Surgery of the face by prof. dr. Mommaerts in Bruges/Brugge

Doctor Maurice Mommaerts received his postgraduate surgical training and education in Zurich, Switzerland (for cranio-maxillo-facial surgery), in Leuven, Belgium (for head and neck surgery and oro-maxillo-facial surgery), in Miami, Florida (for plastic surgery) and in Nancy, France (for maxillo-facial and plastic facial surgery).

He obtained a doctor degree in medicine from the Catholic University of Leuven in 1984 (MD), a doctor of dental medicine degree from the University of Zurich in 1990 (DMD "Stability of surgical mandibular lengthening and its influence on the facial profile"), and a doctor of philosophy degree from the University of Ghent
in 2003 (PhD "Neurocranial suture autotransplantation in unicoronal craniosynostosis").

With the face as domain, he divides his interests between the surgical correction of congenital abnormalities (such as cleft & craniofacial surgery), the surgical correction of developmental facial abnormalities (orthognathic-orthofacial surgery) and anti-aging cosmetic surgery.
