Abstrakt: Background: Damage to the skin and underlying tissues due to thermal burns is relevant. Despite the success of modern medicine, repairing thermal damage to the skin is a difficult task in reconstructive plastic surgery because of the nature of the damage and the regenerative features. Characteristic post-burn changes are associated with different depths of damage when areas of deep damage are combined with more superficial areas. Methods: We described a clinical case of the staged surgical treatment of a cicatricial deformity of the buccalperiorbital- perioral region resulting from a childhood burn injury from a hot object. The 44-year-old patient complained of an aesthetic and functional deformity of the buccal-periorbital-perioral region and had previously undergone repeated nonsurgical corrections. Results: A comprehensive approach to the surgical treatment of a patient with post-burn deformities using a diplene adhesive membrane directly affected the stage of the surgical treatment and contributed to improved functional and aesthetic results. Conclusion: The positive treatment results with preserved contraction and relaxation processes of the facial muscles as well as satisfactory aesthetic results allow us to recommend the use of a biodegradable diplene film during facial reconstructive operations.
