Abstract

Because of its intimate anatomic relation to the skin of the neck, the platysma muscle plays a central role in the appearance of the neck. This discussion outlines the role of the platysma muscle in cervical flaccidity and presents the way to correct deformities of the neck caused by this flaccidity.
