To measure the difference in static perioral positions before and after intraoral TTT.
