Victoria Karlinsky-Bellini, MD, FACS

Cosmetic Surgeon to Manhattan and Westchester

Dr. Victoria Karlinsky-Bellini is a highly trained cosmetic surgeon whose background tells a tremendous story of overcoming one’s circumstances. After immigrating to the U.S. from Russia when she was just 13, she and her family had to build their life here from scratch. The difficult times Victoria—as she prefers to be called—and her family faced fueled her drive to pursue higher education and achieve a successful life. She worked multiple jobs from the age of 14 to 22 before going to medical school.

Dr. Victoria Karlinsky-Bellini is one of New York’s leading female cosmetic surgeons.

Dr. Karlinsky-Bellini and her husband Gabriele founded New Look New Life Cosmetic Surgical Arts in 2009. It was a brave step to break into the New York Cosmetic Market, but she knew they had something unique to offer.

Dr. Karlinsky-Bellini will listen to your goals for your face, breasts, and body and determine the best way to achieve your desired results.

“We created a boutique practice—One that gives truly individual attention to every person who walks through our doors. For my patients, I do every consult, every surgery, every injectable. I never leave the room or turn the procedure over to anyone. It was the way I was trained by my mentor, Dr. Howard Tobin. My patients know they will start and finish with me; that I am always available 24/7 via my private cell phone.”
