Numerous flap options are available to reconstruct tissue loss from the tip of the nose. The nasojugal flap we describe, due to its great reliability, yields excellent functional and cosmetic results, and we believe that it is a valuable alternative to other techniques of reconstruction for defect of the nasal tip.

Patients are motivated to have effective treatment to restore hair loss, and hair transplantation is among best treatments. 2 The principle of hair micro-grafts during AGA
