Who invented Z-plasty?

Question

Z-plasty as a plastic surgery principle for scar revision

Answer 1

"In 1856, Denonvilliers first described the Z-plasty technique as a surgical treatment for lower lid ectropion. The first reference to this technique in American literature was in 1913, by McCurdy, as treatment for contracture at the oral commissure. Limberg, in 1929, provided a more detailed geometric description. Numerical data showing optimal angles and length relationships of Z-plasty limbs are credited to Davis (1946)."

That's the only info I could find on z-plasty history, hope it helps! :)
