The SMAS is clinically important in facial plastic surgery for rhytidectomy (facelift procedure).During this procedure, the SMAS is accessed through an arch-shaped incision anterior to the ear; a portion of the SMAS is then excised and the remaining SMAS is stretched by drawing it posterior-ward and suturing it, thus making the skin of the face which overlies the SMAS taut.

The two most prevalent shape-memory alloys are copper-aluminium-nickel and nickel-titanium (), but SMAs can also be created by alloying zinc, copper, gold and iron.Although iron-based and copper-based SMAs, such as Fe-Mn-Si, Cu-Zn-Al and Cu-Al-Ni, are commercially available and cheaper than NiTi, NiTi-based SMAs are preferable for most applications due to their stability and practicability [1 ...
