Abstract
Reconstruction of the chin region represents a technical challenge due to its three-dimensional configuration and its location close to the mouth. It requires both a functional approach by restoring mobility and an aesthetic approach by restoring the perioral furrows. For men who want to wear a beard, it becomes more difficult to choose the donor site for hairy skin. In that case, strategies of full thickness skin graft or pre-expanded loco-regional flaps are unusable. We propose here a functional, aesthetic and hairy reconstruction by performing a pre-expanded temporal free flap which allowed to resolve the problem of adjacent cervical contractures and to restore an integrated the bearded chin subunit.
