What recent patients say
4.9 / 5 · 206 Google reviewsI had an amazing experience with Dr. Schoenfeld. My breathing has improved drastically and the cosmetic aspect of my nose has been transformative. I highly recommend anybody looking to do a septoplasty, rhinoplasty, or septorhinoplasty come to Dr. Schoenfeld. He has been amazing and truly cared.
After a significant three year weight loss (diet and exercise only), I had a facelift/necklift, endoscopic brow lift, and an upper lid blepharoplasty by Dr. Schoenfeld in March of 2025. The results are amazing to me (still don’t know how he got rid of all that loose neck skin). Everything looks extremely natural and has healed very well. Dr. Schoenfeld was a pleasure to work with, from the initial consultation through follow up visits. I am very happy with the results.
I had such a wonderful experience at RENU and I highly recommend Dr. Schoenfeld. I was nervous going into my consultation because I wanted to keep my nose as natural as possible, Dr. Schoenfeld insured me that it would turn out exactly as I imagined and he was right. My nose came out perfect and I love it!! He’s such an amazing doctor and has an incredible team!
I had a septorhinoplasty with Dr. Schoenfeld in March 2025, and now, six months later, I couldn’t be more pleased. The results are exactly what I hoped for—strong, masculine, and perfectly in line with a Middle Eastern aesthetic. My breathing has also improved significantly. Dr. Schoenfeld and his team were outstanding throughout the whole process. He took the time to understand my goals, explained every step of the process thoroughly, and made me feel comfortable and supported from consultation to recovery. His team and surgical coordinator Lissette were equally professional, attentive, and caring throughout the entire journey. Highly recommend!

Dr. Schoenfeld's Surgical Approach
Dr. Philip Schoenfeld approaches the deep plane facelift by working beneath the SMAS layer, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system that forms a supportive sheet of muscle and connective tissue under the skin.
Dr. Philip Schoenfeld approaches the deep plane facelift by working beneath the SMAS layer, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system that forms a supportive sheet of muscle and connective tissue under the skin. This deeper approach distinguishes the technique from traditional facelifts that primarily tighten the skin surface.
In a deep plane facelift, the surgeon performs a sub-SMAS dissection, releasing the ligaments that tether facial tissue as gravity and facial aging pull it downward. Rather than stretching skin, the technique lifts and repositions the deeper layers as a single unit.
