I am David Jairath, plastic surgeon since 2004. I studied Medicine at the University of Amsterdam where I also did my specialization as a plastic surgeon. During my training I did several internships at home and abroad.
After my training, I started working at the Spaarne Hospital Hoofddorp. Nowadays this is the Spaarne Gasthuis with 3 locations in Hoofddorp, Haarlem Zuid and Haarlem Noord.
In hospital practice, I preformed breast reconstructions in conjunction with general surgery, trauma (plastic surgery), hand surgery and general plastic surgery. In the private clinic (Plastic Cosmetic Center Spaarne) I further specialized in cosmetic surgery.
The years of experience I gained there I now use for my clients at Kliniek het Bolwerk.

It’s only been three weeks and I haven’t even fully done my makeup yet, but I’ve already received many compliments!!!
Thank you again so much
Dr. Jairath!

Fibroma removal
After doing a lot of research, I ended up choosing Klinik Het Bolwerk. I have quite a few moles on my face that I wanted to have removed. For me, it’s very important that this is done as beautifully as possible, cosmetically speaking. The procedure was done a little over two weeks ago, and I have to say that I am very satisfied with the size of the scars. I can see that the doctor used the smallest possible method to remove my moles. I really appreciate this, because it will help the result look as good as possible. Next month, I will have the remaining moles removed, as I am very happy with the current progress. In addition, I find the doctor very trustworthy, friendly, and social. All bonus points!

Eyelid surgery
For the second time in my life, I had an eyelid correction done and I am very satisfied and happy. The procedure was completely painless and Dr. Jairath kept chatting pleasantly so I never had time to feel nervous. The recovery also went quickly and I feel reborn and ten years younger!

Piercing holes removed around my mouth. Mr Jairath is friendly, explains things clearly and takes his time. I was very nervous and he was very patient with me and not rushed, which you often experience in other clinics where it feels a bit like an assembly line. I am extremely happy with the result, and this is not even the final result yet!

Only an initial consultation that does not lead to treatment.
As a plastic surgeon, I have years of specialized training and experience in aesthetic surgery, including eyelid surgery. This ensures not only a safe procedure, but also high-quality cosmetic results.
Choosing a plastic surgeon means investing in quality, precision and peace of mind, a difference that goes beyond price.
As with any surgery, there are a small number of risks associated with eyelid surgery. For example, there may be temporary swelling and bruising around the eyes. However, this is normal after such procedures and disappears on its own within a few days to a week.
Scarring and asymmetry of the eyes are less common. We perform the procedure meticulously to minimize the risk of side effects. With proper aftercare, the risk of complications is very low.
Eyelid surgery is usually not covered by basic insurance (in The Netherlands) because it is a purely cosmetic procedure. Some supplementary insurance policies do offer coverage. It is wise to check whether your insurer will cover this procedure if it is medically necessary, for example, in cases of poor vision due to swollen or drooping eyelids.
Should your insurance not cover the treatment, you can pay the cost yourself. We are transparent about the price. Feel free to contact us for more information about this and we will be happy to help you explore your options. Together we look at which treatment suits you best.
At Kliniek het Bolwerk, we do not share “before and after” photos of our eyelid surgery procedures. We do this out of respect for the privacy of our clients. Although we like to show the results of our treatments, we are not allowed to share medical information and photos without permission.
However, clients can discuss their own before and after photos with us during their intake. This way we like to give an honest picture of what clients can expect from us. This without going into individual treatments without permission.
The recovery process after eyelid surgery usually only takes about a week. In the first few days, there will be swelling and bruising around the eyes. This is normal after such a procedure. Take it easy for the first 3 days.
After about a week, these symptoms are almost gone. After a week, the sutures are removed. At that point, you will be fully on your feet again, although of course the results will take some time to appear.
Within 2-3 weeks you can already see most of the final results. Typically, our clients recover quickly.
