Turkey chin or turkey neck is the excess loose skin at the front of the neck. This is like a turkey wattle hanging loosely in front of your neck. The platysma muscle may be toned down but the loose skin such as this turkey chin that covers the platysma will still remain.

To remove this loose skin, a surgery may be recommended especially if the skin really has to be lifted up. It may cost you much money but the result of the surgery will be money well spent. There are also some turkey chin exercises that you can do for your neck skin. But before you do the exercises, you should be aware of the important facts about your neck. The neck is a sensitive formation of bones with delicate nerves that might be harmed by harsh exercises.

Raise your head towards the sky then try to press your chin against your chest. Get a good stretch and repeat this exercise to work out your platysma muscle. You can stretch and contract these muscles to tone up that problem area.

The next exercise should be done without moving. Press your tongue against the roof of your mouth and hold it there with pressure applied to the roof. You will feel your neck muscles tighten. Do this exercise a good ten to twenty times.

The next exercise can be quite funny to onlookers while exercise your platysma. You stick your tongue out as far as possible then put it back in your mouth. This also stretches the platysma. Do this as many times as you feel comfortable.

After doing consistently these regular turkey chin exercises, you will notice changes in your loose skin. It may not be noticeable at first because loose skin is hard to treat. Just continue the exercise until you reach your desired neck structure.
