The importance of the platysma muscle and the digastric area
The main culprit behind sagging in the lower face is the platysma. This broad, very thin muscle extends from the clavicle to the jaw. When it loses its tone, it sags, pulling the skin of the neck down with it and creating the dreaded “turkey neck” effect. Also located under the chin are the digastric muscles, which play a crucial role in maintaining the angle of the jaw.
To effectively strengthen these muscles, the key lies in rapid and targeted contractions. Stimulating these muscle fibers helps restore volume and firmness where gravity takes its toll.
Step 1: Platysma impulses
This first exercise aims to awaken and tone the platysma muscle through rapid contractions.
