The Flap Technique

The Flap Technique is a surgical procedure used to repair or cover damaged tissue, such as skin, muscle, or bone. It involves creating a tissue "flap" that remains attached to its original blood supply, allowing it to be moved or rotated to cover an injury or defect. This method ensures better blood flow, promoting healing and reducing the risk of tissue death. The flap can be taken from nearby areas or from a different part of the body, depending on the repair needs. Overall, it provides a reliable way to restore function and appearance in complex wounds.
