A Comment on: “Lip reconstruction using superficial flaps: functional and aesthetic integration”

This Letter to the Editor comments on the article “Lip reconstruction using superficial flaps: functional and aesthetic integration.” The reported case series provides valuable clinical examples of individualized superficial flap selection for upper and lower lip reconstruction following excision of non-melanoma skin cancer. We emphasize the importance of tailored reconstructive planning while suggesting that objective functional outcome measures and clearer flap-selection criteria could further strengthen the translational impact of the study.
