Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tension lines, also known as cleavage lines or Langer's lines, are parallel to the orientation of collagen fibers in the dermis of the skin. These lines indicate the direction of the tension forces applied to the skin and are used by surgeons to plan incisions and wound closures. Tactile discs, wrinkles, and stretch marks may also be related to the dermal collagen fibers but do not specifically indicate their orientation.
