Facial Artery Perforator Flap for Perioral and Perinasal Oncologic Defect Reconstruction: Surgical Technique and Postoperative Outcomes

However, specific defect locations, such as the nose tip, may be associated with higher complication rates, necessitating careful patient selection and surgical planning.
