Gluteal anatomy
Medical Tattoo: Superficial Gluteal Anatomy: Gluteus Maximus: Location: The largest and most superficial gluteal muscle, covering the buttocks. Origin: Posterior part of the iliac crest, sacrum, coccyx, and the sacrotuberous ligament. Insertion: Gluteal tuberosity of the femur and the iliotibial band (IT band). Function: Extends and laterally rotates the hip. It is involved in movements like standing up from a seated position, climbing stairs, and running. Gluteus Medius: Location: Located beneath the gluteus maximus, on the lateral aspect of the pelvis. Origin: Outer surface of the ilium, between the anterior and posterior gluteal lines. Insertion: Lateral surface of the greater trochanter of the femur. Function: Abducts and medially rotates the hip. It helps stabilize the pelvis when walking or standing on one leg. Gluteus Minimus: Location: Located beneath the gluteus medius, on the deeper part of the pelvis. Origin: Outer surface of the ilium, between the anterior and inferior gluteal lines. Insertion: Anterior surface of the greater trochanter of the femur. Function: Abducts and medially rotates the hip, assisting in pelvic stabilization. Iliotibial Band (IT Band): Location: A thick band of connective tissue running down the lateral side of the thigh, from the hip to the tibia. Function: Works in conjunction with the gluteus maximus and tensor fasciae latae muscles to stabilize and move the knee joint, especially during activities like walking and running. Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL): Location: Situated at the anterior part of the outer thigh, overlapping with the IT band. Origin: Anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the iliac crest. Insertion: IT band, which attaches to the tibia. Function: Assists in hip abduction and flexion, and helps stabilize the pelvis and knee through the IT band.

Applying: Applying our temporary tattoos is quick and simple; all you need is a wet tissue. Ensure your skin is clean, dry, and free from lotion, oils, and makeup. First, remove the clear protective top sheet. Then, press the tattoo firmly onto your skin with the design facing down. Hold a wet cloth against the back of the tattoo, pressing down to thoroughly wet the paper. After 30-45 seconds, carefully peel off the paper backing.
