Back to the youthful profile.
A tight neck that makes all the difference.
With increasing age, the skin loses elasticity, especially in the neck area, which can lead to sagging skin. These changes are often caused by natural collagen loss, environmental influences and gravity. A neck lift, also known as cervicoplasty or platysmaplasty, offers an effective solution to the visible signs of ageing in the neck and chin area. A neck lift can strongly influence the perceived age, as a firm and defined neck is often associated with youth and vitality. Dr. Berkei has been performing this procedure with great expertise for many years, giving you a youthful appearance that will turn back your skin aging by several years.
Treatable problems with a neck lift
A neck lift tightens the skin on the neck and the underlying muscles and reduces excess fat to create a more youthful contour of the neck and jawline. This surgical approach can effectively treat problems such as the “turkey neck”, double chin or simply sagging skin that has developed over the years. Neck lifts are highly customizable, and there are different methods that can be used to improve the appearance of the neck depending on your individual needs. Dr. Berkei’s many years of experience guarantee aesthetically pleasing, natural and harmonious results.
The epitome of youth.
Dr. Berkei performs different types of neck lifts tailored to your specific needs and desires. Options include the deeper “Deep Neck Lift” and the less invasive “Gliding Neck Lift”. These procedures are carried out through small incisions, often hidden in the temples and behind the ears. Sometimes an incision under the chin is also necessary. The skin is repositioned during the procedure to smooth wrinkles and create a more defined neck and jawline, while tightening the muscles for a more youthful appearance.

Discover effective neck rejuvenation.
The Gliding Neck Lift developed by Dr. Berkei is an innovative and minimally invasive alternative to traditional neck lifts. This procedure combines several advanced surgical techniques that Dr. Berkei has developed specifically to reduce excess tissue and effectively contour the neck. By using just three small punctures, excess fatty tissue is removed and the sagging tissue is reduced in a targeted manner. This technique makes it possible to significantly reduce signs of ageing and gives you a rejuvenated and clearly defined appearance without large incisions, visible scars or significant bruising.
Insights from experts
Facts about the Gliding Neck Lift
The Gliding Neck Lift technique
Dr. Berkei’s Gliding Neck Lift procedure uses laser liposuction to remove excess fat through small, approximately 0.5 cm incisions on both earlobes and under the chin. The skin is then detached and lifted, resulting in a significant improvement in the contours of the neck and chin. A key aspect of this procedure is the application of hemostatic mesh, which is fixed in place for two days to help reposition the skin and effectively minimize the risk of swelling and bruising. The innovative mesh used together with the classic tissue preparation maximizes the neck contouring effect and helps to significantly improve the skin structure of the neck. This combination of laser liposuction, skin lifting and hemostatic mesh provides long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results that highlight Dr. Berkei’s expertise in neck rejuvenation.

Deep tightening for effective rejuvenation.
The Deep Neck Lift is a comprehensive surgical procedure performed by Dr. Berkei to significantly improve the contour of the neck and chin. This procedure is particularly suitable for patients with pronounced sagging skin and visible fatty tissue in the neck area who are looking for a significant rejuvenation of their appearance.

Facts about the Deep Neck Lift
The technology of the Deep Neck Lift
For the Deep Neck Lift, Dr. Berkei uses a special surgical technique in which a 3-5 cm long incision is made precisely under the chin. This approach enables her to both remove excess fat and effectively tighten the deeper muscle layers, especially the platysma muscle. The procedure involves careful dissection and repositioning of the skin and tissue to achieve a smooth, taut neck contour and improve the definition of the jawline.
Dr. Berkei places great emphasis on precise techniques and fine details to ensure that the results both look natural and exceed your expectations. By combining fat removal and muscle tightening, the Deep Neck Lift offers a comprehensive solution to age-related neck changes, minimizing recovery time and potential complications through Dr. Berkei’s experienced and gentle approach.

No, a neck lift is a minimally invasive procedure that usually leaves no visible scars. Only the finest cannulas or a laser probe are inserted under the skin via tiny punctures. Swelling and bleeding can be reduced with the help of the finest threads in a “Haemostatic-Net”.
A gliding neck lift is a minimally invasive procedure that is performed under a gentle short anesthetic on an outpatient or inpatient basis. Our patients are fit for social life again after just 2 weeks.
A neck lift is performed on an outpatient basis under a gentle and well-tolerated short anesthetic (TIVA). Through tiny punctures, the suction cannula and a laser probe can be guided under the skin to remove excess fat cells and stimulate skin tightening. Finally, fine threads are applied to the skin “Haemostatic Net”, which are removed after 2-3 days. Slight swelling and bruising will subside after 2-3 weeks. We support the healing process with a specially developed aftercare program to optimally support wound healing.
