Program Overview:
Introductory Lectures:
- What to Expect From This Course by Dr. Howard Webster
- Philosophy of Understanding and Principles of Facial Anatomy by Dr. Bryan Mendelson
- Hands-On Cadaver Dissection (Right Side of Face):
Session A: Setting Up and Preliminary Dissection:
- Markings for safe and effective deep plane surgery
- Infiltration for hydrodissection, hemostasis, and anesthesia
- Incisions for inconspicuous scars
- Subcutaneous undermining up to where the deep plane becomes accessible: identifying the platysma-auricular fascia and the orbicularis oculi and platysma muscles
Session B: The Premasseter Spaces:
- Accessing the deep plane safely using the premasseter and prezygomatic spaces
Session C: Prezygomatic Space:
- Precise submuscular lower lid dissection
- Dissection into the prezygomatic and premaxillary spaces
Session D: Upper Premasseter Area of Important Anatomy (“the Mess”):
- Identifying the mesozygomaticus between the two spaces, the zygomatic ligaments, and zygomaticus major muscle (“red carpet”)
- Connecting the two spaces safely to create the complete composite flap
Session E: The Neck:
- Extending the deep plane dissection safely into the neck; elevating the composite flap from its posterior attachments: the platysma-auricular ligament and the cervical retaining ligaments
- Performing a platysma myotomy, partial versus complete, platysma transection
- Placement of key sutures to re-create the retaining ligaments
- Closing the SMAS and closing the skin without tension
Ancillary Procedures:
- Midline deep neck anatomy and access to the subplatysma structures (SMG, digastric muscles, subplatysmal fat)
- Temporal lift as an adjunct to face lift
- Lip lift
