Why choose a facial specialist?

The face is the most expressive and recognizable part of our body. Who you entrust your face to is therefore a decision you make with care. Discover what makes the difference.

Aesthetics and function go hand in hand

In the world of facial surgery, everything revolves around balance. A craniomaxillofacial surgeon specializes in both soft tissue and bone surgery of the face. A necklift repositions the soft tissues in the neck region for cosmetic purposes, while a chin correction or jaw correction is a procedure that can achieve a similar effect on the profile of the face by advancing the patient's own bone structure (genioplasty)—a functional procedure with significant aesthetic benefits.

A facial surgeon examines and can treat all tissues in your face. The well-known saying 'If all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail' does not apply in a field that is so exclusively and deeply specialized in the face.

Repetition and experience make the difference

A specialist in the face operates exclusively in the face. This is not only important, this is essential. The more often your surgeon performs a particular procedure or the more often your surgeon operates in a particular anatomical region, the greater his expertise in it will be.

The face is the main focus

Your face deserves the care of a specialist. Just as one would not hire a criminal defense lawyer for a divorce, a patient would not consult a hip surgeon for a shoulder problem either. The face is the most unique and personal part of our body. That is why it is important to entrust it to a specialist in the field. A facial surgeon focuses on the face.

Rejuvenation with respect for anatomy

Rejuvenation is not about creating a new look or identity, but about restoring the youthful anatomy and appearance of the face. Rejuvenating facial surgery is therefore specifically about reversing the age-related changes in the anatomy of the face. It is about respecting the natural anatomy without altering the unique features.

This requires an in-depth understanding of the underlying anatomy, soft tissues and bone, as is taught from the foundation of a craniomaxillofacial surgery residency.

Passion and deep respect for the face

Facial surgery is not just a profession. It is a passion. Every procedure is the result of years of dedication, study and collaboration with the best in the field. Dr. Van Genechten travels worldwide each year to refine his knowledge and techniques, with the goal of offering his patients the very best. Every face he treats is a mission and an opportunity to achieve the perfect rejuvenation, with respect for the individuality and naturalness of the face.

With Dr. Van Genechten, you choose a specialist who has mastered the science and anatomy of the face and the art of facial rejuvenation. His mission: a face that is younger, not different, and that reflects the best version of yourself.
