Serge Steenen is both a certified cosmetic physician KNMG—the official Dutch designation for experienced cosmetic physicians—and a dentist. He has a scientific research background and clinical experience in oral and maxillofacial surgery. He is also Chairman of the Scientific Committee of the Dutch Association for Cosmetic Medicine (NVCG).
At Faceland, his work as a cosmetic physician KNMG aligns seamlessly with his surgical background:
“I am convinced that neuromodulators and fillers will soon be as widely accepted as orthodontic braces, which today are often worn for cosmetic reasons. My view on beauty? I like to work with patients to find what suits them best. Personally, I prefer natural results. Above all, I believe it is most important that someone feels confident and satisfied with their appearance.”
With his extensive experience—having performed more than 2,000 upper eyelid surgeries—facial surgery speaks to him most:
“The face is central to someone’s identity, and with a correction you can truly make a difference for a patient.”
Given his background, it is no surprise that he has a particular affinity for lip treatments:“With filler, you can achieve a natural result very precisely and subtly when placed correctly. That is the challenge I enjoy most.”
Beyond medicine, Serge is also a medical illustrator and artist:
“You can learn the technical aspects of treating a wrinkle or creating a certain effect, but I believe creativity and an aesthetic eye are invaluable advantages.”
