* '''Langer's lines''' - (skin cleavage lines, cleavage lines) Clinical term for the orientation of reticular dermis collagen bundles causing tensions on skin and subcutaneous tissues. Lines tend to be horizontal in the trunk and neck, and longitudinal in the skin and limbs. (More? [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15791423 PMID 15791423]) | |||
