Reconstructive surgery starts with recovery: restoring shape, function and confidence after illness, injury, previous surgery or a congenital difference.
Dr Thomas Muyldermans combines reconstructive expertise with refined handling of tissue and anatomical structures.
Consultations take place at Surgiplast Clinic in Diepenbeek. Certain complex care pathways involve collaboration with Jessa Hospital in Hasselt.
Recovery is more than technique.
It needs explanation, calm
and care that continues to follow up.
The reason for reconstructive surgery can vary considerably. It may involve recovery after cancer, a defect following removal of a skin lesion, a scar, a burn or damage to soft tissue.
Medical history, function, tissue quality and expectations are reviewed together during consultation. The aim is a solution that is not only technically possible but also fits your wider care and daily life.
Microsurgery treats small blood vessels and fine structures with great precision. This expertise plays a role in breast reconstruction and reconstruction using the patient’s own tissue.
Dr Muyldermans also works as a plastic surgeon in Hasselt. Hospital-based reconstructive care and personal guidance in private practice are two complementary parts of the same expertise.
The cause, function, available tissue and previous treatment determine which options are responsible.
You receive information about simple correction, local tissue movement, your own tissue and microsurgical options.
Some reconstructions require several stages and focused follow-up in the short and longer term.
Breast
Reconstructive surgery starts from recovery after a medical condition, injury or previous procedure. Aesthetic principles remain important to restore shape and proportions as naturally as possible.
Consultation can take place in Diepenbeek. The operating location depends on scope and medical context; certain complex procedures involve collaboration with Jessa Hospital.
No. A local correction or tissue movement may be sufficient. Microsurgery is used when fine blood vessels or free tissue transfer are required.
