Muscles of the Anterior Neck01:26

Muscles of the Anterior Neck

5.2K
The anterior neck muscles are the group of muscles covering the front part of the neck. These muscles are classified into three subgroups. The first one is the superficial muscles, the most visible muscles in the front of the neck. It includes the platysma and sternocleidomastoid. The second group is the suprahyoid muscles, located above the hyoid bone. This group comprises the digastric, mylohyoid, geniohyoid, and stylohyoid. Lastly, the infrahyoid muscles are found below the hyoid bone and...

Muscles that Move the Head01:19

Muscles that Move the Head

6.4K
The muscles that move the head are a dynamic and complex group of structures that work together to facilitate a wide range of head movements, including rotation, flexion, extension, and lateral bending.
The bilateral sternocleidomastoid, or SCM, and the suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles are significant head flexors. The SCM muscles originate at the sternum and clavicle and attach to the mastoid process of the temporal bone. The SCM contracts bilaterally to bend the head forward, whereas...

Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

9.4K
The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.
Anterior Thoracic Muscles
The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation II: ACLS Airway Management

824
Airway management is a key skill in emergency and critical care settings, as maintaining a clear airway is essential for adequate oxygenation and ventilation.Head Tilt-Chin Lift TechniqueThe head tilt-chin lift maneuver is an essential technique primarily used in patients without suspected cervical spine injuries. To perform this maneuver, one hand is placed on the patient’s forehead, and gentle pressure is applied backward to tilt the head. The fingertips of the other hand are positioned...

The Hyoid Bone01:12

The Hyoid Bone

5.8K
The hyoid bone is a small U-shaped bone located in the upper neck at the level of the inferior mandible, with its tips pointing posteriorly. It does not directly articulate with any other bone in the body. The hyoid acts as the attachment site for the tongue, the larynx, and the pharynx. It is held in position by a series of small muscles attached from above or below. These muscles help to move the hyoid up/down or forward/back in coordination with movements of the tongue, larynx, and pharynx...

Summary

The horizontal neck lift directly removes excess neck skin and horizontal creases, offering a new solution for middle and lower neck rejuvenation. This technique addresses limitations of traditional methods for improved patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Aesthetic Medicine
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Traditional neck rejuvenation techniques may not fully address significant horizontal creases and excess skin.
  • The middle and lower neck present unique challenges for rejuvenation.
  • A novel approach is needed for comprehensive neck contouring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the horizontal neck lift procedure.
  • To outline indications and patient counseling for this technique.
  • To detail postoperative care based on the senior author's experience.

Main Methods:

  • Direct excision of a horizontally oriented ellipse of neck skin.
  • Focus on addressing horizontal creases and excess skin in the middle and lower neck.
