San Diego Plastic Surgery - First Visit

Your First VisitHere in Southern California, there are certainly no shortages of plastic surgeons. You deserve to find a La Jolla or San Diego plastic surgery practice where you can place trust in the surgeons and staff members. Unfortunately, not all plastic surgeons are the same - many lack Dr. Richard Chaffoo's experience and don't provide a full menu of body contouring and facial sculpting options. Worse yet, they may lack credentials, because the fact is not all those offering cosmetic surgery are actually board-certified plastic surgeons! This page explains a little more about what you can expect when you visit with Dr. Chaffoo.

To schedule an appointment with Richard Chaffoo, MD, FACS, FICS, request a Complimentary Consultation online.

  • The Initial Consultation:
    This isn't your typical "doctor's appointment," and San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Chaffoo is not your typical doctor. Why? Because there's no such thing as a typical patient. You're an individual, so you will be treated like one; you will be given all of the time you need to honestly express your unique goals and expectations, and in turn, Dr. Chaffoo will provide you with expert, honest advice based on his years of experience of exceeding the expectations of San Diegans before you who also sought plastic surgery.

  • Meet Our Patient Coordinator:
    If you're new to plastic surgery, you'll want someone to walk you through the entire process. You'll want someone who's experienced and easy to talk to. You'll want someone who can answer your questions and provide you with the information you need. And, you'll want someone who's been in your shoes - you'll want a Patient Coordinator, and you'll be glad to know that Dr. Chaffoo actually has four, two in each of his plastic surgery centers. And here's something else you'll want to know - while all four work with Dr. Chaffoo, they really work for you.

  • Preparing For Surgery:
    Before you commit to making a positive change in how you look, you might need to make a positive change in how you live. Don't worry, although the effects of plastic surgery can be long lasting, preparing for surgery is temporary.

  • Post Operative Care:
    You desire results; you shouldn't have to hope for a safe outcome. For Dr. Chaffoo, nothing is more important than your care and safety - before, during and following your La Jolla cosmetic surgery procedure. Learn more about the procedures and personnel in place not only to far exceed your expectations, but to also ensure a safe, successful outcome and a full, speedy recovery.
