Wheeler Ervin S Md

General Practitioners

Arthritis
Medical Weight Loss
Weight loss, age, and genetics can all be culprits in giving upper arms a baggy, hanging look. Time spent in the gym and careful dieting do nothing to change the loose, droopy appearance. A simple solution to this condition is an upper-arm lift. An upper-arm lift will eliminate the droopiness, smoothen and tighten the skin, and give the arms a firmer, more youthful look.
Emergency Care

Pregnancy
Labor and Delivery
Due to the effects of time, childbirth, and breastfeeding, breasts can lose their natural perk and firmness, and nipples can become enlarged as breasts start to droop. For women in San Diego whose breasts have begun to sag, a breast lift, also called a mastopexy, can rejuvenate the breasts by restoring lift and shape. With a breast lift, the figure gains a more youthful and attractive appearance, boosting confidence and self-esteem.

Anxiety

General Surgery
San Diego Magazine awarded its coveted title of "Top Plastic Surgeon" to Dr. Ervin Wheeler in 2005 because of his exceptional skills, his outstanding record for safety, and his dedication to his profession. Dr. Wheeler has extensive general surgery training and more than 25 years of experience in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Dr. Wheeler's credentials go beyond being voted San Diegoâ€™s "Top Plastic Surgeon," however. In addition to providing patients exceptional care at his La Mesa practice, Dr. Ervin Wheeler trains future plastic surgeons as an Associate Professor at the University of Californiaâ€“ San Diegoâ€™s School of Medicine, where he is able to stay abreast of plastic surgery advancements and contribute to the future of medicine. Dr. Wheeler also works as a consultant to Cytori Therapeutics to develop adult stem cell treatments for cardiovascular, spine, and gastrointestinal disorders, and to find new approaches for aesthetic and reconstructive surgery using adult stem cells.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
Using advanced laser techniques, our La Mesa cosmetic surgeon can smooth lines and wrinkles and perform laser hair removal. Other skin procedures such as skin peels, BOTOXÂ® Cosmetic, and dermal fillers offer exciting aesthetic enhancement.
Eyelid Surgery
The eyes, more than any other facial feature, reveal your thoughts and emotions. However, sometimes the eyes don't tell the truth. Eyes that have droopy upper lids, puffiness, or dark circles can give the appearance that you are constantly stressed and fatigued, or even that you are unhappy or angry. This miscommunication can affect business and social life when the message conveyed by your eyes is misjudged by your acquaintances. Eyelid surgery performed by Dr. Wheeler can redefine the contours of the eyes and relieve them of a drooping appearance.
Liposuction
Our advanced liposuction, tummy tuck, and thigh and upper-arm lifts can contour your figure to make you look and feel better by giving you the proportions you desire.
Breast Augmentation
Full, attractive breasts that give your figure an eye-catching appearance are possible with breast augmentation. San Diego beaches beckon you to show off in a new bathing suit. The bright lights of the Gaslamp Quarter or the soft lights of a candlelit dinner wait to illuminate your new form in that sexy dress. Contact our office today to learn more about breast augmentation and why San Diego women seeking breast implants choose Dr. Wheeler.
Breast Reduction
While many consider large breasts a blessing, those individuals who have overly large breasts know that they can be an imposition. Large breasts are often the source of nagging physical problems. Back and neck pain, breathing problems, and discomfort from bra straps digging into the skin can cause unending discomfort for many women in San Diego with large breasts. Breast reduction surgery can alleviate all of these problems.
Breast Lift
Dr. Wheeler performs the breast lift procedure on an outpatient basis at his surgical facility in La Mesa. The procedure generally lasts two to four hours. In the procedure, Dr. Wheeler removes excess tissue to lift and reshape breasts. He repositions the areolas so that they sit higher on the breast, and, if necessary, reduces their circumference.
Rhinoplasty
The nose is the most prominent feature of the face. When nature bestows a shape that doesnâ€™t suit your facial ideal, or an injury has altered the shape of your nose, Dr. Wheeler can reshape your nose with rhinoplasty for a much more aesthetically appealing appearance. A procedure often requested by our San Diego clients is rhinoplasty, or reshaping of the nose. Rhinoplasty can reduce or enlarge nose size. It can adjust the angle of the nose and reduce the span of the nostrils.
Plastic Surgery
La Mesa plastic surgeon Dr. Ervin Wheeler regularly extends his healing hands beyond the borders of San Diego County. To help the less fortunate, Dr. Wheeler travels to Mexico several times a year as a volunteer with the Interface organization. In Mexico, he serves the poor by providing free plastic surgery services such as cleft-lip and palate repair, burn scar reconstruction, and repair of facial trauma. Dr. Wheeler takes pride in his more than 20 years of medical work helping the less fortunate. It has been a very rewarding part of his life.
Face Lift
When signs of aging have become more apparent on the face than is acceptable, and when daily stresses of life coupled with the natural effects of gravity have given the face a sagging, perhaps jowly look, a facelift can provide a solution. The sun-and-sand lifestyle associated with San Diego can necessitate a facelift as well, as environmental factors such as sun and wind often cause premature aging.
Neck Lift
A neck lift provides an effective remedy when age leaves skin on the neck loose and hanging, giving some individuals a "turkey wattle." However, neck lifts are not reserved exclusively for the effects of aging. Patients who have lost excessive weight often find that the neck does not return to a slim, tight look. And, sometimes family genetics bestows a loose, fleshy neck. Whatever the cause, only a neck lift can give the neck a tighter, more physically fit appearance.
Blepharoplasty
Cosmetic eyelid surgery, also called blepharoplasty, entails the removal of fat and any excess skin or muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. The procedure generally takes one to three hours, and is usually performed with local anesthesia in combination with oral or intravenous sedatives. Eyelid surgery is typically an outpatient procedure â€” you'll be able to return home the day of your eyelid surgery.
Abdominoplasty
Sometimes dieting and sit-ups do nothing to tighten the abdomen and keep it from protruding over the belt line. An abdominoplasty procedure, also called a " tummy tuck," can remedy this problem and give a trim, conditioned look. Abdominoplasty can also help when pregnancy stretches abdominal muscles to the point where they cannot return to their original tightness. For those who seek the trim abdomen characteristic of a healthy lifestyle in San Diego, body contouring with tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) surgery can remove fat and tighten muscles to achieve the desired look.
Nose Surgery
Body Lift
Otoplasty
Because the ears are almost fully developed at the age of four, otoplasty can be performed on a child at an early age. Dr. Wheeler makes a small incision on each ear and removes a little slice of cartilage. The ear is then stitched so the remaining cartilage fuses as it heals. The procedure can pull ears back closer to the head, and it can reduce the size of the ears. Other otoplasty procedures can correct misshapen ears caused by genetics or the results of excessive ear pulling.
Scar Revision
How Dr. Wheeler performs a scar revision procedure depends on the type, location, and size of the scar. Keloid scars, which look almost like red or dark growths on the scar site, can be injected with steroids. If steroids prove ineffective, Dr. Wheeler can remove them with surgery. Dr. Wheeler can also use surgery to treat hypertrophic scars, which are the red, raised tissue often resulting from cutting injuries. He can remove much of the scar tissue and reposition the incision so that it is less conspicuous. Burn scars or those resulting from a large-area skin loss can be treated with skin grafts or Z-plasty, a surgical technique for obscuring and repositioning a scar.
Lip Augmentation
Primarily the same product as Restylane but contains a larger concentration of hyaluronic acid and is used for larger deeper folds. PerlaneÂ® is an injectable cosmetic dermal filler that has been used to soften wrinkles and facial folds of patients across the world. It is also a popular filler for lip augmentation, facial depressions, and facial scarring.
Body Contouring
Dr. Wheeler understands the frustration of being unable to reduce the size of thighs and buttocks despite ample exercise and healthy eating. He will listen carefully to your goals and explain how a thigh and buttock lift and perhaps other body contouring options can help you achieve the results you seek. Contact Dr. Wheeler for a private consultation to learn more about how body contouring can benefit you.
Gynecomastia
Men with prominent breasts often go to great lengths to conceal their condition, as comments about large breasts can cause acute embarrassment in the toughest of males. It may be helpful to know that the condition is not unusual. Known as gynecomastia, excessive breast tissue affects a surprising 40 to 60 percent of the male population in San Diego and worldwide. Male breast reduction surgery can reduce breast size for a flat, firm chest.
Cosmetic Surgery
Our La Mesa cosmetic surgeon offers all San Diego County residents the finest cosmetic surgery services available.
Dermabrasion
In addition to the treatments listed above, Dr. Wheeler performs deep surgical Dermabrasion in his surgical center. This procedure causes deep resurfacing of very intense facial wrinkles and improves deeper acne scars. This technique is a traditional technique, which is an alternative to CO2 laser, giving the greatest degree of improvement possible. It requires approximately two weeks of healing time before cover-up make-up can be applied. Pinkness of the skin will fade over approximately two to three months. As for the CO2 laser, this gives the most affective improvement of deep facial wrinkles and acne scars, but requires a longer healing time then the procedure noted above.
Facial Implants
Facial implants provide aesthetic enhancement to both the young and not-so-young. A girl in her teens may choose facial implants to bring balance to her face by enhancing the chin or cheekbones. An older patient may have facial implants to improve a sunken appearance brought on by age. Versatile facial implants can add proportion to the face and strengthen facial features with remarkable results.
Forehead Lift
During a forehead lift procedure, Dr. Wheeler removes or modifies the tissue and muscle underlying the forehead to eliminate the drooping and lines. The incision is made well within the hairline so that any scarring remains hidden. To get an approximate idea of how a forehead lift can give you a more alert, refreshed appearance, face a mirror and place your hands on the side of your face at the outside edges of your eyes above the eyebrows, then gently pull up and back.

Skin Cancer
Squamous Cell Carcinoma: This skin cancer occurs in about 16 percent of cases. Though squamous cell carcinoma can attack skin in any part of the body, it most commonly occurs in areas exposed to ultraviolet rays. Signs of the cancer look much like those of basal cell carcinoma.
Acne Treatment
Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a procedure that uses a chemical solution to peel away wrinkled, blemished, unevenly pigmented, or sun damaged facial skin. We offer a variety of peels as indicated by your skin texture and pigmentation level. The procedure is non-invasive and poses little risk. Deeper peels are best controlled using laser technology. The result is softer, smoother, and more youthful looking skin.
Skin Care
At the Laser Skin Care Center our R.N. Jeanne Dean can provide you with immediate results by using any one of the injectables. These various injectable fillers help to restore your skins volume and fullness.Â These injectables are used in the correction of wrinkles on the face and undesired folds in the facial skin, giving you the results you desire in just one day.
Microdermabrasion
This lunch break peel fits into anyoneâ€™s schedule, leaving you refreshed with softer and smoother skin. With a series of treatments it will diminish pore size, lessen fine lines, and reduce wrinkles. Combining the vibraderm with topical lotions and creams can maintain the character of your skin and lessen the solar damage that affects your skin on a daily basis. Vibraderm â„¢ can be applied to the hands, arms, and chest to give further improvements in areas other than the face. Contact our office in La Mesa, near San Diego, today to schedule a skin care or microdermabrasion consultation with Dr. Wheeler.
