The platysma muscles are two paired superficial muscles that often obscure the angle between the jaw and neck. The muscles can also be seen as vertical ‘bands’ sagging under the chin and creating a ‘Turkey Neck’. These muscles can be approached from a small incision under the chin and modified in a number of ways to improve the contour of the jawline. Surgery on the platysma muscles requires that the patient wear a compressive dressing for several days following the operation.
