Anatomical findings in fresh cadaver dissections. Ten consecutive cadaveric face and neck dissection (20 hemi-necks and faces) of the superficial musculo-aponeurotic system (SMAS) and platysma areas were carried out to study the innervation of the platysma muscle. Dissections were performed using a facelift approach. The skin and the SMAS were raised very cautiously to reveal the underlying nerves. Innervation of the platysma muscle is shown: The platysma muscle is innervated by the cervical branch of the facial nerve that is connected to the nerves arising from the cervical plexus. A constant anastomotic system between the cervical branch of the facial nerve and the branches of the cervical plexus may be responsible of the platysmal bands recurrence after a facelift procedure, when a complete section of the platysma is not carried out. 1. Marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve. 2. Cervical branches of the facial nerve. 3. Branches of the cervical plexus. Arrow: Anastomoses between the cervical branch of the facial nerve and branches of the cervical plexus
