Beautiful You MD Aesthetics Hosts September Open House
Discover the Latest in Anti-Aging Technologies
Keauhou-Kona, Hawaii Island—Find out all the ways to improve your appearance at the new Beautiful You MD Aesthetics at Keauhou Shopping Center Phase II. The public is invited to view the state-of the-art medical aesthetics clinic and meet owner/operator Dr. Ileana Sanchez-Anderson during a month long open house in September.
The doctor is no stranger to Konaʻs medical scene as she most recently served as owner/operator of Keauhou Urgent Care and was previously on staff at the Kona Kaiser Clinic.
Dr. Sanchez-Anderson was born in Ecuador and moved with her family to Los Angeles at age 12. Prompted by her family for academic excellence, she was one of a dozen gifted students in LA to attend college during her last two years of high school. She went on to attend UCLA where she developed a strong interest in medicine.
Along with her brother, Sanchez-Anderson was offered a full medical scholarship in her birthplace of Ecuador in exchange for two years of rural medical service. While very challenging, it prepared her to address most medical challenges as no other options existed for patients in areas such as the Amazon.
The doctor returned to the U.S. where she completed a four-year residency program in family practice medicine. After completing this extensive training, she moved to Hawaii in 2003 where she practiced as a family physician and hospitalist with Kaiser Permanente. Dr. Sanchez-Anderson opened her own Urgent Care Center in 2005 in Keauhou Shopping Center where she treated a wide variety of patients with life-threatening heart attacks, complicated facial lacerations and skin conditions.
During that time, the doctor developed a strong interest in non-invasive cosmetic procedures and anti-aging medicine. In 2019, she took leave from her Urgent Care Center duties to expand her expertise in aesthetics and enrolled in the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine. Dr. Sanchez-Anderson studied under Dr. Sharon McQuillan, a world-renowned medical aesthetics physician and medical director of Florida’s New You Medical Institute, where she became a fellow in aesthetics medicine.
“I love to paint, draw and decorate—make things pretty,” explains Dr. Sanchez-Anderson. “So I decided to put my passion into my profession to study and practice medical aesthetics.”
Aesthetic medicine focuses on altering a patientʻs cosmetic appearance by treating a wide variety of conditions: scars, moles, skin laxity, wrinkles, liver spots, skin discoloration, sun damage, spider veins, excess fat, cellulite and stretch marks.
In the spring of 2023, the doctor renovated her old Urgent Care Center and purchased some of the most advanced medical aesthetics equipment, including multiple lasers, advanced body sculpting machines and other leading-edge equipment such as a hard-shell hyperbaric oxygen chamber. Her new practice, Beautiful You, is now one of the most advanced aesthetic practice facilities in Hawaii.
Last summer, a new and revolutionary FDA-approved laser treatment and cure for acne called AviClear was unveiled. “This laser provides equal or better results than current medical treatments such as Accutane or antibiotics without the high risks and side effects,” says Dr. Sanchez-Anderson. Currently, Beautiful You is the only available AviClear acne treatment in West Hawaii.
Beautiful You is open for new patients and invites everyone to the month-long open house in September at the Keauhou Shopping Center across from the movie theatres. Stop by between 9 a.m.-4 p.m. for a tour of the office and staff will answer any questions you have about different treatment options.
