Bradley Calobrace and Dr. Juan Quintero use advanced liposuction techniques to refine the neckline with precision, restoring balance and confidence to your profile. Submental liposuction offers immediate, visible improvement with minimal downtime, helping you look refreshed, refined, and more like yourself.

Corrective scar revision surgery helped some, still have major scars that need to be covered.

I visited Dr. Calobrace because of hearing from friends that they were very satisfied with the procedures they had performed by him. He was highly praised not only for his knowledge and great job that he done but by his bed side manner and his overall kindness and great patient interaction. And I must say that I agree. I was somewhat nervous but him as well as his staff were so friendly and made me feel comfortable. I’m very happy with my breast augmentation. I would like to see him in the future for other procedures that I’d like to have. I will definitely refer him to others looking for a doctor in this field. 

Everything went smoothly from consult to surgery and after!

I’m highly satisfied with my experience because the results have exceeded my expectations, both physically and emotionally. The care I received—from the initial consultation to my post-op follow-ups—made me feel confident, supported, and well-informed at every step. The surgeon’s skill and attention to detail are evident in my outcome, and the recovery process (after the first week) has been smoother than I anticipated.

Dr. Calobrace is an amazing surgeon who has more than exceeded my expectations. From my consultation to my 8 week follow up yesterday he has been the most kind and genuine provider. He listens and provides honest feedback. I knew what I wanted may be unrealistic considering what I started with but he is an absolute miracle worker. It’s absolutely amazing what he has done for me and I couldn’t be any happier than I am with the results! My breasts are perfect and look exactly like what I wanted! I really don’t know how he does it but I am truly thankful for his expertise and genuinely appreciate him. He has given me confidence I’ve never had! I have to also mention all of the staff have been incredible. From check in to check out everyone is kind and warm. The nurses are amazing and have provided support for me throughout this process. Lindsey was my nurse a few times and she is fantastic! She’s very friendly and made me feel comfortable during my appointments. This place provides the best possible service and I would highly recommend to anyone! 

The staff were phenomenal, have been since day 1. Dr.Calobrace always very attentive and personable. 

Dr. Calobrace is simply the best hands down.

Dr. Calobrace took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and explained how he would achieve it.

This was my second time as a patient with Dr. Calobrace. As someone living in another state I was nervous it might be a little tricky coordinating my procedures. It wasn’t at all. From the beginning my appointments were made (this was even seven months in advance) and I was able to plan accordingly with ease. Dr. Calobrace and everyone in the office made me feel comfortable and at ease. I had quite a bit done and am now ten weeks out and feeling (and looking!) great! There’s nothing I wouldn’t trust Dr. Calobrace to do!

I came in for a scar revision after my breast lift. Everything went well.

Preop and Postop care was fantastic and my results were fantastic as well

Finally met Dr. Calobrace after years of hearing so many wonderful things about him. He was so professional, straightforward and honest.His staff was friendly and made me feel so comfortable while answering all my questions.Looking forward to my next visit😊

I have been a patient/client of Dr.Calobrace since 2003 and have always been given the best of care, received remarkable results and all given with a wonderful bedside manner. He is a perfectionist and will not stop until he is happy with the results. The staff is the best bar none.

He made me look & feel so much better. Glad to have my confidence back! He truly is great at what he does!! The staff has always been so wonderful. Thank you all so much!!

Dr. Calobrace is welcoming and knowledgeable. He wanted to make sure I was informed all the way around. His surgery "fellow", Dr. Keane was an added bonus! The ancillary staff was wonderful, too.

There is no other place I would choose for plastic surgery. The staff goes above and beyond and Dr Calobrace is the best. You are in good hands when you choose Dr Calobrace and his team to care for you.

Dr. Quintero was better than I could have ever dreamed. I got a breast lift with implants and he suggested adding Morpheus (skin tightening procedure). I am 6 weeks post op and I am IN LOVE with the way they look. I gave him 3 different sizes to decide from and he picked the perfect one. I am constantly getting compliments and told that it doesn’t look like I even had implants. Not only is he skilled but he sat with me before surgery and talked me through my worries on recovery having surgery and kids at home. He eased my mind every step of the way. He never sugar coated anything, he gave it to me honest and I appreciated feeling like a person and not another paycheck ❤️❤️❤️ highly recommend him and his staff and team ❤️❤️

Dr. Calobrace and his team are absolutely amazing! My experience from initial consultation to all post op appointments has been great. Dr. Calobrace came highly recommended by friends and I am so glad I chose him. I was skeptical that my breasts could look normal again after losing almost 80 lbs. I am almost 8 weeks post op and my breasts look phenomenal! They look exactly like I wanted them to which is incredible considering what he had to work with. Dr. Calobrace is truly a miracle worker and I am so grateful for his expertise and the wonderful care he has provided. His staff are also fantastic and the entire atmosphere is very cozy and welcoming. Lindsay, one of his nurses, has been incredibly exceptional as well. She has assisted me throughout my post op journey and is very kind and truly cares about my well-being. This was the best possible (and ideal) experience I could have asked for!

I highly recommend this plastic surgery center. My interactions with the staff (Rona, Kate, Beth, Felix, Jessie and probably some I've missed) have all gone very smoothly. Plus, Dr. Quintero's energy and enthusiasm are contagious!

I used Caloaesthetics to have a breast reconstruction after my encapsulated breast augmentation from about twenty years prior with another plastic surgeon. I’m now going on week four of recovery and could not be more happy with the progress I’m making & what I can see will be my final results in hopefully a few more weeks. Each staff member, including the masseuse in their CaloSpa have all been so accommodating and professional. Dr Calobrace put me at ease from our very first pre-op visit & i would recommend this facility to anyone looking to approve themself for the best version of you!

As an active, petite 44-year old woman of mixed race and coming up on 15 years with my existing implants and mastopexy.
It was important for me to not only find a surgeon that I connected with, but also one who was realistic about expectations, provided options and education. I was really excited about the new technology of the Motiva implant. I sought out 3 consults: one in NYC, one local (CO) and finally Dr. Quintero in Louisville.

After two virtual consults with Dr. Quintero, many conversations with his office/support staff (thank you for your patience) and my own extensive research, choosing Dr. Quintero was a no brainer. Did I mention what a fabulous dresser and how funny he is?!?

My goal was to go "smaller" and we agreed upon a implant replacement, pocket exchange, mesh bra and over the muscle (previously sub-muscular) procedure. I went from 300 cc's to 320 cc's, at 7 weeks post-op and continuing to see the amazing, meticulous work and detail. Though the scarring isn't non-existent, it is very, very minimal and the youthfulness and perkiness without a bra, just wow! Thank you so much Dr. Quintero and team!!!

I had an amazing experience. The nurse and surgeon made me feel at ease. There was no pressure to commit. They told me to go home and think about it. I would highly recommend them.

From the moment I walked in the door, I felt welcomed. Everyone is so nice, so knowledgeable. Dr. Calobrace listened to my concerns and we have a plan moving forward. I cannot wait to see my results.

Dr. Quintero and Brooke were amazing, professional and very friendly! From the minute you walk in till the end of our appointment everyone makes you feel welcomed!

Sweetest people. I absolutely love them. I had a breast augmentation done by Dr.Calobrace and I would go to him again in the future. I’ve had the best experience.

Dr Cal and the staff are all super kind and friendly. They answered all of my questions and eased my mind. Definitely looking forward to having work done in the future.

I always love the energy of this entire facility! Dr. Calobrace and his staff are always willing to help in any way they can with a vibrant glow surrounding each member of the team! I always look forward to all of my Calospa appointments ♥️

I am absolutely over the moon with my results from Dr. Tracey Cook! From start to finish, she took the time to thoroughly explain every detail, ensuring I felt completely comfortable and confident in my decisions. She was incredibly meticulous in selecting the perfect implant size and profile to align with my goals. Her expertise and attention to detail made all the difference. I couldn’t be happier, and I feel more confident and feminine than ever. If you’re considering surgery, you will be in the best hands with her.

Dr. Calobrace and his staff are very friendly and welcoming. Very knowledgeable and clearly explained the procedure and process. Couldn’t be happier with how I was treated here. 

CaloAesthetics exceeded all my expectations. I can’t express how smoothly the process went from initial consultation all the way through post op; Dr Calobrace and his expert team have me as a patient for life. I’m already thinking about my next procedure

Dr. Calobrace & his staff are amazing. I have been a patient for over 15 years. They always go above & beyond to help with me with any questions or concerns I have & never feel rushed. I truly appreciate each & every one of them!

So pleased with my surgery- It’s been 7 weeks and I’m healing nicely- Dr Calobrace was amazing! Love his personality and bedside manner - the nurses and desk staff are wonderful, as well. Everyone has a smile on their face and so happy to answer any questions.

What Is Submental Liposuction?

Submental liposuction targets the pocket of fat that collects beneath the chin (the “submental” area) using gentle suction technology to contour and define the lower face. At CaloAesthetics, our surgeons use micro-cannula liposuction techniques through tiny incisions discreetly hidden beneath the chin.

Depending on your needs, the procedure is performed under local or light sedation and typically takes less than an hour. For many patients, submental liposuction is a simple yet transformative solution. It removes stubborn fat that no amount of diet or exercise can address.

The Benefits of Submental Liposuction

Refined Jawline Definition

It smooths the chin-to-neck transition to create a sharper, more sculpted profile.

Balanced Facial Proportion

It restores harmony between the chin, jawline, and neck so your features look slimmer and more defined from every angle.

Minimally Invasive Approach

It uses tiny, well-concealed incisions and micro-cannulas to achieve noticeable improvement with minimal scarring.

Quick, Low-Downtime Recovery

It allows most patients to return to routine activities within a few days, allowing them to return to life quickly.

Long-Lasting Contour

It permanently removes targeted fat cells, helping your refined neckline last for years with a stable weight.

Seamless Procedure Pairing

It can be combined with neck tightening or a lift to enhance definition further and address skin laxity when needed.

When to Consider Submental Liposuction

Submental liposuction may be right if you struggle with a “double chin,” fullness beneath the jaw, or a lack of definition between your neck and face. It’s ideal for patients with good skin elasticity and mild to moderate fat accumulation who want a more defined contour without extensive surgery.

During your consultation, Dr. Calobrace or Dr. Quintero will assess your anatomy and goals to determine whether submental liposuction, or a combined approach with neck tightening or lift, is the best way to achieve your desired look.

What to Expect: The Submental Liposuction Process

    Personal Consultation

    You’ll meet with your surgeon to discuss your goals and determine if submental liposuction is right.

    Procedure Day

    The area beneath the chin is numbed or gently sedated, and a small incision is made for the liposuction cannula.

    Precision Contouring

    Excess fat is carefully removed to refine and define your jawline, with meticulous control for natural-looking results.

    Quick Recovery

    A light compression garment may be worn for several days to support healing. Most patients return to daily routines within 2–3 days.

    Refined Results

    Swelling subsides over several weeks, revealing a smoother, slimmer, youthful neckline.

    Background media

    Your Submental Liposuction Results

    You’ll notice improvement almost immediately, with your new jawline continuing to refine as swelling resolves. 

    The results are subtle yet striking, a smoother, more defined profile that enhances your natural structure without looking “done.” Because fat cells are permanently removed, your results can last for years with stable weight and healthy lifestyle habits.

    Trusted by Thousands Tailored to You

    Refined Techniques

    Our surgeons use advanced, small-cannula liposuction methods for smoother results, minimal bruising, and faster healing.

    Schedule your consultation at CaloAesthetics Plastic Surgery Center and take the first step toward your most refined reflection.

    Submental Liposuction FAQ

    Will submental liposuction tighten my skin?

    Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t directly tighten skin. However, patients with good skin elasticity typically see natural retraction. Additional tightening can be combined with a neck lift or RF skin tightening.

    Is the procedure painful?

    Most patients describe it as surprisingly comfortable. Local anesthesia or light sedation relaxes you, and recovery discomfort is mild and easily managed.

    How long does swelling last?

    Most swelling resolves within 1–2 weeks, with final results visible around 4–6 weeks.

    Are the results permanent?

    Yes. Fat cells removed during liposuction do not return. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve your contour in the long term.

    Can I combine submental liposuction with other facial procedures?

    Absolutely. Many patients combine it with a neck lift, facelift, or skin tightening for a more comprehensive rejuvenation.
