About us

learning is beautiful

In the heart of Amsterdam you’ll find UMA Institute. A full-service cosmetic clinic, training academy and research centre. This is where we champion every person’s right to look and live the way they want.
Our approach

think, see and do things the uma way

UMA is founded on a simple, shocking idea: that aesthetic medicine can - and should - be a force for good. All too often, it is dominated by short-term, procedure-lead action. We think it’s time to move the conversation beyond body parts to what really matters: treatment outcomes. And towards that uniquely empowering feeling of looking like the person you feel like inside. Each of us has a responsibility to move our profession forwards. We won’t do it through better technique alone. But with better judgement - and clear vision- there's surely a better way. Level up and learn to be confident.

Our philosophy

get your patients noticed, not your work

Jani van Loghem
Founder UMA Academy

Our philosophy is simple: aesthetics are as much about the doctor’s eyes as their hands. Indeed, the better our work, the more credit the world gives all our clients. Technique alone can’t ever transform a life in the same way your expertise and judgement can.
Our manifesto
Empty space, drag to resize

know what can go wrong.
know what can go right.
know why something works,
and when it won’t.
know why you’re being cautious, or brave.
know more than the products
in your dispensary.
know more than the treatments you offer,
or the tools you use to deliver them.
know how to express who
the patient wants to be.
