The reconstruction of forehead and scalp defects is a difficult task. Common reconstructive methods are associated with multiple complications and may fail, requiring a difficult second surgery. We present the use of external tissue expansion as a method to achieve effective closure of a failed scalp and forehead reconstruction.
