Surgery with Symmetry
At Artisan of Beauty, we deliver a deliberate and elevated approach to aesthetic medicine for the Coast Village community of Santa Barbara. Under the leadership of Dr. Tim Neavin, a board-certified plastic surgeon with more than twenty years of dedicated clinical experience, our practice is grounded in precision, restraint, and respect for natural form. We are recognized for outcomes that appear effortless rather than altered, supported by careful technique and a consistent focus on proportion. Our work reflects a deep understanding that true aesthetic success lies in balance, not excess.We have intentionally chosen a personalized practice model rather than a high-volume environment. Each patient relationship begins with a comprehensive, unrushed consultation designed to understand individual goals before recommending any treatment. Dr. Neavins guiding philosophy, "Surgery with Symmetry," emphasizes harmony, durability, and long-term tissue health instead of short-lived trends. Our Santa Barbara office offers non-surgical and minimally invasive treatments such as advanced injectables, skin rejuvenation therapies, and facial refinement procedures that enhance appearance while preserving authenticity. For patients pursuing surgical care, Dr. Neavin personally performs procedures at fully accredited hospitals, including Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Olympia Medical Center, Beverly Hospital, and Queen of the Valley Hospital, maintaining the highest standards of safety and professional excellence.

Services
Our breast augmentation service is guided by our Surgery with Symmetry philosophy, emphasizing natural proportion and balance. We design each procedure to restore volume, improve harmony, and address asymmetry with precision. Surgery is performed in our private, fully accredited suite. Patients experience immediate enhancement with results that continue to soften and refine over time.
We offer rhinoplasty as a highly precise surgical procedure designed to enhance facial balance and nasal function. This surgery allows us to refine nasal shape, adjust proportions, and address structural concerns affecting breathing. Each procedure is carefully customized to the individual’s anatomy and goals. Our approach emphasizes permanent, natural-looking results that complement the entire face.
We offer liposuction to precisely remove stubborn fat and refine natural body contours. This procedure targets areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, and neck that resist diet and exercise. Using the gold-standard tumescent technique, we prioritize smooth, natural-looking results with minimal downtime. Removed fat may also be used for selective fat grafting to enhance other areas. Results are permanent with stable weight maintenance.
We approach the Mommy Makeover as a bespoke restorative process tailored to each individual. By integrating multiple complementary procedures, we address changes to the breasts, abdomen, and body contours in one surgery. This method prioritizes balanced results, natural appearance, and efficiency through a unified recovery timeline.

In June this year, I received abdomen and flank lipo from Dr. Neavin. I truly couldn’t be happier with my results! He took out 5L of fat from just my abdomen and flanks and it looks so natural, aesthetically pleasing, and symmetrical.
For reference I’m 22 years old and I am active but I just wanted the lower belly fat I had to be removed, also known as small apron belly. Everyone at the office was very helpful during pre and post op care and answered all questions I had.
Now I am 10 weeks post op and I feel like my normal self again. The scarring was also so minimal! When I got a lymphatic drainage massage (personal choice) they couldn’t even find the scars at first.
Dr. Neavin really is an artist in his craft and very knowledgeable in his field. He is also very funny and kind which helps with easing the nerves that come with preparing for an invasive procedure. :)

Dr. Neavin change my life! I first went to him in 2016 for my rhinoplasty to fix my broken nose. He did an amazing job and made my nose perfect! then again, I went to him for my BBL in 2021 and my results have just been amazing. I now am no longer flat on my butt and have actual fat and I just feel great. His staff is super attentive and his nurse Michelle it’s just great. I love her attitude and her positive energy that she gives out to me whenever I’m in the office. Anytime I need something done, I know where I’m going to go because I trust my doctor completely with me and I always feel safe under his knife.

I got lip injections and facial fat transfer from Dr. Neavin and I am very satisfied with the results. Absolutely love my lips and fuller face. People tell me I look “refreshed” but I often don’t share my secrets lol. Every time I look myself in the mirror, I can’t stop looking my lips lol.
Dr. Neavin is very talented and professional and a true artist. If you're thinking about getting your lips done or if you just want to look more rested or younger definitely visit Dr. Neavin, you will be in good hands with him! Highly recommended! I now understand why he is known as an expert in facial fat transfer. I look amazing!
