In most cases, it is limited to the exposed parts of the deceased. * The face and hands - This is what the viewers see.
Modern
26
Extended their practices upon the entire remains. * Replaced missing fingernails * Bowed legs (broken, reset and splinted). * Damaged eyes replaced (colored stones, small onions). * Non-viewed scars and wounds were addressed. * Did this due to the circle of necessity.
Egyptian
27
The belief that the soul will return to the body after 3,000 years.
Circle of Necessity
28
1. Average cases 2. Others cases where visible parts by me distorted.
Types of cases requiring restoration
29
* Corrective posing of the features. * Cosmetic application.
Average case
30
* Injury/trauma * Disease * Postmortem tissue changes.
Other cases where visible parts may be distorted or destroyed.
31
1. Minor Restorations 2. Major Restorations
Classification of restorations
32
Those requiring the minimum effort, skill or time to complete.
Minor Restorations
33
* Correcting a misaligned fracture * Hypodermic tissue building * Reduction of a swelling * Subtissue surgery (mouth or eyes) * Waxing (lips, abrasions, sutures, razor burns) * Suturing clean cuts * Small hair replacements (eyebrows, eyelash, temporal hair) * Bleaching and concealing minor discolorations * Removal and restoration of fever sores (scabs)
Examples of Minor Restorations
34
Those which: * Require a long period of time. * Are extensive * Require technical skill
Major Restorations
35
* Restoration of a full head of hair (manual restoration, not a wig). * Subtissue surgery of a swollen neck. * Problems with buck teeth. * Deep wound preparation (after extensive tissue removal). * Care of deep lacerations. * Multiple fractures * 3rd degree and 4th degree burns. * Skin slip * Dismemberment or loss of a part.
Major Restorations: Examples that require a long period of time and are extensive.
36
* Artifically construct a distorted portion of the face or cranium. * Wax surfacing over a large wound. * Modeling a facial feature. * Masking a completely discolored face or large post-mortem stain. * Matching wax with complexion.
Major Restoration: Examples that require technical skill
37
1. Should be secured form someone in authority (PRD). 2. Written permission. 3. Secure permission for both embalming and restorative art. 4. Why secure permission? Incisions and excisions necessary to a major restoration can be legally described as mutilations.
Permission to undertake a major restoration
38
Primary right of disposition.
PRD
39
Those incurred in the preparation of the deceased. * Swelling * Leakage * Tissue Discoloration
Restorations for which permission is not sought.
40
1. Moles, warts, scars, birthmarks, etc. 2. Eyeglasses - Always/Never wore 3. False Teeth- Always/Never wore 4. Mustache, facial hair.
Distinguishing Characteristics Not to be Altered or Concealed
41
1. Pre-embalming treatments (Performed before embalming). 2. Embalming treatments (Performed during embalming). 3. Post-embalming treatments (performed during embalming)
Time-table of Treatments
42
* Corrective positing of the features- eyes, mouth. * Sutures to hold muscles or flaps of skin in position (temporary suture). * Resetting a dislocated fracture. * Puncture of blisters. * Correction of minor buck-teeth problems.
Pre-embalming Treatments
43
* Internal tissue building or coloring. * Limiting a swelling * Maintaining feature corrections.
Embalming Treatments
44
* Removal of scabs * Excision of diseased or mutilated tissues. (If causing an extra distortion of the face, remove before embalming). * Suturing of incisions, lacerations, excisions. * Reduction of swelling. * Hypodermic tissue building.
Post-Embalming Treatments
45
The study of the structures and **surface** markings of the face and features. * Deals only with the surface.
Physiognomy
46
Lack of symmetry, balance, or proportion. * Refers to differences of paired features.
Asymmetry
47
The most common characteristics of each feature: typical, common, average. * Refers to the most common characteristic of each part of a feature (or face). * Ex: when referring to a photograph during a restoration, an understanding of the norm will allow the restorative artist to recognize any "deviations" and recreate them on the deceased.
