In platysmaplasty (neck-lift surgery), an incision is made under the chin and the skin is lifted all the way to the Adam's apple (larynx). It is lifted several inches wide of the midline. Fat is cleaned off the paired muscles of the neck. Dr. Daniel Kapp, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, answered on behalf of MDLIVE. A platysmaplasty is an operation of the muscle of the neck called the platysma. Typically a platysmaplasty is used to treat a sagging neck, also known as a turkey wattle.
Ectodermal dysplasias (EDs) are a group of rare genetic multisystem disorders that typically affect structures that arise from the outermost layer of the embryo (ectoderm). EDs typically affect the hair, teeth, nails, and/or skin. Several other ectodermal dysplasia disorders may be characterized by sparse or absent hair, absence or improper functioning of sweat glands, skin abnormalities, malformations of the nose, and/or other abnormalities similar to those associated with EEC syndrome.
