When the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery needed an expert to lecture on their 24th Global Congress in Miami, they knew to turn to Dr. Werner Beekman. Beekman is a wellknown plastic surgeon who is pleading for a new perspective on breast augmentation. It is an easy concept which is user friendly, easy to explain to the patient and with predictable results. Apart from performing breast surgery, Beekman is well-sought after for his expert facial corrections, hand surgery and body contouring. At his clinic, Beekman Klinieken, it is all about the patient, making them feel welcome and receiving a quality treatment. The clinic boasts three locations in the Netherlands: Hilversum, 124 | Issue 60 | December 2018
Lelystad and Emmeloord, with each one working to the same quality standard and having many satisfied clients. Beekman focuses on keeping people’s natural look and helping them feel more in-tune with their body and face. One of the testimonials left in the guest book in the reception of the Hilversum clinic says: “My view of the world was limited, when someone gifted me an eyelid correction. I was well informed and decided to go for it. What a knowledgeable man, Dr. Beekman! Also, a big thank you to his staff who guided me through with a smile. I am now leaving the door happy, wishing I’d done this years ago. Not only do I have a more positive outlook on life now, Dr. Beekman has also given me a better view.”

Therefore, many breast enhancements look nice after the event, but, within a few years, need a correction. That is why he decided to focus his PhD research project on facts and fiction surrounding silicone breast implants. Now, almost 20 years later, he is considered a prominent authority on the subject. “A breast augmentation should be a custom job,” says Beekman. “Every woman is different: there is great variation in proportions, fat and tissue. This should all be considered in creating the most beautiful breasts. You need a well-designed plan
