Achieving a Good Aesthetic Result in the Correction of Giant Nevus of the Labiomental Area.

Benign skin lesions of the face require appropriate surgical treatment. Giant pigmented skin lesions possess the high risk of malignancy which sometimes is not possible to diagnose preoperatively. Majority of the traditional techniques for lower lip and chin reconstruction were developed for the skin cancer resections and are extensively aggressive and disfiguring in case of benign lesions. Perhaps the less invasive approach based on local skin flaps would lead to better aesthetic and functional outcome. We present a case report of the 67-year-old patient who has passed through numerous unsuccessful attempts of correction of the giant nevus of the chin and lower lip area with continued growth. At the time of our surgery, lesion almost covered the whole chin and lower lip area. Appropriate unaffected skin margins excision was performed, and the defect was addressed with combination of traditional incision patterns with local skin flap technique. We believe that our approach provides a good aesthetic and functional outcome in benign lesions correction of the labiomental area.
