MEDICAL DIRECTOR / OWNER
Dr Sarah Kennea lives and works in Whistler, BC. She is the founder and Medical Director of Whistler Medical Aesthetics, a state-of-the-art clinic and training centre in the coastal mountain region of BC.
Dr. Kennea graduated with her Medical Degree from the University of Glasgow in 2001 with an Honors degree in Immunology and Doctor of Medicine.
Dr Kennea has qualifications and extensive experience in general practice and forensic medicine. Part of her career was served in the army. She has a wide range of medical interests which has taken her to qualify in such diverse areas as first responder medicine and the management of medical catastrophes.
Her time spent working in psychiatry gave her a lifelong interest in mental health and mental wellbeing which has fed into her approach to aesthetic medicine. Deep seated insecurities are often addressed in her aesthetic work.
Her approach and expertise in the MD Codes (injectables) has earned her a growing reputation, drawing patients from many international locations. Clients appreciate her precise eye for detail coupled with subtle, natural outcomes that enhance their natural features. Her work has brought her film actors whose careers depend on natural results which do not affect full mobility. Her work on an actor’s face is guided by a study of their face in action on the screen.
Dr Kennea is working closely with other experts in this field to further the research into the use of MD Codes and Myomodulation for medical applications. This includes working with patients with facial injuries and neurological weaknesses.
