Each year as summer approaches, many Newport Beach patients turn to Dr. Kosins seeking a more confident, sculpted physique — without the physical toll of extreme dieting. Today’s body contouring procedures offer precise, targeted results that complement a healthy lifestyle, not replace it.
What Is Body Contouring?
Body contouring encompasses a range of surgical and non-surgical procedures designed to reshape and refine the body’s natural silhouette. Rather than treating weight loss, these procedures target specific areas of stubborn fat or loose skin that resist diet and exercise — common concerns following pregnancy, significant weight changes, or natural aging.
At Dr. Kosins’ Newport Beach practice, body contouring is approached with an artistic eye and surgical precision, ensuring results feel authentically yours — never overdone.
“My goal is always a result that looks completely natural — as if you were simply born with that shape.”
Popular Procedures for Summer Readiness
Dr. Kosins offers a curated range of body procedures tailored to summer preparation timelines and individual goals:
- Liposuction & VASER High-Def Lipo — Precisely removes stubborn fat deposits from the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms.
- Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) — Tightens the abdominal wall and removes excess skin for a flat, firm midsection.
- Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) — Transfers fat to sculpt and lift the buttocks naturally.
- Mommy Makeover — A personalized combination of procedures to restore your pre-pregnancy figure.
- Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) — Eliminates loose, sagging skin on the upper arms.
Clinical Insight
Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from treated areas. Once removed, they do not return — making long-term maintenance significantly easier when paired with a stable, healthy lifestyle. Results are optimized in patients within 30% of their ideal body weight.
Timing Your Procedure Before Summer
One of the most frequently asked questions is: “When should I schedule my procedure to be ready by summer?” The answer depends on the procedure — but planning ahead is always recommended.

What to Expect at Your Consultation
Dr. Kosins dedicates meaningful time to each consultation — listening carefully to your goals, reviewing your health history, and developing a personalized treatment plan that reflects your lifestyle and aesthetic vision. No two patients are the same, and no two treatment plans should be either.
Patient Education Note
Body contouring is not a weight loss solution. Ideal candidates are at or near their target weight, in good general health, and have realistic expectations about outcomes. During your consultation, Dr. Kosins will guide you through the most appropriate options based on your unique anatomy and goals.
