Our objective imaging diagnostic study using FACS, MDCT, and MRI corroborated the anti-aging medical science about the facial expression muscles related to youthful facial appearance. The results of this research could contribute to the elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the facial aging process and to the development of cosmetology.
