Cadaver Workshop
Dermatology 1 December · Daegu Catholic University Medical Center · Daegu, South Korea
Facial Topography: Clinical Anatomy of the Face for Aesthetic Medicine
The purposes of this Cadaver Workshop are to demonstrate morphologic and spatial relationships of the facial muscles with the surrounding structures, especially focusing on the muscles related to wrinkles. In addition, to distinguish the muscles that underlie the wrinkles will be helpful for safer and more-efficient BoNT-A treatments for various wrinkles and filler injection.
This year's program is an excellent opportunity for both beginners and seasoned experts in dermatology. Take part to improve your skills, gain through understanding of and achieve the best possible outcomes.

- Introduction
- The BoNT-A and filler injection are widely-applied techniques for aesthetic medicine. The facial muscles are usually interdigitated with their surrounding muscles in narrow regions. Thus, when injecting BoNT-A into the facial muscles, its spreading and effect should be considered based on the accurate anatomical structures.
- Materials / Method
- During dissecting cadavers, I would like to show how to approach the anatomical structures of the face. The trajectory of the fibers of the facial muscles and their anatomic relationships can be demonstrated to understand facial expressions, which will be helpful when designing safer and more effective BTX-A injection therapies in the areas and when performing various types of facial surgery.
- Results
- In this workshop, I would like to demonstrate (1) the facial muscles in the upper, middle, and lower face, (2) whole running courses of the facial artery and superficial temporal artery, (3) nerve and vessels of the face related to various procedures for the safe and efficient clinical applications.
- Conclusion
- Through this workshop, I would like to introduce anatomical findings based on in-depth morphological studies. In addition, the static and dynamic facial ultrasonography imaging related to various procedures for the safe and efficient clinical applications will be demonstrated.
