Muscles for Facial Expressions01:14

Muscles for Facial Expressions

1.7K
The craniofacial muscles are a collection of approximately 20 thin skeletal muscles situated beneath the skin of the face and scalp. These muscles, primarily responsible for the vast array of human facial expressions, originate from the bones or fibrous structures of the skull and extend outwards to connect with the skin. While most skeletal muscles in the body are enveloped in thick fascia, facial muscles generally have a more delicate fascial covering, with the buccinator muscle being a...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View01:14

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

1.8K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Accessory Structures of the Eye

1.3K
Optical perception, or vision, is an extraordinary sense dependent on converting light signals received via the ocular organs. These organs, known as eyes, are securely positioned within the bony cavities of the skull, called orbits. The orbits serve a dual purpose: a protective shield for the ocular globes and a stable attachment point for the soft ocular tissues. The eye's external protective mechanisms include the eyelids, which are edged with lashes that act as a barrier against foreign...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

1.9K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Association Areas of the Cortex01:21

Association Areas of the Cortex

4.6K
Association areas are regions of the cerebral cortex that do not have a specific sensory or motor function. Instead, they integrate and interpret information from various sources to enable higher cognitive processes such as memory, learning, and decision-making. Some key association areas include the following:
Prefrontal Association Area: This area is located in the frontal lobe and is involved in planning, decision-making, and moderating social behavior. It connects with primary motor areas,...

Cranial Nerves: Types Part II01:22

Cranial Nerves: Types Part II

1.2K
Cranial nerves are responsible for transmitting motor and sensory information between the brain and various parts of the body. There are twelve pairs of cranial nerves. While the first six innervate the head and neck, the latter six nerves innervate the head and neck, as well as organs and tissues in the thoracic and abdominal cavities. They facilitate communication, expression, and autonomic control within the human body.
Facial Nerve (Cranial Nerve VII)
Cranial nerve VII, or the facial nerve,...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Ophthalmology

Background:

  • Evaluating novel surgical browlift techniques is crucial for improving patient outcomes.
  • Minimizing visible scarring and maximizing functional results are key goals in browlift procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and assess a new surgical browlift technique.
  • To evaluate its functional results and scar visibility.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 41 patients undergoing the alternative browlift procedure (January 2015 - June 2019).
  • Assessment of cosmetic and functional outcomes via a nonvalidated questionnaire administered to operated patients.

Main Results:

  • 72.4% of 29 included patients reported satisfaction with scar formation.
  • 72.4% experienced long-term symptom improvement (mean 7.71 ± 2.09/10).
  • 51.7% had recurrence within 19.2 months, none requiring reoperation; 24.1% underwent secondary blepharoplasty.

Conclusions:

  • The novel browlift procedure is a suitable and cost-effective alternative for treating brow ptosis.
  • It offers minimal complications compared to standardized browlift techniques.
  • The technique demonstrates potential for improved functional outcomes and patient satisfaction.
