They completed their medical education at Radboud University Nijmegen, a respected Dutch academic institution. This training forms the basis of Dr. Kappen's approach to facial anatomy and surgical technique.

Dr. Kappen focuses on the deep plane facelift, a technique that repositions facial tissue beneath the muscle layer rather than simply tightening the skin. This method is favoured for producing natural-looking, longer-lasting results in facial aging.

Their listed specialties include deep plane facelift, cervicofacial rhytidectomy (a surgical lift of the face and neck), and general facelift procedures. Each addresses different aspects of facial aging with tailored surgical planning.

Beyond aesthetic surgery, Dr. Kappen has experience in cleft lip and palate treatment, a reconstructive discipline requiring precise anatomical understanding. This reconstructive background often deepens a surgeon's grasp of facial structure and healing.

Dr. Kappen also performs blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) and posterior Müller muscle-conjunctival resection, a refined procedure that corrects drooping upper eyelids. These treatments complement broader facial rejuvenation.

Dr. Kappen is affiliated with the University Medical Centre Utrecht, Maxima Medical Center, and Catharina Hospital. Practising within academic and regional hospital settings reflects a career grounded in institutional medicine.

Their surgical philosophy emphasises anatomical precision and results that respect a patient's natural features. The deep plane approach aligns with this goal by restoring facial contours rather than creating an overly tightened appearance.

Recovery is an important part of the deep plane facelift journey, and Dr. Kappen's hospital-based practice provides a structured environment for aftercare. Patients typically follow a monitored healing timeline over several weeks and months.

Amsterdam itself offers a distinctive setting for facial surgery. The city blends historic elegance with modern medical infrastructure, drawing patients who value both discretion and clinical quality.

Dr. Kappen's combination of aesthetic and reconstructive experience distinguishes Dr. Kappen's practice. Surgeons who work across both fields often bring a comprehensive understanding of tissue behaviour, symmetry, and long-term outcomes.

Her patient focus centres on individualised planning. Each facelift consultation considers the patient's facial anatomy, skin quality, and personal goals before any surgical decision is made.
