platysma
The platysma is a thin, flat muscle located in the neck, extending from the base of the jaw down to the collarbone. This superficial muscle is responsible for actions such as pulling down the corners of the mouth and lowering the lower lip, as seen when expressing sadness or fright. It also aids in moving the skin of the neck and acts indirectly to help lower the jaw.
