INTRODUCTION: The superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) is a controversial functional fibro-adipose layer that connects the mimic muscles to the skin and is involved in a variety of facial mimic expressions. The presence of muscle fibers within SMAS fibrous septa is hypothetical. The present study analyzed SMAS fibrous septa composition for the existence of striated muscle cells.
METHODS: Histological serial sections of the sample borders (n=107) of 19 in sano-resected and diagnosed cutaneous tumors of the midfacial region were investigated. Immunohistochemical (actin and myosin) and hematoxylin and eosin staining were performed to detect striated muscle cells in SMAS fibrous septa.
RESULTS: A fibro-neuro-musculo-vascular functional unit within SMAS fibrous septa was demonstrated. SMAS striated muscle cells were morphologically independent from preparotideal and periorbital mimic muscles. Intraseptal blood vessels draining the superficial and deep SMAS vascular system were described.
CONCLUSIONS: Striated muscle cells were demonstrated within SMAS fibrous septa. Nerve cells and vascular tissue together with the SMAS fibro-muscular meshwork demonstrated an autonomous operating functional unit that hypothetical modulated individual mimic expression contributing to the diversity of mimic expression. The SMAS develops with mimic muscle contractions as a synergetic effect during facial crease and fold formation processes.
