The appearance of the face can be altered due to injury, trauma, medical treatments, and Moh's resection of skin cancers. In many cases, an individual's self confidence can be negatively impacted as well. Fortunately, there are a variety of reconstructive surgery techniques which can help by re-approximating a normal appearance and/or improving function. Reconstructive techniques can improve both congenital deformities and developmental deformities.
