Abdominoplasty or tummy tuck is best suited for women and men who are in relatively good shape, but have loose abdominal skin and/or a significant amount of abdominal fat that will not respond to dieting or exercise. As people age, the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun, and the stresses of daily life can be seen in their faces.
A facelift can't stop this aging process. What it can do is improve the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, and redraping the skin of the face and neck. A facelift can be done alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as a forehead lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping.

Dr. Kierney and his staff are amazing! Everyone I encountered for my abdominal liposuction were professional, caring and attentive. I never felt rushed or pressured. Any questions I had were always thoroughly answered, and my comfort seemed to be their top priority.
I have already recommended Dr. Kierney's office to my friends, and will absolutely return for other services.

I had a truly wonderful experience with my breast augmentation with Dr Kierney. He came highly recommended and definitely lived up to the expectation. The entire staff are very friendly and make you feel very comfortable. If you are interested in breast augmentation, I would 10/10 recommend coming here. I’m so happy with my results!

I went in for a lift and implants, they didn’t help with the sizing and i ended up choosing a size that was WAY too big for my body, about a month in all my incisions opened up and he told me my skin was just “sensitive”. i ended up with a botched job and had to get the implants removed and another lift just 6 months later from a different doctor who told me you never do the 2 procedures together since they cancel each other out basically. i think if we were to just do one at a time it would of had a way better outcome and i wish he would of told me in the beginning.

Dr. Kierney is an wonderful surgeon with great bedside manner and does amazing work. I had a "tummy tuck" July 2020. My pain was beyond what most patients experience and Dr. Kierney and his team worked closely with me during this time. My results are only 5 weeks in and my incision and swelling are impressive. I highly recommend Dr. Kierney and his team of professionals.
