Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of visualization of skin cancer resection defects on the face on the post-operative satisfaction of patients after their reconstruction. To achieve this aim, patients invited to participate in this study will be randomized to either seeing or not seeing their skin cancer excision defect prior to reconstruction. After reconstruction, patient satisfaction will be assessed in both groups to determine if visualization of the defect prior to reconstruction has any effect on patient satisfaction and if any detected effect has durability over time.

Conditions
