Dr. Marie-Isabelle Al-Awa, born in Ukkel in 1988, brings a unique multicultural and international perspective to her medical aesthetics practice. Born to a Syrian father and a Belgian mother, she spent much of her childhood in the Middle East, primarily in Dubai and Jeddah, where her parents worked in hospital management, consultancy, and university education. This rich background has shaped her patient-centered and culturally sensitive approach to care.
Dr. Al-Awa earned her MBBS with distinction in 2014 and completed an advanced specialization in aesthetic medicine at the Collège International de Médecine Esthétique in Paris, where she was certified in 2016. She further refined her expertise with advanced training in London and has since been recognized by the Belgian Society for Aesthetic Medicine as an aesthetic doctor.
Her specialties include advanced techniques for botulinum toxin and filler injections (with needle and cannula), mesotherapy, platelet-rich plasma treatments, medical cryolipolysis, non-surgical facelifts, HIFU, medical peels, and radiofrequency therapies. With an average of 600–700 treatments per year, Dr. Al-Awa is known for her commitment to delivering safe and excellent results.
In 2017, Dr. Al-Awa founded International Medical Aesthetics in Waterloo, where she built a loyal client base through personalized, high-quality treatments. After relocating to Schilde in 2021, she joined Svelte Kliniek in Brecht, where she continues to strengthen her reputation while learning Dutch to better communicate with her patients.
Dr. Al-Awa adopts a holistic approach and assesses the face as a whole to achieve natural, refreshed, and balanced results. She combines artistic precision with advanced techniques, ensuring that each treatment respects the unique features and goals of her patients.
As a mother of two boys, Dr. Al-Awa manages to balance her professional commitment and family life in an inspiring way. She is also a passionate trainer who teaches fellow doctors advanced aesthetic techniques and contributes to the advancement of aesthetic medicine in Flanders.
Fluent in English, French, and Dutch, Dr. Al-Awa is praised for her meticulous attention to detail, empathetic care, and unwavering dedication to patient safety and satisfaction.
