What is the Platysma Muscle?

 

Have you often wondered how you make some of your facial expressions? Have you ever thought about how it is you are able to open and close your mouth? Maybe you have even wondered how you are able to frown. Well all of this is possible because of the Playsma Muscle.

The Platysma Muscle is a facial muscle. It is a broad sheet of muscle arising from the pectoral (chest) and deltoid (shoulder) muscles and rises over the collarbone (clavicle), proceeding upward in a slanting manner along sides of the neck.

The muscle draws the lower lip and corner of the mouth sideways and down, partially opening the mouth, sometimes in an expression of surprise, fright, or even a frown.

When all the fibers of the platysma muscle work together, it increases the diameter of the neck as well, as seen during intense breathing from fast running.

It also is the muscle responsible for making the neck tense while men shave.

Effects of Aging 

The platysma is generally tight in young people. However, as people age it can cause the "turkey-gobbler" look or a "double chin" if not taken care of properly.

Platysma muscle bands can become thick and cord like, which causes them to tent the skin of the neck as they contract, tether, or dangle between the jawbone and the collarbone.

It is important to take steps to prevent the "double chin" and take care of the platysma muscle without damaging it by the harmful risks of liposuction.
