| What is the occipitalis (muscle) and what does it do? | occipitalis: - back of the epicranius - draws the scalp backward |
| What are the temporalis (muscles) and what do they do? | temporalis: - sides of the epicranius - as one of the "chewing muscles", aids in mastication by coordinating with the masseter to open and close the mouth and bring the jaw forward or backward |
| What is the epicranius (muscle)? | epicranius: (aka "occipitofrontalis") - broad muscle that covers the top of the skull - consists of the occipitalis and frontalis |
| What is the corrugator (muscle) and what does it do? | corrugator: - an eyebrow muscle located beneath the frontalis and orbicularis oculi. - draws the eyebrow down and wrinkles the forehead vertically |
| What is the orbicularis oculi (muscle) and what does it do? | orbicularis oculi: - an eyebrow muscle that is the ring of the eye socket - it closes the eyes |
| What is the levator palpebrae superioris (muscle) and what does it do? | levator palpebrae superioris: - an eyebrow muscle that controls the eyelid and can be easily damaged during makeup applicattion. |
| What are the (3) muscles of the ear? | the (3) muscles of the ear are called "auricularis muscles" |
| What are the auricularis (muscles) and what do they do? | auricularis: - 3 muscles of the ear - they work together to move the ear upward, forward or backward |
| What are the (3) muscles of the eyebrow? | corrugator orbicularis oculi levator palpebrae superioris muscle |
| What are the (2) primary muscles of the nose? | procerus nasalis |
| What does the procerus (muscle) on the nose do? | procerus: - lowers the eyebrows and causes wrinkles across the bridge of the nose. |
| What does the nasalis (muscle) on the nose do? | nasalis -a two-part muscle that covers the nose and includes the "transverse" part and the "alar" part, which flair the nostrils. |
| What do the corrugator and procerus (muscles) make up and why is this important for estheticians? | corrugator + procerus = glabella these are the muscles that are often injected with the neuromodulator, Botox, to stop frowning. A neuromodulator inhibits a muscle's movements. |
| What is the buccinator (muscle) and what does it do? | buccinator: - an important mouth muscle that is a thin, flat muscle of the cheek between the upper and lower jaw - compresses the cheeks and expels air, as in when blowing a whistle |
| What is the triangularis (muscle) and what does it do? | triangularis: aka "depressor anguli oris" - an important mouth muscle - extends alongside the chin - pulls down the corners of the mouth |
| What is the depressor anguli oris (muscle) and what does it do? | depressor anguli oris: aka triangularis - an important mouth muscle - extends alongside the chin - pulls down the corners of the mouth |
| What is the mentalis (muscle) and what does it do? | mentalis - an important mouth muscle - elevates the lower lip and raises + wrinkles the skin of the chin |
| What is the orbicularis oris (muscle) and what does it do? | orbicularis oris: - an important mouth muscle - flat band around the upper and lower lips - compresses, contracts, puckers, and wrinkles the lips |
| What is the levator anguli oris (muscle) and what does it do? | levator anguli oris: - an important mouth muscle - associated w/ smiling |
| What is the risorius (muscle) and what does it do? | risorius: - an important mouth muscle - draws the corners of the mouth out + back when grinning |
| What is the levator labii superioris (muscle) and what does it do? | levator labii superioris: also "quadratus labii superioris" - an important mouth muscle - associated with lifting the wings of the nose and upper lip |
| What is the quadratus labii superioris (muscle) and what does it do? | quadratus labii superioris aka "levator labii superioris" - an important mouth muscle - associated with lifting the wings of the nose and upper lip |
| What is the zygomaticus major and minor (muscles) and what do they do? | zygomaticus major and minor: - important mouth muscles - muscle that extend fromt he zygomatic bone to the angle of the mouth - work together to elevate the lip, as in laughing |
| What are the main muscles of mastication? | masseter temporalis |
| What is the masseter (muscle) and what does it do? | masseter: - as one of the "chewing muscles", aids in mastication by coordinating with the masseter to open and close the mouth and bring the jaw forward or backward |
| What do the masseter and temporalis (muscles) make up and why is this important for estheticians? | masseter + temporalis = the "chewing muscles" estheticians need to know the location of these muscles when performing facial massage and electrical modality treatments |
| What are the (2) muscles of the neck? | platysma sternocleidomastoid |
