What does the inferior labial artery supply?

  1. Blood to the upper lip

  2. Blood to the lower lip

  3. Blood to the chin

  4. Blood to the side of the nose

The correct answer is: Blood to the lower lip

The inferior labial artery is responsible for supplying blood to the lower lip. This artery branches off from the facial artery and provides the necessary oxygenated blood to the tissues of the lower lip, which is critical for maintaining healthy tissue and supporting functions such as speech and eating. While other arteries supply blood to the structures of the face, the inferior labial artery specifically targets the lower lip area. Understanding the specific functions of various arteries is vital for estheticians who work closely with clients’ facial aesthetics and health.
