Augmentation of the free border of the lip in cleft lip patients using temporoparietal fascia.

abstract：:Current literature recommends the use of a carbon dioxide laser for excision of lesions where minimal damage and wound contracture are desirable. The extent of tissue damage is evaluated as a correlate of percentage of split-thickness skin graft "take" following excision of full-thickness skin with scalpel, electrocut...
