If you follow the aesthetic world, you’re no doubt familiar with the Brazilian butt lift. This fat transfer procedure has become quite popular with women who want larger bottoms. But you’ve probably also heard of the darker side, including a few deaths when these procedures have been performed by less than talented doctors. Dr. Kearney […]
Women are Happy with their Augmentation Surgery
Breast augmentation is a popular procedure with Dr. Kearney’s patients. And San Diegans aren’t outliers there — augmentation has been the most popular cosmetic surgery in the U.S. for the last two years and it is perpetually now either first or second in annual statistics. The yearly number of American women having this surgery is […]
Tighten Your Facial Skin with FaceTite
Everyone wants to have firmer, tighter skin. That’s the tenet of youthful skin. But declining collagen, sun damage, and slackening tissues all conspire to give us flattened cheeks and sagging across our mid and lower face. Obviously, a facelift with Dr. Kearney could address these issues. But many patients aren’t interested in surgery, at least […]
Bellafill Is an Enduring Presence
Dermal fillers are little marvels of technology, when you get right down to it. When injected beneath a line, crease, or area of volume loss, the filler either binds with water molecules or provides other framework to push the skin back up and erase the depression. The only problem with most dermal fillers is that […]
Microneedling with RF Energy — Morpheus8
Microneedling has been around the aesthetic world for a couple decades, but improving techniques and technology, such as the Rejuvapen we use at Dr. Kearney’s, have made microneedling a really popular, successful stand-alone treatment for improving skin texture. But what if you take a good thing and add another? That’s Morpheus8, microneedling that is combined […]
Liposuction Away the Unwanted Fat this Winter
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. Well, the original Fraxel laser did debut in 2004; it was the first treatment that sought to use the skin’s wound-healing mechanisms to improve the skin. Today, Fraxel […]
Mommy Makeover for the New Year
In Dr. Kearney’s first December blog we discussed some of the basics of the mommy makeover, the combination of surgeries targeted at reversing the changes made in a woman’s body as the result of pregnancy, delivery, and breastfeeding. In this second blog, let’s get into some more details. How long after having my last child […]
