Oops Bill, Mr. Ma is one of my favorite artists.
Bill Lao Jan 26, 2006:
Jianjun, I happen to think that Mr Ma is from Tianjin, and so perhaps there is a grudge between you and Mr.Ma. It is a little interesting to think so.

The face becomes bony.

这是在说人的销售状态,所谓骷髅化样我觉得就是指皮包骨,骨形显现,马三立生前就是这个形象。供老兄参考。

Thanks weiwei.
neutral Bill Lao : to connect 骷髅化 with 马三立 or other known name is something disagreeable to me. Don't you think so?

Thanks Bill. No I meant Mr. Ma had a bony face. 骷髅化 is surely disagreeable to us Chinese in that it mentions 骷髅(skeleton/skull - in a sense)
agree Xiaoping Fu : 有长那么大招风耳朵的骷髅吗?:-D

worn to a skeleton

worn to a skeleton 瘦得象骷髅 指外表象
Worn to a skeleton, she died before she was thirty-five.

Matthew Henry also says: "and though the fits go off presently, yet they leave him so weak, that he pines away, is worn to a skeleton;

He was worn to a skeleton, worn through. so that great sores were all over his back, and filthy beyond description.
Peer comment(s):

neutral chica nueva : worn is like worn out with tiredness or work or worry, or else it is literary and a little old-fashioned worn thin,worn down

takes the form of a skeleton

Couldn't find anything concrete on this. Tried a few search terms, such as "facial skeleton", "aging face" and "resorption", but to no avail.

Perhaps "skeletonizing" is correct. At the first glance, i think it is "skeletoning", no "skeletonizing" , so I said it makes no sense.

(The face becomes) skeletonized.

Yes, you are right!

said Dr. Amar he combines full-face FAMI with surgery below the jawline for patients who have a skinny, skeletonized face and a sagging neck--typically due to weight loss.
