title: [STUDYING OF BIOMECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SKIN IN THE MASTOID REGION WHILE THE COSMETIC OTOPLASTY PERFORMANCE].
abstract: The present methods for a droopy ears correction do not guarantee the optimal cosmetic effect achievement. Optimal borders of deformity in cutaneo-adiposal flap of the mastoid region while cosmetic otoplasty performance were studied. Basing on analysis of biomechanical investigations, there were determined the optimal corners of stretching and direction of the strength vector in cutaneo-adiposal flaps while otoplasty performance, securing conditions for surgical intervention performance with preservation of a natural topographo-anatomical ratios in the head and neck tissues.
