1. 0:15The arteries of the face. We all know
2. 0:18that the face has a rich blood supply.
3. 0:23Meaning there are many arteries there.
4. 0:26And as we agreed before, this gives it
5. 0:31fast healing. Meaning any wound that
6. 0:35occurs heals quickly. But at the same
7. 0:39time, it causes profuse bleeding. A
8. 0:42facial cut bleeds a lot. Anyone shaving
9. 0:45their beard finds a small piece scraped
10. 0:47off with the hair. You find it bleeding
11. 0:50a lot, because the face's blood supply
12. 0:53is rich. The face is rich in blood
13. 0:55supply. The face has two large arteries
14. 0:58. Which are the facial artery. This
15. 1:02here is the whole facial artery that we
16. 1:05see. And then there is another artery.
17. 1:09Coming here from the superficial
18. 1:11temporal. We talked about the
19. 1:13superficial temporal in the skull. From
20. 1:16it emerges the transverse facial artery
21. 1:18. This transverse facial artery is the
22. 1:21one I have numbered two. And the facial
23. 1:24artery I gave number one. These are the
24. 1:26main arteries of the face. But that
25. 1:28does not prevent that I have every
26. 1:31foramen in the skull emitting an artery
27. 1:33. Meaning the mental foramen emits an
28. 1:36artery. The infraorbital foramen emits
29. 1:40an artery with the nerve, of course.
30. 1:43The one emerging like the
31. 1:44zygomaticofacial nerve has an artery
32. 1:46with it. Zygomaticotemporal. This
33. 1:51foramen emits a zygomaticotemporal
34. 1:54nerve and artery. So the arteries are
35. 1:57many. But the major ones are the facial
36. 2:00artery and the transverse facial artery
37. 2:03. The facial artery, as you...
