While our San Diego winters aren’t exactly on a par with Erie, Pennsylvania, most of us aren’t donning our swimsuits and hitting Mission Bay in February. That makes this a great time for Dr. Kearney to take care of those pockets of stubborn unwanted fat with liposuction. With the exception of the LA Kings’ entire […]
Implant Revision Surgery — Do You Need It?
Everything has a lifespan. Breast implants are no different. Since they are manufactured, they won’t last forever. When you are considering breast augmentation with Dr. Kearney you do need to take into consideration that, depending upon your age, you’ll need at least two revision surgeries to replace your implants. There are cases where implants last […]
Fractions Are Your Friend
OK, so maybe you weren’t overly enamored with fractions in your middle school days. Denominator, numerator? Puhleeeeeeeze. But your skin loves fractions, at least when they’re provided by our Fraxel DUAL laser at Dr. Kearney’s. We use our Fraxel DUAL platform to improve our patient’s sun damage, areas of hyperpigmentation, and overall texture. In this […]
Fraxel Those Skin Issues Away
The Fraxel Laser has quite a following in the aesthetic world. As the original laser skin resurfacing treatment platform, it can seem like Fraxel is so 2000s.

How About Some Holiday Needling?
Although this year’s holiday season won’t likely be the usual free-for-all of parties and get togethers thanks to this dumb virus, at least most of us will still get together with extended family. And within those ranks there are sure to be some expert needlers, giving us the business about our new hairstyle or our […]
Building Collagen with Sculptra
Collagen does the heavy lifting when it comes to your skin. Collagen is the main structural protein that is found in animal connective tissue. Basically, it is responsible for keeping your skin firm, plump, and young looking. So, what happens when your collagen production decreases? Your skin sags, becomes loose, is more prone to wrinkling, […]
Channel Kirk Douglas
During this worst year ever, where we’ve all been stuck inside enough to have watched everything on Netflix. OK, that’s impossible, but you get the idea. Anyway, you may have come across an old Kirk Douglas western or his most famous role, Spartacus, and you sat back and admired that chin of his. Damn. Now […]
Smile Lines Can Be Scary
