If you want to transform your neck or jawline into a sleeker and more contoured profile- you need to know about submental liposuction. Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld is one of the leading providers of submental or neck liposuction in Washington, D.C.

Terrific experience - wonderful facial by a lovely and talented anesthetist.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I haven't left a review for anybody but I am doing this for Dr. Philip Schoenfeld to express my appreciation for the exceptional care I received after fracturing my nose during martial arts training. The injury was quite severe, leaving my nose crooked and significantly impacting my breathing. Dr. Schoenfeld assessed my situation promptly and recommended surgery to restore my normal breathing. Getting an appointment within the same week was also incredibly helpful. The surgery was a complete success, and I am so pleased with how my nose looks. What has surprised me most is the significant improvement in my breathing - I can breathe more easily now than I ever have before! Thank you so much for your astonishing work.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Shoenfeld is fabulous! Very detailed and listens to what the patient wants/needs.

I recently came back for cheek filler, lip filler, and a little liquid rhinoplasty to refine the tip of my nose —and I’m completely obsessed with the results. As someone who’s normally terrified of needles, Dr. Schoenfeld makes me feel so comfortable and at ease every single time. His technique is gentle, his eye for detail is unmatched, and he really listens to what you want. His entire office staff and front desk team are incredibly kind and accommodating, which makes the whole experience even better. I can’t recommend him enough! 2024 - Update after rhinoplasty - Saw Dr. Schoenfeld for lip filler & cheek filler. I am absolutely obsessed with the results and can see the difference immediately after. His front desk team is so kind and polite - they made scheduling a super easy and convenient process again. Filler was practically painless. 10/10 experience. I will definitely be coming back!! 2023 - Dr. Schoenfeld is incredible. I had an amazing experience and highly recommend him for all rhinoplasty patients. I went to him for a septoplasty and ethnic rhinoplasty. The procedure itself was painless and downtime was minimal. His team was able to fit me in within weeks for the procedure and follow-up appointments— super easy scheduling and consultation process. I definitely saw a noticeable difference after the procedure. The results are fantastic and everything I could wish for!!! Dr. Schoenfeld addressed all of my concerns and made me feel super confident and supported throughout the entire process— terrific bedside manner.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was recommended to Dr. Schoenfeld by an EMT doctor after a second broken nose. I needed a septoplasty/ rhinoplasty. I googled a few other surgeons after, but after having met Dr. Schoenfeld, I knew I was in the right hands — physically and emotionally! His work speaks volumes, but the concern and understanding he brings to his patients’ desired outcome is quite reassuring. After my procedure, I’ve had a few concerns after accidental head bumps (3 yr old!), and his office staff was wonderful and helpful to squeeze me in asap (thanks Ana! (Sp?)). I wholeheartedly would advise considering Dr. Schoenfeld for any ENT needs. Wonderful person, incredible surgeon, amazing staff.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot rave about Dr. Schoenfeld enough. I had a rhinoplasty and septoplasty done 12 years ago with him and it has stood the test of time. Matter of fact, I just saw him today and he even mentioned how amazing my results were after all of this time. Most people don't even know I've had any work done and I believe that is the true testament to Dr. Schoenfeld's artistry. He listens to your concerns, makes his expert recommendations, and follows through with amazing work. He also doesn't push anything on you and will actually tell you if something needs to be done or not. I highly recommend Dr. Schoenfeld and hope that he can bring an improvement to your life as he has done mine.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

In medical terms, the fat beneath your chin is called submental fat. Submental liposuction is a surgical procedure that permanently removes excess fat from this area. This creates a more defined appearance of your jawline, neck, chin, and profile.
Dr. Schoenfeld is a leading facial plastic surgeon in the Washington, D.C., region with the skill and experience needed to create a slim, contoured, and all-around amazing neck area. Next, let’s talk about how to know if this procedure is right for you.
If you want to change the appearance of your neck, chin, or jawline, submental lipo can be a great choice that leads to great results. Here’s what makes you a suitable candidate for this procedure.
Liposuction is likely not the best choice if your neck area is wrinkled, not elastic, or loose. If you fit this description, a neck lift may be a better fit for you. Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld specializes in this procedure as well.
Here are a few factors to consider that can impact the total cost of your procedure. You are able to combine this procedure with other cosmetic procedures.
At Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld, we give each patient individualized care to ensure maximum results. Since the individual needs of the patient may vary, more detailed pricing information will be provided during your consultation.
Your submental lipo consultation at Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld includes a thorough and individualized examination to ensure you are an excellent fit for this procedure. Here’s what your consultation will cover.
After neck lipo, you will need to wear a neck wrap or chin strap for approximately two weeks. This helps ease post-op swelling and also helps achieve your new neck contour.
During your consultation, you will have ample time to ask any questions that you may have. At Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld, we want to ensure that you are fully informed and prepared for your submental liposuction. You will leave your consultation knowing that you have made the best choice of facility, procedure, and surgeon to help you accomplish your goals.

															Submental liposuction is typically done with local anesthesia. This means that the area of the procedure will be numb, but you will remain awake for your procedure. Numbing medication is injected into your face, which can briefly cause pain. 
The procedure itself will not be painful because of the numbing medication, but you may experience some slight pressure and discomfort. After your procedure, you may experience swelling and discomfort, which will get better with time. You will be able to take over-the-counter pain medications after your procedure.
Both chin lipo or buccal fat removal can be effective options, however, it will depend on what your goals are. Chin lipo, which is also referred to as submental or neck lipo, is an excellent option for those looking to improve the appearance of their neck, chin, and jawline. This procedure removes excess fat from these areas, leading to a slimmer, more contoured neck and profile and appearance. 
Buccal fat removal is a different type of cosmetic procedure on a different part of your body. Buccal fat removal is the permanent removal of fat in your cheek area, leading to a slimmer, more contoured cheek and facial appearance. Liposuction is not used in buccal fat removal- the fat is surgically cut out versus suctioned out. 
Renu by Dr. Schoenfeld is pleased to provide both buccal fat removal and submental liposuction in Washington, D.C. Either procedure, or both, may be right for you depending on your goals. Get scheduled for a consultation, we are happy to help you decide.
