Mijn loopbaan

Dr. Margot Den Hondt
Plastisch, Reconstructief en Esthetisch chirurg

Curriculum vitae Dr. Den Hondt: CV

"We zijn allemaal waardevol. We zijn allemaal uniek. En we zijn allemaal kwetsbaar. Plastische chirurgie kan iets heel mooi zijn. Een beslissing om iemand te opereren, is een weloverwogen keuze die je enkel voor jezelf mag nemen, in samenspraak met jouw chirurg en correct geïnformeerd. En als aan deze voorwaarden voldaan is, dan vind ik dat het mag. Dan vind ik dat je mag schitteren in de beste versie van jezelf; dat je jouw resultaat met trots mag dragen. De buitenwereld zal misschien merken dat er 'iets' is gebeurd. Dat je wat meer straalt. Maar bovenal weet jij dat je deze keuze om de juiste reden gemaakt hebt."

WILLEKEURIGE WEETJES

  • Margot is een introvert die houdt van presenteren en yoga. De boeken en podcasts van o.a. Brene Brown en Elke Geraerts inspireren haar om dicht bij zichzelf te blijven in haar professionele leven.

  • Spaghetti bolognaise is haar lievelingsgerecht.

  • Margot houdt van dansen en heeft jaren salsa lessen gevolgd. Om indruk op haar te maken schreef Nicholas zich ook in voor een reeks, met succes (naast de dansvloer).
