Dr. Patrick Tonnard

Five years ago, I had my first consultation with Dr. Tonnard. I was no longer happy with my face: an incredible number of deep wrinkles, cracked skin, hamster jaws, drooping upper eyelids, etc., etc., etc. Dr. Tonnard suggested multiple, simultaneous (major) procedures to achieve optimal results: a facelift, eyelid correction, lip correction, fat injections, needling, and laser treatment. After the initial shock (was so much really necessary?), I decided to give the doctor carte blanche and agreed to his "all-in" proposal. The procedure and aftercare went surprisingly smoothly; the fear of the surgery had been wasted energy. Ten days after the operation, there was already a noticeable improvement. Six months later, and to date, the final result is simply stunning. The wrinkles and excess skin flaps are gone, my skin is healthy and flawless, my sunken face is plumper again, I instantly look 15 to 20 years younger, and my self-confidence gets a huge boost. I'm in love with myself again! I don't regret the procedure for a single millisecond, nor my decision to have Dr. Tonnard perform all my procedures. Thank you so much, Dr. Tonnard. You are the best, the best, the best!!!!!!!!

I had a second nose operation performed in the spring of 2021 by Dr. Tonnard, and I am extremely satisfied with the result. As a child, I had a sharp nose and was happy with it. Unfortunately, I suffered from respiratory infections regularly. The specialist at AZ Sint-Jan in Bruges recommended a nose operation to me (at the age of 16) so that I could breathe through my nose more easily. Months later, I noticed little difference in my nasal breathing, and the doctor had altered the top of my nasal bone so much that I was left with an upturned nose. I didn't like this. In my late twenties, I then consulted an aesthetic surgeon at AZ Delta Roeselare. He suggested removing a piece of bone from my thigh. Given that I have a paramedical background and also practiced athletics, I did not want to take the risk. The doctor also said that he would not do it himself. I had resigned myself to it until I read about Dr. Tonnard in a magazine. So, I went to see him for a consultation. This time not for a functional operation, but for an aesthetic nose operation. Dr. Tonnard suggested straightening my nose by taking cartilage from my ears and implanting it. Using photos, he created a computer simulation to show what my nose might look like after the surgery. I thought about it and formulated questions, which were fully answered by Dr. Tonnard during a subsequent consultation. I had a good feeling about it. Whenever I contacted the medical secretariat, they were extremely friendly, and I always received a clear explanation. The medical team introduced themselves to me the hour before the operation. This personal approach is reassuring and very pleasant. I remained calm about it myself, as I am not afraid of general anesthesia. My questions were also answered satisfactorily in the days following the operation. After that, I had to visit twice more to have the stitches removed. I received a very warm welcome. I know that if I have any further questions, I can always ask them via email, by phone, or by making an appointment. My nose feels like it used to; I now have a nose that aesthetically suits my facial contours better.
