The survival rate, color, cicatrix of the flap as well as the matching degree with surrounding tissues and patient satisfaction were evaluated after surgery.Results: Throughout the follow-up period, the flaps remained viable with color and texture closely resembling that of the surrounding skin. There were no reported instances of dysfunction, complications, or recurrence.Conclusion: The kite flap is a technique used for reconstruction of small to medium-sized defects in various zones of the face. It is a simple surgical method with sufficient blood supply and extensive adaptability.
