Long before it became a specialty, facial anatomy was simply a subject Dr. Myny found difficult to stop studying. Training first in general and reconstructive plastic surgery, Dr. Myny spent two years on staff at Maastricht University Medical Centre (UMC Maastricht), working across a broad reconstructive caseload before narrowing focus deliberately — to the face, and in parallel to gender-affirming chest surgery, an area where precise anatomical judgement matters as much as it does in any rejuvenation procedure.
That narrowing was intentional. A surgeon who operates on the same structures often enough comes to know exactly how they age, how they scar, and how they heal across different skin types and body types. It is a discipline built on repetition, not restriction.
Today, Dr. Myny holds registration as a plastic surgeon in Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France — a footprint shaped by training across borders, and by a patient base that has, increasingly, followed.

Almost thirty years of specialist practice, across two countries, sit behind every consultation — not as a marketing point, but as the reason a surgical plan can be made with confidence rather than guesswork.
International registration
Registered plastic surgeon in Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and France, and a Member of the UK General Medical Council. This cross-border registration allows Dr. Myny to consult and coordinate care for patients across all four countries — a particular advantage for international transgender patients seeking continuity between consultation and follow-up.
Practice philosophy
Every consultation begins with the same premise: safety and predictability are not the opposite of a good aesthetic outcome, they are the foundation of one. Dr. Myny does not promise a ‘transformation’ — a planned procedure, carried out with the anatomy already understood, produces a result that looks like the patient, only rested, more defined, or more aligned with how they see themselves.
