    1.5 years post op. Still lifted
    LaMesha S.

    I got a breast lift and implants done with Dr. Brown in March 2021. Before surgery, he answered all of my questions and didn't let me go too big, which turned out to be the best choice. He is not one of those flashy Instagram doctors, but he is a true professional and is serious about his work and keeping his patients safe. The whole process from start to finish was perfect, I had no complications and I got the boobs I always wanted. I even woke up from surgery in a good mood. Every single day I wake up happy and so thankful for him and his staff. I trust him with my life.

    I looked better before

    I had inner thigh, inner knee and frank liposuctions and fat grafting to my breasts. I was told 70% of the fat will remain and I will be able to have full cup. He was so confident about it but my breast were all gone after six months and result of my inner thigh lipo was uneven with big dents as you see on the picture. I was very disappointed wasting $$$ money and I looked better before the surgery. My new Doctor, Dr. Handler fixed my ugly thigh plus knee, ankle and calf lipo plus fat grafting with half of the money I spent on Dr. Brown. I wish I have never had procedure with him.

    before and after Pelleve pic

    I had an allergic reaction to getting my eyelashes done and have had a permanent bag under my left eye from the skin and muscle stretching. I went to Dr. Brown to beg for his help and I was seeking surgery and willing to pay for any needed procedure. He introduced me to first try pelleve and persuaded me to consider surgery as a last option vs first option. I am so lucky to have his guidance and am now completely healed without any surgery needed. I consider Dr Brown a trustworthy and talented Dr who recommends what is best for the patient. If you are looking for an honest doctor, who's also kind and caring and handsome search no more!

    How much can i expect to pay for either silicone implants or fat transfer?

    Do not go, do not believe this will be a painless surgery. They take your money and do not disclose…read morethe hip to hip, jagged, ugly scar. Go to a plastic surgeon with good reviews or recommended by a friend. My experience was the worst. During the lipo on abs and back you are wide awake and the pain was excruciating. It felt like a hot poker. Afterwards they cover the huge 18" scar with Kotex pads and send you home. My scar became infected and I had many painful treatments afterwards. The lipo on upper back was a huge mistake. They take the fat out and leave you with two saggy folds of skin up top. Obviously if they had been honest about the huge, jagged, scar, the saggy back skin, the torturous pain during the procedure I would never have signed up. It took two months to recover from this, the first month dealt with painful, scary infection. I would give them a - score if Yelp allowed it.

    If I could give this a negative review I would…read more I had surgery in February 2017 or 2018....to be honest I don't remember the year. Thought, from the commercial it would be an easy process with little downtime....long story short they convinced me to do a mommy makeover. The day of surgery I stayed in a hotel over night near there as I had follow up the next day. My bed looked like a crime scene I bled out so much. Within a week, I had an infection so bad the doctor told me to put a Kotex with bleach in the incision, which was the worst pain ever. He then had me start going to his Culver Ciry office, since it was closer to me and it was dirty and gross. Thankfully it was just for follow up. In 2023, I noticed leaking from my belly button on occasion but so minimal I didn't think too much about it. It would happen in rare occasions. Now fast forward to 2025, my belly button started really leaking and it smelled horrible. Went to my doctors, had to go through ultrasounds, ct scans, blood work....nothing. My belly would swell on occasion as big as someone who was 7 mi the pregnant. Finally they had me just walk in while leaking and swabbed it. It was an infection. They recommended seeing a plastic surgeon since they deduced it may have been from my plastic surgery. I called Sono Bello in San Diego thinking they would be able to at least see me. They had no record of my surgery and wouldn't help me at all. I finally went to a plastic surgeon I was familiar with in Claremont. Here we are in 2026 and I just had surgery yesterday to remove infected sutures in my belly button. The infection had gotten so bad the hole in my belly button was the size of an eraser head. Sono Bello was nice as could be when taking my money but the fact they had no record of my surgery or refused to even try to help was appalling. Do NOT fall for the scam, you get what you pay for and investing in your body and health is worth more.

The front desk girls always welcomed me with a smile, the nurses were incredibly compassionate and reassuring, and the anesthesiologist (shout-out to Chris!) made me feel completely at ease. They were genuinely invested in making my experience a positive one and their warmth made all the difference. Choosing to have surgery is such a personal and vulnerable experience, and I'm so thankful I trusted PacificLipo and Dr. G. I not only got beautiful results and confidence but also an experience I'll always be grateful for. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful experience feel so positive and life-changing.

From the start, before…read morethe consultation even began, I was asked to take photos for a simulation without being properly asked or informed, which I declined. During the consultation, I clearly explained what I was looking for. He mentioned under-the-armpit incisions, which interested me, but then quickly insisted that I would need a lift. I explained that I was extremely uncomfortable with a lift due to scarring, but my concerns were dismissed. He spoke very fast, was insistent, and both my support person and I felt lost and talked over. He told me my nipples were "turned down," which I disagreed with, and made unsolicited comments such as women not wanting to "look like a boy," that "guys don't care about scars," and that "you either have scars or you don't have bigger boobs." These comments felt inappropriate and made me feel pressured and insecure rather than supported. Overall, I felt that he did not listen to my goals or respect my boundaries. I booked this consultation specifically because of his advertised experience with endoscopic transaxillary cases and made my preferences very clear, yet I felt pushed toward a procedure I did not want. I would not trust this doctor and would recommend finding a surgeon who truly listens and has experience in the specific approach you're looking for. Additionally after the consultation, I called the office again to clarify whether it would be possible to proceed with an under-the-armpit approach without a lift, since I am comfortable with my breast shape and simply want more volume. He responded that I would "have the same breasts, just bigger," and that I would still have "the same problem." I explained that I do not see my breasts as a problem and that I like them as they are. He then told me that I should find a different doctor.

When I've been to other places are just like OK here's your injection this is the standard amount, See you in x amount of months for the same amount. That's not how this place is, Kathy told me that the goal is to keep my symptoms at bay and not go through up and downs, where I'm having symptoms and I get treatment, it goes away and it comes backs. I now have a clear goal and plan where she will assess how I'm going after each treatment and see how to adjust for the next. after just a few days I already see positive changes. On another note when coming here it is in the medical center so come 15 minutes before your appointment to give you time to park and find the place since it is an area with a lot of medical offices. Also, you do have to pay to park but they did validate my parking.
