My name is David Jairath and I have been a plastic surgeon since 2004. After studying medicine at the UvA, I specialized in plastic surgery. During my training I did internships at home and abroad.
After my training I started working at the Spaarne Ziekenhuis, now the Spaarne Gasthuis with locations in Hoofddorp, Haarlem Zuid and Noord. Here I was involved in reconstructive surgery, trauma, hand and general plastic surgery.
I then specialized in cosmetic surgery at a private hospital clinic. I now put my broad experience to use at Kliniek het Bolwerk, where I treat my patients with the best care. With my expertise, I want to help others with plastic-surgical solutions.

Ik ben ontzettend tevreden over mijn ooglidcorrectie door David Jairath. Omdat ik in het verleden al eens een ooglidcorrectie heb ondergaan, had ik een goed beeld van wat ik kon verwachten. Juist daardoor viel deze ervaring extra positief op.
David Jairath is een zeer kundige en professionele chirurg, maar wat hem voor mij echt onderscheidt, is hoe toegankelijk en betrokken hij is. Hij neemt uitgebreid de tijd om alles duidelijk uit te leggen, luistert aandachtig naar je vragen en is ook na de ingreep goed bereikbaar. Dat gaf mij veel vertrouwen en een veilig gevoel gedurende het hele traject.
Ook de nazorg is uitstekend. Je merkt dat je als patiënt echt centraal staat en dat er oprechte aandacht is voor een goed herstel. Vragen worden snel en vriendelijk beantwoord, wat veel rust geeft.
Ik kan David Jairath dan ook van harte aanbevelen aan iedereen die een ooglidcorrectie overweegt. Een deskundige chirurg met een prettige, persoonlijke benadering en uitstekende nazorg. Ik ben erg blij met mijn keuze en het mooie resultaat.

Ik ben ontzettend blij met het resultaat van mijn behandeling bij dr. Jairath. Ik kwam voor een lipcorrectie vanwege littekenweefsel en vanaf het eerste consult had ik direct een heel prettig en vertrouwd gevoel.
Dr. Jairath is een vakman in hart en nieren. Zijn oog voor detail, precisie en professionaliteit geven je meteen het vertrouwen dat je in de beste handen bent. Hij neemt alle tijd, luistert aandachtig naar je wensen en legt alles duidelijk en rustig uit. Ook zijn assistente verdient een groot compliment. Zij is ontzettend vriendelijk, betrokken en zorgzaam en weet je vanaf het eerste moment volledig op je gemak te stellen.
De ingreep is zeer vakkundig uitgevoerd en het resultaat ziet er nu al mooier uit dan ik had durven hopen. Ook de nazorg is uitstekend. Alles wordt duidelijk uitgelegd en je merkt aan alles dat er met oprechte aandacht en liefde voor het vak wordt gewerkt. Ik ben enorm dankbaar voor de professionele én persoonlijke begeleiding. Ik kan dr. Jairath en zijn geweldige assistente dan ook van harte aanbevelen aan iedereen die op zoek is naar kwaliteit, vakmanschap, vertrouwen en persoonlijke aandacht.
Heel hartelijk bedankt voor de geweldige zorg. Ik had mij geen beter team kunnen wensen! 🙌

I visited Mr. Jairath for an eyelid correction and am extremely satisfied with the entire process.
From the first consultation through to the operation and aftercare, everything felt professional, clear and reassuring. Mr. Jairath is a highly skilled doctor with a great deal of knowledge and experience. He knows exactly what he is talking about, puts you at ease and gives honest, sound advice.
The procedure and guidance were in my opinion absolutely worth 5 stars. I am very happy with the result of the correction, my complaints have gone and I feel much better for it.
My compliments and thanks to Mr. Jairath.

During the intake consultation with Mr. David Jairath, I already had a good feeling about it. He gave a clear explanation of what the procedure entailed. After the intake, I also received additional information by email. The procedure itself was very relaxed. He explained each step clearly as we went along. Everything is done under local anaesthesia. We had a very pleasant conversation during the procedure and before you knew it, the treatment was finished. I received clear instructions on what to do after the procedure. After a week, the stitches were removed. I am very satisfied with the end result.

Only an initial consultation that does not lead to treatment.
As with other procedures, there are a small number of potential risks associated with eyelid surgery. We perform the procedure with the utmost care and attention to avoid complications as much as possible.
Temporary swelling and bruising sometimes occur after the procedure, but usually disappear within a week. Permanent scars are also rare.
With our comprehensive aftercare program, the chance of side effects is minimal. We use state-of-the-art techniques and have years of experience with hundreds of procedures.
We are happy to explain how we minimize risks and maximize recovery. Our patients know they are in good hands with us for a natural and beautiful result.
A cosmetic eyelid lift is usually not covered by basic insurance because it is considered an optional procedure.
Sometimes additional insurance does offer coverage. In cases of medical necessity, such as when the eyelids obstruct vision, there may be reimbursement for eyelid surgery from basic insurance.
Contact your insurer to find out if and to what extent they will cover the cost of an eyelid lift in your situation.
Should there be no reimbursement, you can also bear the costs yourself. We are transparent about our fees. Together with you, we look at which financial solution fits best.
At Clinic the Bolwerk, we value careful and confidential treatment. Although we like to show what is possible with eyelid lifting, we respect the privacy of our patients.
Therefore, we do not share medical images without permission. During a consultation, we do discuss expectations openly and honestly. Patients can also bring their own pictures.
Thus, we explain what the procedure entails and the possible results, without going into individual cases.
It is wise to rest for a few days because of swelling and bruising around the eyes. This is normal and decreases gradually.
About a week after the procedure, the sutures are removed. You can then carefully return to work and resume your normal activities.
It does take several weeks after that before the final results are visible. You usually see the greatest improvement within 2-3 weeks.
Our experience shows that clients recover relatively quickly. However, it is important to follow aftercare advice.
