After localization of Supraclavicular artery perforator with hand held Doppler; flap was raised in subfascial plane and inset was given under anesthesia. Out of five patients, there were two males and three females. Three patients had Postburn neck contractures, one had post electrical burn defect, and one had post infective defect over neck region.
