Cutis laxa is an extremely rare genetic disorder of connective tissue. The striking dermatologic features are loose skin folds and skin laxity. Due to these folds the patients appear to be prematurely aged. Plastic surgery can improve these changes. This treatment is especially indicated in patients with the autosomal dominant type of cutis laxa where internal manifestations do not occur. We report the case of a seventeen years old boy with cutis laxa and surgical therapy.
