What Our Clients Say
"Truth be told, I was a little anxious about this journey. However, prior to the procedure, Josh talked to me on the phone about the technology he uses. He answered all my questions and made me very comfortable and put me totally at ease. Once I met with him in his office, he reiterated what I could expect. I felt totally at ease after that.
The entire experience, from the moment I walked into my first appointment, was fantastic. Josh was friendly and efficient, was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all my questions and concerns. After the 2nd treatment, I saw subtle improvements and I am pleased to say that I am very happy with the results of my procedure. Josh is very well trained, and I would highly recommend bodysculptingsantabarbara to any person wanting a caring and attentive treatment experience."Leslie Wuest

Benefits of Facial Treatments in Body Sculpting Santa Barbara
Here’s how arm sculpting can benefit you, as well as thousands of our other clients:
Fat Reduction
No matter how many push-ups or triceps dips you do, some areas of the arms hold onto excess fat. Arm sculpting treatments target and permanently eliminate those fat cells.
Skin Tightening
Loose or sagging skin can make arms appear less toned, even if you have strong muscles underneath. Many arm sculpting treatments work by stimulating collagen and elastin production, the key proteins responsible for keeping skin firm and youthful.
Muscle Definition
Beyond fat reduction, some treatments focus on muscle stimulation. For those who work out regularly but struggle to achieve visible muscle definition, arm sculpting can provide that extra level of enhancement.
Minimally Invasive Options
Unlike traditional procedures such as arm liposuction or brachioplasty (arm lift surgery), our most modern arm sculpting treatments are non-invasive.
Long-Lasting Results
Because arm sculpting treatments remove fat cells, the results can be long-lasting, especially with proper maintenance and a healthy lifestyle.
Boost in Confidence
One of the biggest benefits of arm sculpting is the confidence boost it provides. Many people feel self-conscious about their arms, avoiding sleeveless tops or dresses. After sculpting treatments, clients often report feeling more comfortable, more confident, and happier.
How Patients Feel About Our Services
Body Sculpting Santa Barbara
5.0Out of 5 starsOverall rating out of 90 Google reviews
I’ve been coming to Josh Nissan at Body Sculpting Santa Barbara for four years, and every visit is worth it. As a busy person, I appreciate how he maximizes my sessions by stacking treatments. Now, with the AI system, the results are even more profound. I’m beyond happy with the outcome and the exceptional service Josh provides. Thank you, Josh, and AI Body Sculpting!
Josh is an artist! I was not confident in my body after two kids and after a session with Josh I felt like a new woman. He is knowledgeable and knows how to target the key areas to make the most impact. He is also very thorough and attentive to the process. He will not set up the machine and just walk away. He wants to make sure he maximizes every treatment. I’m truly blessed to have found him and would highly recommend him. I have diastatis recti and noticed the results almost immediately in my core strength. You will not regret an investment in yourself nor will you find anyone better than Josh. Take it from a skeptic - it really works!
I struggled with dry skin and acne and had tried countless products with little success. After seeing Josh, his skin treatments made a huge difference. He used a blend of South Korean serums and deep hydration—nothing harsh or aggressive. He understood my concerns and made the experience comfortable. Now, my skin looks amazing, and I feel so much more confident. Josh’s Signature Skin treatment truly delivers!
Saddle bags are gone ! Thank you so worth it
The services, professionalism and personal attention provided by Body Sculpting Santa Barbara are unparalleled. I leave treatment feeling my very best. Since starting my sessions I have received numerous compliments on my skin and overall appearance, 100% due to the treatments received. Josh provides next level service, the most up to date procedures, and is always introducing new techniques. I am very thankful for the after treatment follow-up and can’t wait until my next visit.
I had a wonderful experience at Body Sculpting Santa Barbara with Josh Nissan. The boutique is very clean and organized and my results have been phenomenal. I drive two hours just to see him because he is an expert in his field. Despite my efforts with diet and exercise, I couldn’t achieve the results I wanted until I came here. My skin is tight, my body looks great, and I’m thrilled with my transformation. Highly recommend Josh and his services!
I had the best experience with Josh and the results are amazing! Thank you for your expertise and caring during the treatments.
If your considering noninvasive body sculpting, look no further! Josh’s professionalism, intuition, compassion and knowledge set him apart. I have tried most of these machines with different practitioners in the area with no results. Josh’s expertise in combining modalities finally got me results (particularly in the bra bulge area). Thank you, Josh for your exceptional service and transformative impact. I’ll be back! Kim

The environment is super comfortable and safe, and Josh’s technique is unparalleled. He is up-to-date with all the latest research and incredibly passionate about what he does. There’s no other place I’d recommend for non-invasive treatments. I continue to drive down for other areas because of the fantastic results. Thank you so much, Josh, for your attentiveness and wonderful service. Dr. Lindsey Hailston

Ideal Candidates for Arm Treatments
- You Struggle with Stubborn Upper Arm Fat – If you have persistent fat pockets on your upper arms that don’t seem to budge, even with regular workouts and a healthy diet, arm sculpting can help.
- You Want More Defined Arms Without Surgery – Not everyone is ready for (or needs) surgical options like arm liposuction or an arm lift.
- You Are at or Near Your Ideal Body Weight – Arm sculpting is not a weight loss solution, but rather a body contouring treatment. If you’re already close to your target weight but struggle with excess fat or mild skin laxity in the arms, these treatments will fine-tune your shape.
- Your Skin Has Good Elasticity for Optimal Contouring – The best results come from skin that can adapt to fat reduction.
- You Are Committed to a Healthy Lifestyle Post-Treatment – Maintaining a healthy diet and active lifestyle is key to preserving your newly sculpted arms.
- You Do Not Have Severe Medical Conditions That Affect Healing – Uncontrolled diabetes, poor circulation, or a history of severe skin reactions are contraindications.
