Model. 1 Superficial temporal artery
Standart fronto-temporal skin incision, right side. The superficial temporal artery (STA) is exposed, presenting the parietal and frontal branch. The STA runs with the galea, above the temporalis musle fascia and just below the skin.

Model. 2 Temporalis muscle
The dissection is advanced anteriorly (the frontal branch of the STA was transected). The temporalis muscle fascia is fully exposed. A vascularised pericranium flap is elevated, which can be later used for dural closure of frontalis sinus defect.

Model. 3 Interfascial dissection
Interfascial dissection between the superficial and deep temporalis fascia, elevating the superficial temporalis fascia together with the interfascial fat pad, thus exposing the lateral orbital rim.
Interfascial dissection between the superficial and deep temporalis fascia, elevating the superficial temporalis fascia together with the interfascial fat pad, thus exposing the lateral orbital rim.
Model. 4 Lateral Orbital Rim And Zygomatic Arch
Interfascial dissection allows for a correct subperiosteal exposure of the lateral orbital rim and zygomatic arch which is an important step fo the fronto-orbito-zygomatic approach.
