A Guide to Contouring, Tightening, and Injectable Refreshers.
The beginning of a new year often brings a renewed focus on personal goals and shedding past barriers, including how we want to look and feel in the months ahead. January is an ideal time to start planning aesthetic treatments that support both body contouring and facial rejuvenation. For many, 2025 may have been a year of reflection, behind-the-scenes progress, and patience; as we head into 2026, this year may signal a year of action, visibility, and confidence. Many of today’s most effective non-surgical treatments allow for visible results, building on those slow, quiet changes of 2025 to bring confidence in 2026.
At Coastal Dermatology + Aesthetics, we take a personalized, integrative, and strategic approach to treatment planning. Below, we break down our body contouring, skin-tightening, and injectable options, how they work, and why taking action now sets you up for success throughout 2026.
Why January Is the Best Time to Start
Taking action in January offers several advantages. With fewer upcoming events and a fresh-start mindset, patients have more flexibility to commit to treatment plans and follow recommended timelines. Starting early allows your body time to respond naturally to treatments, whether that means body contouring, collagen stimulation, or subtle facial refinement.
Many body and skin treatments are not instant fixes. They require both the patience and wisdom of 2025 to lead to the visible results of 2026. They are designed to improve with a compounded effect, making January the perfect moment to act decisively, begin, and build toward visible changes in the warmer months.
Body Contouring Options at Coastal Dermatology + Aesthetics
FlexSure Body Contouring: FlexSure is a non-invasive treatment designed to target stubborn fat and strengthen muscle simultaneously. Using advanced energy technology, FlexSure helps sculpt areas such as the abdomen, flanks, and thighs while supporting improved muscle tone. This treatment is often performed in a series, with results becoming more noticeable as the body responds over several weeks.
SculpSure Body Contouring: SculpSure uses laser energy to target and permanently reduce fat cells in areas resistant to diet and exercise. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs. Once fat cells are destroyed, the body gradually eliminates them, with results continuing to improve over two to three months. Starting in January allows time for optimal results before summer.
Skin Tightening & Firming Treatments
TempSure Envi Skin Tightening: TempSure Envi uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture and laxity. This treatment is commonly used on the face and neck and is well-suited for patients looking to improve firmness without downtime. Results build gradually, making it ideal to begin early in the year.
TempSure Firm: TempSure Firm is designed to address skin laxity on larger areas of the body, including the abdomen, arms, and thighs. By promoting collagen remodeling, TempSure Firm helps improve the appearance of loose skin over time. Treatment plans often involve multiple sessions, with results continuing to develop for several months.
Injectable Options for Facial Rejuvenation
Injectables remain one of the most effective ways to refresh and rebalance facial features with minimal downtime.
Neuromodulators: Neuromodulators such as BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport, and Xeomin help soften expression lines on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. Results typically begin to appear within days and last several months, making January a great time to refresh or maintain a consistent treatment routine.
Dermal Fillers: Dermal fillers restore volume, enhance facial contours, and support overall facial balance. Common treatment areas include the cheeks, lips, jawline, and lower face. When placed strategically, fillers can create a natural-looking enhancement that complements both facial features and body treatments.
Pairing Treatments for Balanced Results
One of the benefits of starting treatment planning early is the ability to safely and effectively combine treatments. Body contouring and skin tightening can be paired to improve both shape and firmness, while injectables enhance facial features for a more refreshed overall appearance.
At Coastal Dermatology + Aesthetics, every treatment plan is customized. Our providers carefully assess goals, timelines, and individual anatomy to ensure treatments work together harmoniously.
