The reniform incision except the preauriclar pedical part which was 0.5~0.6 ㎝ away from the expander edge was slit until the deep fascia and dissected forword at the same layer in order to form a "bag-shape" flap. Then, an auricle model was put and fixed and aspirating tube was inserted in the "bag". The back of the reconstructive ear was repaired with the full thickness graft.
