English term

retaining ligament

English to Polish Medical Medical (general) anatomy
Retaining ligaments attach the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) to the facial skeleton and deep fascia.
They are strong and deep fibrous attachments that original from the periosteum or deep facial fascia and travel perpendicularly through facial layers to insert onto the dermis.
They are consistent anatomic structures present in predictable locations, anchoring and stabilising the skin and facial fascia.
Their positioning is closely related to branches of the facial nerve, making them useful landmarks for facial treatment.
There is inconsistency in the naming of the retaining ligaments, due to subjective interpretation by different investigators.
The ligaments of importance in the eye are the tear trough ligament and orbicularis retaining ligament.
