Body Plastic Surgery, Newport Beach
If you are comparing tummy tuck, liposuction, BBL, body lift, or other body procedures, start with one consultation that maps the whole plan. At your Newport Beach visit, Tim Sayed MD reviews your priorities, examines the relevant areas, and discusses single procedures, safe combinations, staging, or non-surgical alternatives.
Choose the consultation office with follow-up in mind. If you consult in Newport Beach, your follow-ups are at 3991 MacArthur Boulevard, Suite 320, Newport Beach, CA 92660. Surgery is performed only in accredited operating rooms separate from both consultation offices, not at the MacArthur Boulevard office.

Abdomen and waist
A tummy tuck tightens loose skin and muscle; liposuction removes stubborn fat and refines the waist.
Buttocks and shape
A Brazilian butt lift and high-definition liposculpture reshape and define the body contour.
After pregnancy or weight loss
A mommy makeover or body lift restores the body after children or major weight change.
Arms and skin
An arm lift (brachioplasty) and body lift remove loose, hanging skin for a firmer shape.
Intimate and non-surgical
Labiaplasty refines the intimate area; non-surgical body contouring treats smaller concerns.
One surgeon, one plan
Dr. Sayed combines procedures thoughtfully so you reshape the whole body in one recovery.
Why Dr. Sayed
Dr. Sayed is certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, and he has been recertified in both after ten years. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
He earned his medical degree at the UCSF School of Medicine, completed general surgery training at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard, and returned to UCSF for his plastic surgery fellowship.
Ask about operations similar to yours and how your health, tissue quality, and goals affect the plan.
Bring your questions about shape, candidacy, and recovery. New or urgent symptoms should not wait for elective cosmetic planning.

You do not need to choose a procedure before you arrive. Common options include:
Tummy tuck in Newport Beach — loose abdominal skin and often muscle repair
Liposuction in Newport Beach — localized fat with reasonably elastic skin
Hi-def liposculpture in Newport Beach — more athletic surface definition when skin quality allows
Brazilian butt lift in Newport Beach — fat transfer to the buttocks with subcutaneous-only placement
Body lift in Newport Beach — hanging lower-trunk skin after major weight loss
Arm lift in Newport Beach — loose upper-arm skin
Labiaplasty in Newport Beach — labia minora reduction for comfort and/or appearance
Mommy makeover planning combines selected breast and body procedures when medically appropriate. Non-surgical contouring may suit smaller goals; loose skin and separated muscle usually need surgery.
Consultation
List the areas that bother you most and any prior operations or weight-loss history. You do not need to name a procedure before the examination.
Ask which concerns are fat, skin, muscle, or volume-related; whether combination or staging is safer; and what recovery help you would need. Nicotine use, unstable weight, and medical conditions may change timing or candidacy.
The reverse is also true. Once skin and deeper tissue have truly loosened, no device replaces a tuck or a lift. Knowing where that line sits is the value of an in-person exam.
What to expect
Every operation carries anesthesia risk, bleeding, infection, fluid collections, poor healing, unfavorable scars, asymmetry, blood clots, and possible revision. Procedure-specific risks matter: fat embolism with improper BBL injection planes; wound separation after large lifts; sensation change after labiaplasty; contour irregularity after liposuction.

Combined procedures increase operative time and recovery demand. Staging may be safer. Seek urgent care for chest pain, shortness of breath, fever, or rapidly worsening symptoms.

Procedures
Surgery is deferred when weight is still changing substantially, when nicotine use continues, when expectations cannot be met safely, or when a smaller concern fits a non-surgical approach. Dr. Sayed will say so when that is the case.
• — loose abdominal skin and often muscle repair • — localized fat with reasonably elastic skin • — more athletic surface definition when skin quality allows • — fat transfer to the buttocks with subcutaneous-only placement • — hanging lower-trunk skin after major weight loss • — loose upper-arm skin • — labia minora reduction for comfort and/or appearance Mommy makeover planning combines selected breast and body procedures when medically appropriate. Non-surgical contouring may suit smaller goals; loose skin and separated muscle usually need surgery. No combination is automatic — safety and operative time limit what can be done together.

Cost
Body contouring pricing varies by procedure. As a rough practice guide: liposuction about $4,000–$9,000; tummy tuck about $8,000–$15,000; mommy makeover and body lift often higher (about $15,000–$30,000). Individual quotes replace these guides.
Request a written quote for your proposed operation or combination. Ask which planned procedures and follow-up services it covers and what could add to the cost. Cosmetic body contouring is typically not covered by insurance; confirm with your insurer if you believe a portion may qualify.

Recovery
Recovery depends entirely on which procedure(s) you have. Liposuction downtime differs from a tummy tuck or body lift. Ask for a written recovery outline for your specific plan, including garment use, sitting or lifting limits, and when you must return for examinations.
Your follow-ups are at the same Newport Beach office where you had your consultation. If you will travel, ask how long to remain nearby after surgery.
First week
Rest and gentle walking. Any drains are usually removed this week; keep the garment on as directed.
Weeks 2 to 3
Most people return to desk work and light daily activity, still wearing the garment.
Weeks 4 to 6
Light activity resumes, then full exercise once Dr. Sayed clears you.
Months 2 to 6
Swelling fully resolves and the final, shaped result settles.

Tell the team where you plan to recover and ask when you must return to Newport Beach for examinations. If returning here would be difficult, discuss office selection before your consultation rather than assuming that follow-ups can move to San Diego.

Questions
Costs vary by procedure and combination. Guide ranges appear on individual procedure pages; request a written quote for your plan. The same pricing framework applies at both consultation offices.
Recovery timing is individualized. Follow your surgeon’s instructions. Your follow-ups take place at the same Newport Beach office as your consultation.
The practice pages cover tummy tuck, liposuction, hi-def liposculpture, Brazilian butt lift, mommy makeover planning, body lift, arm lift, and labiaplasty. The consultation maps which apply to you.
Small fat pockets may suit non-surgical options. Loose skin, separated muscle, or larger shape change usually need surgery. The exam draws that line.
Often yes within safety limits. Mommy makeover and liposuction combinations are common examples. Staging may be recommended when time or recovery would be excessive.
The goal is proportionate contour for your frame, but healing and anatomy vary. Photographs do not guarantee your outcome.
Scar location depends on the procedure — low abdomen for many tummy tucks, beltline for body lifts, inner arm for brachioplasty, tiny ports for liposuction. Scars are permanent.
Health, stable weight, realistic goals, and the specific anatomic problem determine candidacy. Not every concern needs an operation.
Describe your priorities; the examination matches fat, skin, muscle, and volume issues to options. You do not need to self-diagnose before the visit.
Discomfort varies by procedure and is managed with a perioperative plan. Larger lifts generally involve more recovery than small-area liposuction.
Yes — body lift and related procedures address hanging skin after major weight loss once weight and nutrition are appropriate.
Removed tissue does not return, but aging and weight change continue. Stable habits support longevity; permanence of a specific look cannot be promised.
Selected body procedures are discussed for men when appropriate. Ask at consultation which men’s body-contouring options apply; clinical hub links remain withheld until those hubs are fixed.
Review Dr. Sayed’s qualifications on this page and ask about planning combinations safely, staging, and managing complications.
