Forehead Skin Flap Reconstruction (Blood Supply Preserved)

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 15731

A section of skin from the forehead is carefully lifted and moved to reconstruct another area, most often the nose, while keeping it attached to its original blood supply through a narrow stalk of tissue. Keeping the blood supply intact helps the moved tissue survive and heal in its new location.
