What is turkey neck?

A lax skin that hangs loosely under the chin is known as turkey neck.

How does it happen?

As one starts getting old, the skin starts to lose it form, often getting collected at a place. Thus, aging is one of the many reasons of a turkey neck. The other reasons can be extreme fluctuations in the weight of a person. Genetics can be another reason too.

Causes of turkey neck?

3. Extreme weight loss, poor diet, and sedentary lifestyle could also be a reason.

When the skin starts to lose its elasticity and starts developing platysmal bands (thin bands of muscles located in the neck), turkey neck situation arises. As one age, these bands become more prominent and an enhanced turkey neck becomes visible.

When does it start appearing?

In case of genetic, mostly in the late 20s. However, most women notice turkey necks in their mid-40s and later.
