Submuscular Facial Fixation (Myo-Osseous Fixation) Using Microincision Microscrew Device, Injectable Glues and Adhesives, and Method and Device for Therapy of Migraine and Related Headaches

摘要

Procedures for altering the surface of the human face or other body parts by tethering muscle origins, extending muscular attachments and origins, and tethering muscles by causing adhesions of facial muscles which are not naturally present using specific methods materials and devices, and procedures for treating headaches by implanting a device through a micro incision in skin is are described. A microincision microscrew device and methods of using the device in surgical procedures is described. The use of a puncture based injection of bioadhesive into a described functional fibrofatty plane on the undersurface and throughout the muscle proper without use of incisional surgery is also described. Osseous bolting and osseous screws fixating soft tissue elevation via deep muscle tethering to facial bone is shown causing suspension of upper, mid, and lower facial soft tissue structures in a method that is adaptable to other body regions. Additionally, the combined use of screws with bioadhesives and single use of injectable bioadhesives are described.
