The correction of facial asymmetry in complex hemifacial microsomia presents a challenging problem for reconstructive surgeons. Numerous microsurgical flaps have been introduced for reconstruction of facial asymmetry. This article reports our experience in facial soft tissue reconstruction with microsurgical anterolateral thigh fasciocutaneous flap transfer in six patients with hemifacial microsomia. This flap, which has a reliable vascular pedicle and relatively thin pliable soft tissue, can provide an ideal treatment for facial asymmetry in hemifacial microsomia.
