Anatomical and Ultrasonographic Analyses of the Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi Muscle at the Level of the Nasal Ala

Int. j. morphol; 42 (1), 2024
SUMMARY: We aimed to determine the width of the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle (LLSAN) at the level of the nasal ala through cadaveric dissections and ultrasonography (US), to provide essential anatomical information for use during both invasive and noninvasive procedures in the nasal ala r...

La importancia del conocimiento de la anatomía facial en armonización facial
The knowledge of facial anatomy in facial harmonization

La odontología argentina ha considerado reciente- mente la incorporación de armonización orofacial en odontología, acompañando los cambios que vienen sucediendo en el mundo con respecto a este tema. Países con especialización en armonización orofacial en odontología, como Brasil, 2019 o Venezuel...

Prospective study of the aesthetic effect of botulinum toxin a when injected into the muscles of facial expression

Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A) causes an anticholinergic effect on neuronal fibers, which control muscle contraction and autonomic disorders. Thus, it has been widely used in facial aesthetics, decreasing the action of motor muscles and consequent wrinkles. This preliminary study evaluated the effect of...
