Superficial fascial and muscular layers in the face and neck: A histological study

Superficial fascial and muscular layers in the face and neck: A histological study The author emphasizes and clarifies some disputed anatomical points based on topographical histological studies of the superficial muscular and fibrous layers of the face and neck, made in 8 cadavers, 6 human fetuses, 3 monkeys, and 42 surgical specimens. The findings in this anatomical study should make certain plastic surgical operations of the face more understandable, especially the rhytidectomy as it is done today. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Springer Journals

Abstract

The author emphasizes and clarifies some disputed anatomical points based on topographical histological studies of the superficial muscular and fibrous layers of the face and neck, made in 8 cadavers, 6 human fetuses, 3 monkeys, and 42 surgical specimens. The findings in this anatomical study should make certain plastic surgical operations of the face more understandable, especially the rhytidectomy as it is done today.
