Common Questions

Reconstructive Surgery FAQs

1 What is flap surgery in reconstructive plastic surgery?
A
Unlike a simple skin graft, a flap includes skin, underlying tissue, and its own dedicated blood supply, allowing it to cover exposed bones, joints, and hardware.
2 Can diabetic foot ulcers be saved from leg amputation?
A
Yes, our multidisciplinary limb salvage protocols combine infection clearance, vascularized flap coverage, and corrective podiatric surgery to prevent high-level amputations.
3 What is the timeline for recovery after nerve reconstruction?
A
Nerves regenerate slowly at approximately 1mm per day. Regular physical therapy and monitoring over 6 to 18 months track functional muscle re-innervation.
4 How are deep bedsores (pressure sores) permanently repaired?
A
By excising diseased bone and transposing robust, well-padded fasciocutaneous or muscle flaps to provide long-term cushioning.
