Richard Chaffoo, MD, FACS, FICS, La Jolla CA

Dr. Chaffoo is so very nice and explained things thoroughly. The office staff are very pleasant and helpful. Definitely recommend this office!

Robert is AMAZING! I had lipo last November and while the procedure definitely removed the majority of my unpleasant back fat, it didn’t get it all. After seeing Robert for a couple of Cool Sculpting treatments post-surgery I couldn’t be more happy with my lower stomach and bra line! Cool Sculpting really works and Robert knows his stuff! I highly recommend Robert and La Jolla Plastic Surgery and Dermatology!

I recently had a lipoma removed from my arm by Dr. Chaffoo. I was concerned about the scar due to the size of the lipoma. He insured me that he would be able to make a small incision and pop it out. I was really nervous and had lived with this for a long time due to the fear of having an ugly scar. Dr. Chaffoo and his staff made be feel at ease during the procedure. It only took 15 minutes and I felt no pain. Dr. Chaffoo went the extra mile and closed my incision using subdermal sutures which made for a very clean scar that was much smaller than I expected. Dr. Chaffoo is amazing and I would recommend him to anyone. He was very knowledgeable and had an impeccable bedside manner. Thank you Dr. Chaffoo!

So happy with results after getting coolsculpting. I researched the procedure, and realized quickly that it was right for me since I wanted something non-invasive so I scheduled an appointment for a consultation. I will say had low expectations from the beginning, and was a bit nervous, but as soon as I met Robert he took all those fears away with his knowledge. Ultimately I booked an appointment to get it, and the whole process was just amazing. I laid down, and watched Netflix as my fat was frozen away! That was a month ago, and now I’m finally seeing some amazing results. I highly recommend this procedure and Robert!

I can't even begin to explain my love for Dr. Chaffoo and his amazing team! From the moment I walked in for my Rhinoplasty consultation I felt safe and comfortable with everyone I spoke to! Tracy was so kind and motherly and Dr. Chaffoo treated me as if he had known me for years! My experience at my consultation was so great, that I called the next day and booked my surgery! I was terrified of surgery, but not with this team, I felt at ease! Now, I am one month post Op, and am truly amazed by my results. I am so happy with my choice in going with Dr. Chaffoo, I would recommend him to EVERYONE! He has truly changed my life and I am forever grateful!

After a friend referred me to Dr Chaffoo, he performed a tummy tuck, tied my abs back together, a breast reduction/lift, and lipo. He did an amazing job! He made me feel comfortable from the consultation to my post op appointments I'm still coming in for. He is a true artist! He is very detailed and precise! My results are amazing. I would recommend him to anyone. His main concern is the health and well being of the patient, which I think is so important!

Dr. Chafoo is amazing! He really takes the time to understand what you want to achieve.

He helped me look more rested in giving me the perfect Botox treatment. It was just the right amount, and he even took the time and care to wear those medical magnifying glasses to inject me in my pores.

I will count on Dr. Chafoo to help me look my best for years to come!

I recently had filler with Dr Chaffoo. I felt at ease knowing that he is a triple board certified plastic surgeon. He’s know the anatomy as well as the aesthetics of the face. I left his office looking and feeling fantastic. Thank you Dr Chaffoo for making my holiday season the best ever.

Dr Chaffoo is absolutely amazing! I am 65 and finally decided to do something for myself. I am amazed and in awe of the results! Dr Chaffoo is so kind, an absolute miracle worker. The results of my procedure far exceeded my expectations. I was completely safe, follow up care was thorough and I always felt special. I am forever grateful for Dr Chaffoo and his wonderful staff. Thank you, Dr Chaffoo!

Highly Skilled Plastic Surgeon

I am so excited to say that I finally have success after 6 Breast revisions for Capsular contraction. Dr. Chaffoo is a highly skilled surgeon and he recommended using Strattice for my revision. I have had many plastic surgeons but I have never met a more skilled, detailed oriented and kind and caring surgeon. He has skilled nurses and staff that makes you feel like your family.

This is me within 48 hours of my Liposuction Surgery with Dr Chafoo. I told him if this is me swollen - well. Did you even do anything? Because I am not in that much pain. But of course he did. Look how svelte I am! I cannot say enough about Dr Chafoo; his staff; the anesthesiologist; the check in and recovery nurses. All super professional and personable! I won't go anywhere else.

Dr. Chaffoo is a great surgeon and is kind, gentle, experienced and has a great bedside manner. His staff (Nancy and Tracy) are equally as attentive and thorough. I felt safe and confident. He did a great job. I am very happy with the results. I would recommend him to anyone.

The best doctor in california, triple board certified now thats experience would advise you not to go to any one less qualified

BEST OF THE BEST! I was referred to Dr. Chafoo by my primary Doctor, due to some complications with my surgery. These complications created the most painful week of my life. Dr. Chafoo took the time to listen to my issues and figured out what was causing me so much pain. He was gracious, approachable and very likeable. His staff even contacted me the next day to see how I was doing. Finally, because he wasn't the Doctor that performed the original surgery, he did this all gratis, as a favor to the originating Doctor. While I'm giving him 5 stars, I think that this is a serious understatement to how amazing he is. Bedside manner: 5 stars. Effectiveness: 5 stars. Communication: 5 stars. Follow up: 5 stars. My appreciation for somebody who gets it: 10 stars.

If you are looking a best breast augmentation doctor, Dr Chaffoo is the one. I just have breast augmentation done by him. I am very happy with my new breasts and I can't even see the scars. Dr Chaffoo is very good. His staffs are very nice and friendly. Thank you Dr Chaffoo, you're the best.

I meet with Dr. Chaffoo last year September 2017 after having seen 4 other plastic surgeons to help with my capsular contracture. All the previous Doctors gave me little or no hope that it could be fixed and not recur. Dr. Chaffooo was the only one that was extremely optimistic and felt very confident he could fix my problem. After the first visit I felt so comfortable and confident with him that when I got home I scheduled the surgery. Happy to say that almost 3 months post op every thing is going well. Dr. Chaffoo and his team are extremely friendly and helpful.
Thank you Dr. Chaffoo for making me feel happy about my appearance again and taking excellent care of me!

I have always been able to loose weight with exercise and a healthy diet.until my early 40's hit! I had been busting my ass with workouts and improving my diet for close to a year with ZERO results! I felt defeated and hopeless. Thank goodness for Robert Gleason, La Jolla skin and CoolSculpt! Not only did the fat that was frozen melt away, but the process gave me a HUGE kick start to my over-all weight loss that I could not achieve on my own doing everything that I had always done when I was younger.

Robert was very direct and honest about the results I could expect and was careful not to set my expectations too high. I am extremely grateful to say that the results FAR Exceeded my expectations and I recommend this procedure to anyone who is getting frustrated by putting the hard work in without results. This was one of the best decisions of my life!

I went to La Jolla Plastic Surgery for Coolsculpting. It was a new experience for me but Robert walked me through it and made sure I was comfortable through it all. Thanks!

Dr. Chaffoo and his staff were both delightful to work with and encouraging in every way. His work was better than I anticipated and needless to say I am very very happy with the results, His bedside manner was assuring and comforting; as was that of his staff. I personally would recommend him to anyone who is interested in good and satisfying results. I'd never been sedated, so my apprehension was relatively high. NO WORRYS! I'd do it all again.with Dr. Chaffoo of course.
