Lip Reconstruction Surgery

Lip reconstruction surgery can be necessary for a variety of reasons. The most common causes are skin cancer and trauma. Mohs skin cancer surgery is a great way to remove cancerous skin cells layer by layer to ensure all the cancer is gone, but in many cases, it leaves a need for lip reconstruction. This often occurs because the lips are always exposed to the sun and are therefore a frequent area for skin cancer.

Auto accidents or sports accidents can also damage the lips, requiring reconstructive surgery. A lip can become torn, burned or tissue can be gone, requiring tissue grafts to completely rebuild and recontour the lips for a normal appearance. Residents of Reno and Lake Tahoe are fortunate that when this type of extensive surgery is needed, Avance Plastic Surgery Institute is nearby to provide exceptional levels of care.

Dr. Erez Dayan received his medical training at Harvard Medical School and went on to complete prestigious fellowship training at Dallas Institute of Plastic Surgery. His skills and expertise are sought by patients and medical practitioners from all over the world, as well as the United States. Dr. Dayan is exquisitely qualified to perform lip reconstruction surgery, regardless of your needs or level of trauma.

Lip Trauma Repair

Lip trauma repair is extremely personal, as this feature of your face helps to define the look that is uniquely you. Regardless of whether your need is small or large, injuries that require lip reconstruction surgery bring emotional and psychological distress. Dr. Dayan is completely sympathetic to these needs and concerns. He will work tirelessly to perform the necessary reconstructive procedures to create a normal and functional appearance.

Depending on your level of injury, lip trauma repair can be quick or may need more than one surgery to complete the reconstruction. There are several advanced techniques that Dr. Dayan can use to transplant tissue and fat to create normal, completely functional lips. He routinely combines several techniques to create the desired aesthetic, including liposuction and fat grafting, and even dermal fat grafting.
