turkey neck

Saggy throat skin

Turkey neck is loose, sagging skin on the human neck that resembles the wrinkled wattle of a turkey.

The condition typically develops with age as skin loses elasticity and underlying muscles weaken: She's considering a neck lift to fix her turkey neck.

The term is unflattering but commonly used in discussions of aging and cosmetic procedures.
