**The sublingual vein** is one of the many blood vessels that are found in the human body. It is one of the large arteries and is part of the circulatory system, which carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. The sublingual vein plays an important role not only in the body, but also in aesthetic cosmetology.
It is located behind the lower jaw, just below the tongue. Its diameter varies from 5 mm to several centimeters. Inside the vein there is smooth muscle that allows it to contract and tense when needed to increase blood circulation to a specific area of the body.
The vein of the mandible is considered one of the largest veins in the world. Its branches can spread to various parts of the body, including the head, face, neck, jaw and teeth. Therefore, its importance cannot be overestimated in the matter of maintaining the health of all of the above organs. Its purpose is to ensure proper distribution of blood throughout the body, transport oxygen to all organs and tissues and remove toxins formed during the metabolic process.
Since the sublingual vein is in direct contact with the skin, as well as with the teeth, teeth and salivary glands, it is an object of interest for everyone involved in the art of beauty. Laser liposuction, removal of lumps of fat from the chin and under the tongue, surgery for blocked blood vessels and many other cosmetic procedures often require intervention in this vein. Its sanitation can help speed up the healing of various injuries and damage to the oral organs, such as hemigloss, scar or abscess scar.
