Revolutionary Cost-Effective Lipo

State of the art liposculpture practice in San Diego, California, Pacific Lipo, is offering revolutionary cost-effective lipo.


"People want to feel better about themselves," says Rod Davis, Physician Assistant.  "Life is tough enough for most people so any boost in self-esteem or confidence could translate into a new promotion at work, having the courage to go out on a date, or getting over a divorce.  We hear many different reasons for people wanting to make a change in their body shape.  Fortunately, there are much safer and effective ways of offering this change compared to more traditional methods, with very pleasing results.

"Demand for liposculpture services, including Smartlipo ™, ultrasound-assisted, and other methods, has pushed technology forward in innovative ways. There has never been a better time to consider liposuction. All of these methods can gently sculpt areas of fat with minimal recovery time. Liposculpture is used to eliminate diet-resistant fat almost anywhere on the body, including the stomach, hips, thighs, upper arms, and chin. Using small incisions, liposuctionists at Pacific Lipo insert tiny straw-like instruments into the deep fat layer, where it is gently removed.

"Until several years ago, people had been skeptical about liposuction, " adds Rod Davis, Physician Assistant. "But when they viewed our before and after photos, everyone was able to see for themselves the dramatic difference liposculpture can make. Of course, liposculpture is not a substitute for physical fitness and exercise, but it can significantly improve unsightly problem areas in just a couple of hours."

Specializing specifically in minimally invasive liposculpture procedures, Pacific Lipo is the premier practice for San Diegans' liposuction needs. No longer a taboo or dangerous surgery, liposculpture procedures are routine and performed to remove unwanted fat with minimal discomfort and little to now downtime. Patients do not have to undergo the dangers of general anesthesia, there are no stitches required and you can go back to work the next FDA approved and safer than standard liposuction, Pacific Lipo provides instant results and fat cells are removed permanently.

Pacific Lipo uses the most technologically advanced medical techniques and skilled professionals, having performed over 15,000 procedures -- liposculpture is all they do and thus makes them the most experienced and best at what they do. Prices are affordable starting at just $695 per area for 4 or more connected areas and consultations are free.

San Diego Gynecomastia - Male Breast Reduction

San Diego's leading lipo office specializes in male breast reduction treatment. Especially since we live near the beautiful beaches, men want to look their fittest and their best.  But a male hormonal condition called Gynecomastia can lead to the accumulation of fat behind the nipples that gives the enlarged appearance of breasts.  Now there's help for active men who despite regular diet and exercise, cannot rid themselves of this stubborn and embarrassing, rarely-talked-about condition. 

Male chest liposuction is one the most popular cosmetic procedures for men. Pacific Liposculpture's state-of-the-art liposuction procedure enables men to now get the chiseled chest and pecks they have always desired.  Pacific Lipo uses the liposculpture technique to safely and permanently remove these fat cells, reducing the size of the breast and improving the shape.

Occasionally, for more severe cases, liposculpture is combined with excision of the breast gland for the treatment of Gynecomastia; however, most of our clients are extremely happy with their outcome without having the more invasive excision procedure of the breast gland.

The male chest liposuction procedure takes about 60-90 minutes to complete. With this advanced technique, patients are able to remain awake during the procedure and drive themselves home afterwards.  Little to no downtime is required and most patients return to work just a few days after procedure. 

For more information about the liposculpture procedure for the male chest, schedule a consultation with liposculpture specialist Rod Davis, PA-C, at Pacific Lipo.  Consultations are free and allow for your to learn more about the liposculpture procedure and if it is right for you.

Laser Lipo - Is It Right For You?

Choosing the right technique that is best for you

In our increasingly beauty obsessed society, more and more of us seek out cosmetic procedure to improve our flaws.  Of these cosmetic procedures, one of the most popular is Laser Liposuction (also known as Laser Lipo, Smart Lipo, Lunchtime Lipo, or Vaser Laser).  

Laser liposuction involves the use of a laser to "melt away" fatty deposits and then tightens the surrounding skin.  This technique was first discovered in Europe and has recently become FDA approved for use in the U.S.  Laser liposuction has been used over the past 10 years in South America, Europe, and Asia.  The procedure is usually done in an office setting and does not require the use of general anesthetic.  A very small cannula, or tube, approximately 1.0 to 2.0 mm in diameter containing a laser fiber is inserted into the skin.  The cannula is moved back and forth delivering the laser's energy to the fat cells causing them to rupture and easily drain away.  The fluid released from the fat cells is removed by the body's natural waste system.  The laser also causes small blood vessels to coagulate immediately on contact, thus resulting in less bleeding and bruising.  

Some liposuctionists report that one of the advantages of laser liposuction is the fact that the probability of scarring, muscle damage, or pain tends to be smaller than more traditional liposuction methods.  As a result, the patient is usually able to return to work within 48 hours.  One of the disadvantages of laser liposuction is that it may only be useful on a limited variety of body areas.  These body parts include the neck, face, and arms.  Some patients do not report a dramatic enough difference in their shapes or skin tightening following their procedure.  Laser liposuction is used in other areas such as the abdomen, thighs, back areas, or love handles.  This may be due to today's lasers not being quite aggressive enough in creating a significant change in the thickness of the fat deposits for most body types.  There is also some doubt among liposuction specialists as to exactly how effective laser lipo is when it comes to skin tightening.  That being said, laser liposuction can be an effective procedure for a small portion of liposuction candidates. 

Pricing of this procedure varies a great deal depending on how much fat you want remove, which body parts are being treated, or which office you seek treatment in.  Patients who are interested in this procedure should seek treatment in a facility that specializes in liposculpture.  It is much more that their results will be better compared to other less experienced offices and the pricing is often times much more affordable.  When selecting a liposuction procedure for pricing, contact a liposuction specialist to find out what this procedure can do for their particular area. 

For more information on Liposuction in San Diego, California please contact Pacific Lipo at (858) 427-8899.  Consultations are complimentary, pressure-free with no obligation.  They are available to help you confidently make a decision and prepare for your lipo procedure.

Pacific Lipo Patient Talks About Her Experience on Yelp

I just had my procedure yesterday on my arms, but I'm already so happy with the whole experience, and even the early results, even though I'm just one day out. I noticed results immediately, and even with swelling, they look so much smaller than they were. I've always felt like my arms didn't match my body, especially after three kids. Even when I was around 15 years old and weighed like 112 (I'm 5'6" 1/2), they always just seemed bigger. 
I'm a huge researcher. I spent countless hours on Google, Realself, and Yelp pouring over pics and reviews, and Rod Davis just seemed like an obvious choice. The pictures of his work, as well as the testimonials from his patients, sold me. The best part is, when I got there and met him, everything they had written about him and his staff was true. 
The procedure was painless. The numbing part was definitely the hardest part of the whole procedure, but even it wasn't that bad. Totally bearable. And, I drove myself right back to Orange County as soon as it was over. I'm a stay at home mom, but if I did work, I would have had no problem returning to work today, and I guarantee that no one would have noticed anything.
Rod called to check up on me when I got home yesterday, and again today, to give me things to look for, ask if I had any questions, etc. He's amazing. He really cares about his patients, and takes great pride in his work. 
I liked the whole experience so much, that I'm going back for more work on my abdominal area soon.
I'll update this review as I finish healing.
Thank you Pacific Lipo. I wish I had found you sooner!

Bridal Body by Rod

Here comes the bride...
  big, fat, and wide?

Not if Pacific Lipo
 has anything to do with it!


As the big day approaches, 
brides dedicate the little free time they have to getting the perfect look. From practicing the perfect up-do, down to the french tips on the toes - brides want to make sure that every detail about them is flawless. 

One of the most frustrating parts of the wedding transformation can be getting that "perfect body". Even on a strict diet and exercise routine, it can seem near impossible to tone your problem areas or go down a size.  Pacific Lipo has a solution... 
Liposculpture
Liposculpture (Lipo) is a minimally invasive technique to permanently remove fat cells from problem areas. This advanced lipo technique is able to provide immediate results with little to no downtime, which is ideal for any bride who has a list of things to do and plan each day.


"After the first day I took my wrappings off to take a shower I was shocked because I have never seen my stomach look that small.  The results were immediate, even through the swelling I looked amazing! 

When I had gone to try on dresses for my wedding, I felt amazing and all my friends saw how I looked and now THEY want to get lipo. My coworker is actually going there next week to have hers done, too."

-Lindsey S. from Portland, OR



The liposculpture procedures contour the bodies, providing smoother curves and better definition - just the right look for a wedding gown or a honeymoon bikini.

Liposculpture is performed on various parts of the body -including the abdomen, love handles, flanks, back, arms, thighs, chin.  View Pacific Lipo's photo gallery to view before & after photos of patients.



"I am a bride to be and this is the best money I could spend to get 
ready for my wedding. I can't wait to take my new body dress shopping!

Thanks again to Rod Davis and the staff 
at Pacific Liposculpture for being so amazing."

-Katie H. from San Diego, CA

What is the Recovery Period Like After A Lipo Procedure?

One of the most frequently asked questions is "What is the recovery period like?" So we decided to write a blog that can help you learn more about the process.


During your recovery from a liposculpture procedure, you will be wearing a compression garment around the areas treated.  The garment decreases swelling, helps mold the new shape, and provides support and comfort. Garments must be worn following the procedure for comfort and to improve results. Duration of garment wear varies on an individual basis and will be determined by Rod Davis, PA-C, Pacific Lipo's Director of Surgery. Follow up visits with Rod Davis are an important part during the recovery process and always free of charge. 

Most of the bruising and swelling should subside within three weeks. To speed the healing process and to reduce the likelihood of post-operative complications, our staff will advise you to begin light activity as soon as possible.  You should be able to return to work within one or two days if your work is fairly sedentary. You should avoid strenuous activity for one to two weeks as your body heals, but within six weeks you should be able to resume all normal activities. It's important to continue wearing the compression garment, which should be easily hidden under your clothing, unless instructed to do otherwise by our staff.

"There were no surprises and Rod put me at ease with his outstanding bedside manner. It has been almost a month since my procedure and the office staff and Rod have been outstanding with guiding me through the healing process. They are very supportive and are there for me whenever I call with a question."  - Jay S. from San Diego, CA

San Diego, California - Military Liposculpture

Pacific Lipo, San Diego's leading liposuction office located in La Jolla, CA was recently featured on ABC's Channel 10 News for their specialty in helping members of the military pass their body fat tape measurements.

Local news presented military personnel using liposuction as a means of making tape.  Pacific Lipo has built a good reputation and experience to help our men and women in the service of our country. Rod Davis, PA-C and Director of Surgery at Pacific Lipo, preps a Marine for the liposculpture procedure. 


It is common for members of the military to turn to liposculpture. This safe and effective procedure can trim body fat quickly to help you meet measurements and perform better.

The liposculpture procedure is minimally invasive and requires little to no downtime. Results can be seen immediately and are permanent. The incisions made are so small that they are barely noticeable once healed. Besides your results, people won't be able to tell you had any work done.

A Faster, Permanent Way To Slim and Tone Your Midsection with Lipo

Are you tired of exercising and dieting without seeing any changes to your shape?  Nearly every infomercial or magazine leads us to believe that we are only 90 days from the perfect body as long as we do a million perfect sit-ups and eat minuscule portions of broiled flavorless chicken breasts.

Your personal trainer would most likely prefer to see you sweating it out over the next 3 years, but that is not necessary for most people. Abdominal Liposculpture/Liposuction is a procedure that can be performed safely under local anesthesia while providing results that can be much more dramatic than exercise or dieting. At Pacific Liposculpture, we specialize in awake liposculpture procedures using micro-incisions through the skin. These procedures provide great patient safety, minimal downtime, and dramatic results.

"...Beyond 100% Pleased ..."

 Pacific Lipo and the entire staff is top notch, the best it can possibly get.  From their stellar work to their amazing customer service, I would never go anywhere else besides Pacific Lipo for all my procedures and would recommend them to anyone interested in having liposculpture.  I first sought out this procedure at another office in the San Diego area.  The doctor there spent little time with me and was not very thorough in explaining the procedure.  I was almost entirely discouraged away from having the procedure performed, until I heard about and read the amazing reviews on Pacific Lipo.  And let me tell you, they exceed all expectations! I first came into contact with Stefani and Jasmine over the phone for scheduling my initial consultation.  They are both so kind, caring, and accommodating.  They worked with me on setting up the consult that best works with my time frame and considering that I am not local.  They were very prompt and consistent with follow-up reminders.  When I arrived at PL, they greeted me like family, asked me if I needed anything (water/snacks), seemed genuinely interested in asking me how my day was going, and gave me information they could as I waited for my consult with Rod, the Director of Surgery.  When I went in for my consult, I was very nervous to bare my bottom to a male I had never met before (I was interested in the inner thigh area). Rod's professionalism is outstanding! He made me feel very comfortable, thoroughly informed me of the procedure, took the time to answer all my questions, and provided me with his input on the area I was looking into having work done.  I made an appointment a few months down the line from the initial consult (early October).  Stefani and Jasmine were great in following up via phone an email with reminders and pre-operative care. They even helped with walking me through the financing options (I enrolled for the Discover It card to have the procedure performed). The day of the procedure, I was soooooo nervous! I could hardly take it! But Leti, the nurse on staff, came in with me in the beginning and asked me if I wanted to hold her hand - I was taken aback by her kindness! I was so scared at first, but she held my hand and spoke to me, and I swear I could have broken her hand by how hard I was squeezing! - but she was entirely focused on me and my experience in comforting me. She is truly an angel. After Rod did the prepping and the anesthesia, I was shocked by how simple the procedure was. Rod is beyond amazing at what he does. During the ENTIRE procedure, he engaged me in conversation. It completely took my mind off of what was going on, and even was enjoyable at times as we shared stories about recent travels and such. His demeanor overall is not only highly professional, but also warm and inviting, it makes the experience a great one. It has been one month since my procedure, and I can't tell you how amazing my results are! My thighs look slim and slender as if I was taken back 10 years to my dancing days! I am beyond 100% pleased with the service and outcome, I highly recommend this establishment to anyone considering liposculpture, and I am definitely a life-long patient. Thank you Stefani, Jasmine, Leti, and Rod for your outstanding work and kindness.

Variation of Liposuction Results

There are a few reasons why someone may end up with less than perfect results from a perfectly performed liposuction procedure.  One reason can be due to skin laxity.  He or she may have looser skin or pre-existing stretch marks.  It is a sign that the desired amount of post liposuction skin tightening may not be possible. In addition, some people may have had prior surgeries with large amounts of scarring.  This could significantly limit the potential for smoothness after a lipo procedure. It is also vital for patients to follow all post-op instructions. Some patients may not have followed up regularly with office visits or phone call as instructed. Following a liposculpture procedure, we encourage an active, healthy lifestyle.  Some patients do not continue to exercise and diet afterwards to ensure optimal results. As with any type of procedure, there is a variation of results.
To get a better idea of how results vary for patients with different body types, prior surgical scars, varying degrees of laxity, and more, visit Pacific Lipo's Before & After Photo Gallery.
Although results may vary, one can still appreciate the significant improvement that may be achieved when the procedure is performed by an experience liposuction specialist.  That being said, patients must keep in mind that not everyone will be completely thrilled with their results, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the technique used by the liposuctionist was poor.  Sometimes our body don't heal as nicely as we would all hope.  The goal of any lipo procedure is to help every patient look much better but unfortunately not every patient will feel better despite all reasonable efforts.

Pacific Lipo Patient Testimonial


A patient from Pacific Liposculpture in San Diego, California shares her experience.  She had upper and lower abdominal liposuction procedure done. Sherri was glowing immediately after her procedure, and still is one week after her procedure.  After battling the belly bulge for years, she came to Rod Davis, PA-C, to permanently remove some of her belly fat.  It is just one week after her procedure and she is about 5% healed, which means her results are still developing and will continue to improve.  She is ecstatic about her results and shares her story.

You can also read a step by step review of Sherri's Experience on RealSelf.

What is Liposculpture?

PACIFIC LIPO | BODY CONTOURING | SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA


Liposculpture is also known as Body Sculpting, Body Contouring, Lipo, Lipotherme, and Liposuction.  Liposculpturing involves a more artistic approach to liposuction.  This new liposuction technique gently and safely removes fat while minimizing the risk of skin irregularities and other more serious complications compared to the more conventional liposuction methods.

Liposculpture is much less invasive than traditional liposuction and the results are just as permanent.  Microsurgery techniques reshape problem areas of the body without significant trauma to the patient.  As a result, there is minimal bruising and the tiny 1-2 mm scars are almost nonexistent after healing for most patients.

New liposuction techniques utilize one or more of a broad array of technologies including laser, ultrasound, power-assisted micro-cannulas, or a combination of these techniques.  Whether it's your thighs, love handles, abdomen, arms, legs, or chin/neck that need reduction, liposculpture may be the permanent solution that you have been seeking.
Each area of the body can be tailored using the new liposuction techniques performed by our expert staff.  Liposculpture is all we do!  Have you been eager to take inches off your mid-section?  How about having thinner looking thighs or a better shaped bottom?  Our specialized techniques can significantly alter the appearance of your body with minimal discomfort.

Our staff has performed more than 15,000 procedures and we are here and ready to put our experience and expertise to work today to make your life better.

After Your Liposuction Procedure


Following your procedure, we will explain your healing process and how to achieve max results.  We will also provide you with all your medications and first garment at no additional charge.  Since liposculpture is minimally invasive and performed under a local anesthetic, you will be able to return to your normal routine.  You do not want to do any heavy lifting or working out for 4-6 weeks after your procedure.  Expect to have drainage from your incisions for a few days.  No stitches are necessary.  We recommend you have a driver so that you can kick your feet up and relax!

Follow up appointments are free and highly encouraged.  Our team at Pacific Lipo would like to see you during your recovery process and make sure you are getting the best results possible.  Patients usually return 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after their procedure.  If you are coming from out of town, that is not a problem!  Most follow up appointments can be done virtually through email with photos and phone calls.

Any questions or concerns you may have during your recovery can be addressed by a Medical Assistant, Patient Coordinator, or our Director of Surgery.  Don’t hesitate to call, our team would love to hear from you and we are happy to answer any questions you may have!
