Body contouring covers a range of procedures aimed at reshaping areas that haven't responded to diet or exercise. This includes liposuction (removing fat through a cannula), tummy tucks (abdominoplasty), body lifts after major weight loss, and non-surgical fat reduction like CoolSculpting. Some patients combine liposuction with skin tightening or muscle repair, especially after pregnancy or significant weight change. There are 5 practices in Oakville offering some form of this work, ranging from surgeons who handle only surgical cases to clinics that also run non-invasive machines.
The surgeon's core training matters more than the marketing around a specific technique. Look for board certification in plastic surgery, not just a general cosmetic medicine license, and ask directly how many liposuction or contouring cases they perform in a typical year. Where is the procedure done: an accredited surgical facility or a hospital, versus a back-room clinic setup? Ask to see real before-and-after photos of patients with a body type similar to yours, not just the best-case examples on a website. A proper consultation should include a frank conversation about what liposuction can and can't fix, since it removes fat volume but doesn't tighten loose skin the way a tummy tuck can.
Our ranking weighs credentials, facility accreditation, consistency of results shown in patient photos, and how clearly a practice communicates risks and realistic outcomes, alongside patient feedback. The full methodology is explained at our methodology page. For the full ranked list of Oakville plastic surgeons, including those handling body contouring, see the best plastic surgeons in Oakville.

5 businesses, scored on recent reviews. The order weighs each business's overall score by how much of its reviewed work is body contouring & liposuction, so a lower-scored specialist can rank above a higher-scored generalist.
Dr. Sapra's team delivers consistent, personalized care with nursing staff who excel at making patients comfortable and explaining procedures. Patients travel distances to return, citing speedy appointments, tangible results from procedures like cyst removal, and a welcoming environment that feels unlike a typical clinic.
Patients consistently report excellent surgical outcomes, particularly with Dr. Hong for breast procedures and Dr. Waltho for ear surgery, citing natural-looking results and smooth recovery. Post-op support stands out, with coordinator Janet and staff like Mahwish and Monique frequently praised for attentiveness and follow-up. Two older complaints mention wait delays and staff rudeness, but recent reviews (weeks to months old) focus entirely on quality care and results. The clinic handles both major surgery and skin treatments. Non-surgical services like HydraFacials and microneedling draw separate praise for results and a calm environment. Surgeons earn trust through thorough consultations where patients feel unhurried.
Strong surgical outcomes earn praise from most reviewers, especially for specialized cases like keloid removal and liposuction. Dr. Sapra and Dr. Khanna receive consistent mention for knowledge, skill, and minimal scarring. However, a subset of patients report billing errors (double-charged for treatments around $2,500), disorganized scheduling, rushed appointments under five minutes, and unresponsive management. Front desk professionalism varies, and aftercare guidance is inconsistent despite high treatment costs.
Over four years, patients consistently report exceptional care: Dr. Kolenda and his team deliver natural-looking results on rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, facelifts, and other procedures, with minimal scarring and strong follow-up. Staff including Veronica and John are praised for listening carefully, explaining procedures thoroughly, and making patients feel genuinely supported. A small number report disappointing surgical outcomes or uncomfortable initial interactions; one patient found the coordinator defensive during consultation. Non-surgical clients note particular skill in custom facial treatments and injectables. Recovery support goes beyond standard care, with options like hyperbaric oxygen therapy available. The clinic has maintained a reputation across Oakville for 20+ years under Dr. Kolenda's leadership, drawing long-term repeat clients for both procedural and ongoing skin maintenance.
Five-star reviewers praise Dr. De Kleer's surgical skill, clear communication, and Michele's expertise with injectables; post-op care from nurses like Karen and Nurse Gottwald is frequently highlighted. However, one-star reviewers report serious surgical botches (breast reduction requiring in-home nursing, submental liposuction causing new lumps 1.5 years later), dismissal of complications, and upselling of treatments that caused permanent scarring, with management refusing to address complaints. The clinic excels in non-surgical services like CoolSculpting and laser treatments for engaged patients. Surgery appears to carry significant risk with this practice, based on multiple accounts of avoidable harm and lack of accountability.
