I am 2 weeks post op from a tummy tuck, lipo, breast lift w/implants, and BBL. I I can already see improvement in my shape, and I am already falling in love with my body! Dr. Gutticonda and the staff at Pacific Lipo were very thorough, caring, and professional. I am very pleased with my results so far, and I know it's only going to get better! Thank you Pacific Lipo!

Great Experience, Great Bedside Manner

Amazing results after surgery. I'm so grateful to have gone with Dr. G. His team was also amazing. Will be doing 2 more procedures with this team. I did tummy tuck, lipo and bbl fat transfer to hips and butt.

Amazing !!!! Would Do It Again

Dr. Guttikonda made sure I had realistic expectations from the start. He knew exactly what I wanted and helped me be comfortable during my first surgery. Fat transfer from back bra roll + flanks and hips to buttocks.

Was a good experience

It was a awsome experience. This doctor was great . His bedside manor was very good . He listen to all my care and concerns . I was awake the whole procedure o felt some discomfort but it was taken care right away and got me comfortable. The results was amazing . I can’t say he didn’t do a good job . He did a marviolus job. My self esteem is back my waistline and that fat belly after 4 c sections are gone forever.

Do Not Come Here

I got surgery on March 21, 2025 with Dr Guttikonda. I l paid $12,850 for a Tummy tuck and fat transfer. Everything went well until 7 weeks later when I noticed swelling on my right side tummy tuck incision that wasn't going down and an uneven fat transfer. I scheduled an appointment to have a follow up as in my paperwork It says that a minor revision can be done within 12 months of surgery and it would be $1500. At my appointment he speaks nothing about a revision and instead they give me a quote for $9000 to have these issues fixed. I stated to them that I will contact a lawyer because this is unacceptable after they stated that they couldn't further assist me. They explained how a fat transfer is unpredictable. Therefore it cannot be a revision and I said fine. What about the swelling on my tummy tuck incision and this is when the manager Stephanie told me she will call me back on Monday. This was on Friday. She never called me back so two weeks later I contact them and that's when she calls me back and tells me that she cannot helpme further because I told them that I was going to contact a lawyer. Therefore this doctor is going against what his paperwork promised that I signed stating that minor revisions can be done within 12 months. He also was going to charge me $1500 for this revision. My complaint is on the empathy and treatment that this company is giving somebody who paid them lots of money and who also referred somebody elsewho paid them about $10,000. The manager, Stephanie and the medical assistant am both took my situation personal. I can hear it in their tone. Amber didn't even wanna talk to me anymore. She stated that with my tone, she doesn't feel comfortable calling me so she was texting me that they couldn't help me after I just paid them all this money. My complaint is with both the surgeon and admin because he should have fixed these free doggy ears at my follow up appointment. Not sure why I have to do this

5 days post op - Excited to see my results more as the swelling fade

I went to pacific lipo with Dr. Rakhesh Guttikonda and am already sooo happy with my results! I would totally recommend him to anyone. Excited to see my results more as the swelling fades. I used pain pills the first night but after that I didn't need them at all.
