Wedge Removal Of Lip Lesion With Closure

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 40510

This removes a section of the lip, typically to take out a lesion or abnormal area, using a wedge-shaped cut that allows the remaining edges to be stitched directly back together. It's used when the affected area is small enough that the lip can be closed in a simple, straight-line repair without needing tissue borrowed from elsewhere. The goal is to remove the problem area while preserving the natural shape and function of the lip.
