Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Center

Serving La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe and San Diego, California

Welcome to the La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Practice of Dr. Wendell Smoot, Dr. John Smoot, and Dr. Richard Chaffoo. Located in La Jolla and serving all of San Diego since 1979, we offer an array of facial plastic surgery and body contouring treatments to cosmetic surgery patients who are seeking natural looking enhancement in a comfortable and friendly setting.

For patients seeking to refine their silhouette, liposuction and abdominoplasty are available. Our San Diego Cosmetic Surgeons are also skilled in a number of facial plastic surgery techniques, including rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), facelift, and more. In addition, we offer a full complement of breast surgeries, including breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction procedures.

Cosmetic surgery may not be the right choice for many of our San Diego area patients. For them, we provide skin care treatments and non-surgical rejuvenation options such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, Restylane®, and collagen injections.

About the Doctors

Each of our three talented surgeons is an active member in some of the United States' most prestigious professional cosmetic surgery organizations. The patients who visit our La Jolla plastic surgery office can be confident in their choice, knowing that our doctors are constantly bringing updated knowledge and the latest technology to every procedure they perform. Our very own Dr. Wendell Smoot has been voted "Top Doctor" for five years now (2004-2008). Learn more about our plastic surgeons.

Charitable Donations

Many physicians donate to  worthy causes they embrace, but the surgeons and staff at Cosmetic Plastic Surgery in La Jolla, California have taken a proactive approach to supporting charitable causes. Dr. John Smoot, Dr. Wendell M. Smooth III, and Dr. Richard A.K. Chaffoo recently announced an unprecedented commitment to donate a percentage of each procedure they perform to non-profit initiatives. The dedicated team of surgeons and staff  embrace the concept of giving back to the community and donate a percentage of their pre-profit surgical income to 501 (c) (3) organizations. In addition to granting charitable donations, the surgeons perform pro bono surgical cases on worthy recipients in San Diego and Mexico. With more than 65 years of combined experience, Drs. Smoot and Dr. Chaffoo have offered facial, breast and body cosmetic and reconstructive procedures since 1979. To learn more about this philanthropic medical team and the services they offer, please read our About our San Diego Cosmetic Surgeons page.

Innovative Techniques

In addition to traditional cosmetic surgery procedures, our San Diego plastic surgeons have also mastered techniques that use modern technology to provide stunning results to their patients. For example, the doctors offer minimal incision breast lifts, dramatically diminishing the appearance of scars after surgery. Similarly, the doctors perform short scar facelifts using state-of-the-art endoscopic tools that require only tiny incisions. This is an excellent solution for people in their forties and fifties who aren't quite ready for a traditional facelift, and like the idea of shorter incisions.
