Total eyebrow reconstruction with a free superficial temporal artery flap: A case report

The eyebrow plays a crucial role in facial aesthetics and expression. Reconstructing an eyebrow defect remains a challenge due to the unique characteristics of eyebrow hair. While various advanced methods exist, we report the first documented use of a free superficial temporal artery flap for total eyebrow reconstruction. This case study describes a successful eyebrow reconstruction in a patient with a total eyebrow defect. The free superficial temporal artery flap provided excellent vascularity, texture, and hair growth, mimicking the natural eyebrow. Our findings suggest that the free superficial temporal artery flap offers a promising new option for reconstructing large eyebrow defects. This technique warrants further investigation in larger patient populations.
