Richard Chaffoo, MD, FACS, FICS

My experience with Dr. Chaffoo and his staff (including the amazing Olivia Fulps) was nothing short of life-changing and life-affirming! As a female, I have never suffered from hair loss per-se, but I have always been self-conscious of the angular shape of my temples and the size of my forehead.

After years of research, I discovered Dr. Chaffoo as a leading specialist that specifically includes female hair restoration (a much nicher speciality to find, particularly when my need was for creating hair where there never was any.)

From beginning to end, my experience with Dr. Chaffoo and his team was nothing short of incredible. I felt deeply listened to, heard, and cared for. He is caring, personable, and skilled. With his knowledge, we devised a plan to do a FUE transplant and insert hairs along my temple to create a more feminine, oval, look.

The procedure was painless and we even had some fun on the day of - (a little dance party and stretch break with the staff). Dr. Chaffoo gifted me (with no additional charge) with more grafts than originally quoted to give me the hairline of my dreams, and I honestly could not have imagined a look more beautiful! It's natural, attractive, and refined.

I feel a newfound confidence and freedom I never thought possible, and it's all thanks to Dr. Chaffoo. Thank you so much for changing my life.

To start from the moment I walked into Dr.Chaffoo office up until now a year and five months post surgery, i have been entirely taken care of and comfortable with every step of the way with the the office staff and the doctor himself. Before my consultation with Dr.Chaffoo I have thought about rhinoplasty for my entire life. It is so satisfying to long for something and then loving the work that was done just made me so grateful that Dr.Chaffoo has many years of experience and also listens to what you want and what may be your concerns. The process after the surgery I found most important. Bed rest is important and also taping of the nose is what made my nose come out so great. Even after the recommended amount of weeks that we are suppose to tape, till this day I still wrap my nose at night because its still healing and i found that i get the shape and size i like when i keep up with taping at night. Im so happy with the results and my trust and loyalty is with Dr. Chaffoo. Thank you for changing my life and making me smile every step of the way with you.

I came to Chaffoo for a consultation in hopes to fix a rhinoplasty I had seven years ago. My nose was collapsed and crooked. I was scared and very skeptical to do this procedure again, (hence why I waited 7 years), since I did not have a good experience the first time around. However, I finally got myself to consider a consultation and figured it couldn't get worse than what it already looked like! Immediately when I had met Dr. Chaffoo I knew he was the one who could fix my nose. Triple board certified and specializing in revisions, I felt confident and knew I was in good hands. That indeed was true! Chaffoo not only fixed my nose, straightening it and lifting my collapsed tip, he also improved my breathing and kept my nose looking natural and truly AMAZING! My surgery was for sure not an easy job (botched nose), but Chaffoo fixed it all! I am so impressed with the results and cannot be happier. Chaffoo and his staff are all so great and really care about their patients. I had a great experience and highly recommend Chaffoo to everyone!

Dr.Chaffoo and the entire staff has been amazing! He really listened to what I wanted while also giving his professional input. Every visit has been a pleasure. I have already recommended friends to him!

I was referred to Dr. Chaffoo from another Plastic Surgeon for my daughter's nose. Dr Chaffoo did a wonderful job with my daughter's nose. It looks very natural and my daughter is thrilled with her new nose. It's not a ski slope or too small for her face...her profile is amazing now. After taking care of my 22 year old, it was time to ask about my 54 year old face. I had age spots that I hated and covered with my hair & make up. I asked Dr Chaffoo what he thought and why I looked tired all the time. He suggested Fraxel and also to remove the extra skin from my upper eye lids. Wow, Dr Chaffoo is very talented and very warm and caring. My age spots are gone (thanks Nancy) and my eyes look great. I feel like Dr Chaffoo asked the questions about what bothered me and consulted with me to determine what would give me the best results "for me". There was no pressure, no suggestions of additional areas to work on...and when I asked about my lower lids, Dr Chaffoo said "you don't need it, and I don't want to do it and have you feeling disappointed you didn't get the results you want". I will go back for more when I feel necessary and would send all my friends if they asked!! Thank you! the clock has been turned back by a few very difficult 3-5 years!

I came to Dr. Chaffoo to correct issues I had from liposuction a couple years ago. His office was very nice and the staff extremely friendly. When I saw Dr. Chaffoo he recommended coolsculpting instead of surgery. I was convinced that I had to have surgery again to fix the asymmetry I was experiencing from the liposuction. After a few consultations I decided to try coolsculpting. His technician Robert was very knowledgeable about the procedure and made the whole process that much easier. A couple months have passed and I'm super happy with the results.

10 out of 10! Would like to say a massive thank you to Dr Chaffoo and his brilliant team for looking after my during my breast augmentation, I’m over the moon with my results, such a professional and friendly team!. I highly recommend the private clinic of lajolla for anyone looking into cosmetic surgery. Thank you once again!

Dr. Chaffoo and his staff are friendly, personable, and professional. I had my breast augmentation surgery last November which was a surprisingly painless experience and procedure. What I appreciate most of him and his team was that I never once felt pressured on what implant size to get or pushed into any extra unnecessary procedures. They listened to what I wanted and gave me an outcome that was 10x better

I had a rhinoplasty and chin implant done by doctor Chaffoo. What can I say, the results were even better than what I expected. I am very very happy now. Doctor Chaffoo's service was impeccable and his staff was incredibly nice. I highly recommend him to anyone!!

I had FUE done by Dr Chaffoo and his amazing nurses, one of which who has been doing it for 30 years. I went in wanting 1,500 graphs but Dr Chaffo said I only needed 1,000 max. I had paid for 1,000 graphs but the day of the procedure they only ended up doing around 800 and refunded me for 200 graphs. I was really surprised by that, I would have had no idea if they had used 1,000 or 800. Very honest and super nice team, it couldn't have gone any better.
