The face naturally loses volume and begins to sag as aging progresses. Environmental factors, heredity, stress, and gravity contribute to visible signs of facial aging. Dr. Kearney offers expert facelift procedures to help San Diego patients rejuvenate their facial appearance.
What is a Facelift?
A facelift, medically known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to reverse various signs of aging in the face and neck. This comprehensive technique reduces facial wrinkles and improves facial contour, helping patients achieve a more youthful appearance.
