Vermilionplasty using medical tattooing after radial forearm flap reconstruction of the lower lip.

Vermilionplasty using medical tattooing was performed after radial forearm flap reconstruction of the lower lip in 2 patients. This technique is easy to perform in the outpatient setting, does not involve sacrifice of tissue, and results in an acceptable aesthetic outcome. We recommend vermilionplasty with medical tattooing as the procedure of choice after lip reconstruction with a distant flap.
