There have been alternative versions of the Red Skull: George Maxon's visage was a mask, he would later be killed off by Captain America and declared imposter.

Johann Schmidt was a recipient victim of his own Dust of Death chemical toxin which he had a counteragent/antidote in his blood stream.

the Communist Red Skull Albert Malik was an imposter and may had been wearing a mask as well. Three Red Skulls in existence, Schmidt the more popular.
