Vascular Patterns in the Skin of the Face1
1959
The face is supplied by numerous branches from the external and internal carotid arteries. Except for the principal branches, these vessels have a small diameter and only a few of them pass to the facial skin as direct'' or cutaneous arteries (3, 22). In the skin, cutaneous arteries form a distinct vascular pattern (23) characterized by fine dermal anastomoses (2) which may be modified by age and disease (4).
