The use of Collagen Matrix to enhance closure of facial defects.

Facial defects created by removal of various types of skin cancer are usually closed primarily. There are some areas of the face where primary closure produces less than optimal results. We have utilized a non-reactive collagen sponge (Collagen Matrix) to enhance closure by secondary intention following removal of skin cancers. This presentation describes the properties of Collagen Matrix as well as the technique we utilized for closure of facial defects following tumor removal.
