Extra Complex Wound Repair, Face

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 13153

This covers additional length of a complex, multi-layer wound repair on the eyelid, nose, ear, or lip, beyond what the main repair already covers. It's billed in addition to the main procedure when the wound is longer and needs more repair than the base service accounts for. Complex repairs go beyond simple stitching, often involving deeper layers and reshaping the wound edges for the best cosmetic result.
