Scalp Anatomical Characteristics

The layers of the scalp, from the superficial to the deep, are the skin, subcutaneous tissue, galea aponeurosis, loose areolar tissue, and pericranium. The special characteristics are as follows: 1.Between the skin and galea, there are rich connective tissue fibers that make the structures connect firmly. It also allows the scalp flap become less elastic.

2.The scalp is nourished with five pairs of arteries: the supratrochlear artery, supraorbital artery, superficial temporal artery, posterior auricular artery, and occipital artery. The scalp flap can survive in a large size with a narrow and long pedicle.
