facial muscle - any of the skeletal muscles of the face skeletal muscle, striated muscle - a muscle that is connected at either or both ends to a bone and so move parts of the skeleton; a muscle that is characterized by transverse stripes buccinator muscle, cheek muscle, musculus buccinator...
“tell” the muscle to move. Messages are carried by a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. Botox blocks the release of acetylcholine; as a result, the muscle doesn’t receive the message to contract. A very fine needle is used to deliver 1 to 3 injections into your facial muscles. Your ...
An EEG after 12 h showed a mild, irregular low-voltage right temporal slowing during drowsiness, and muscle artifacts from continuous rhythmic left facial movements. One day after admission, during an episode of increased twitching, an F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) posit...
The cheek lifts when a person closes his or her eyes The neck muscle tightens when a person tries to whistle Facial twitching in the cheek and chin Facial muscles become tight, leading to facial pain and headaches A deeper cheek crease forms on the affected side of the face, causing the ...

Some emphasis is given to data indicating possible neurotrophic control of genetic activity of muscle. It is considered that oro-facial growth may be conceived of as a homeostatically controlled series of processes in which the neural center regulates the peripheral tissues and the periphery, in ...
The correct placement of fNMES electrodes can be deter- mined by gradually increasing stimulation intensity until twitches of the intended muscle are seen. This can be done easily and rapidly by visual inspection by the experimenter, for example at the beginning of an experiment. Another solution...

Studies looking at thermal stimuli in horses showed that some animals responded with a skin twitch, although others did not and that this was not necessarily related to their breed61. In cats, pain scoring is shown to be affected by demeanour. Shy and fearful individuals may present with high...
