[Loss of substance of the lateral region of the face].
The lateral region of the face is often exposed to trauma and may also be the site of tumor localization. Exeresis may lead to major tissue loss. We report several surgical techniques, from the most simple to more complicated, available for facial repair. Neighboring regions in the frontal or temporal area are used but a submental flap may also be useful.
