We are counting down to tomorrow! Make sure you don’t have to think about anything else. Then you can be completely relaxed for a smooth course of treatment.

Take it easy for the first few days. Cool your eyes regularly to promote recovery. Our doctor will explain to you how to do this.
We wish you the best of luck today! Our team is ready to make everything go as smoothly as possible. With our care, recovery can begin safely.
During the first few days, the swelling around your eyes gradually decreases. This may be accompanied by blue discoloration. This is normal and a sign of recovery.

You may wear makeup again, but avoid bright sunlight on your eyes. This can actually cause irritation.
After 2 weeks, the last swelling is also completely gone. You can resume all activities, including sports.

Until then, you can still enjoy the results of the first treatment. Should questions or doubts arise in the meantime, please let us know. Together we will find the best solution.
For more than 15 years I have been working as a plastic surgeon. After studying medicine at the University of Amsterdam, I specialized in plastic and reconstructive surgery.
During my training, I did internships in several hospitals at home and abroad, where I expanded my knowledge and experience. I then started working as a plastic surgeon at the Spaarne Gasthuis, where I focused on reconstructive surgery, trauma and general plastic surgery.
More recently, I focused on cosmetic surgery at a private clinic. I now use my broad expertise at Clinic het Bolwerk to treat clients with the best care. With my years of experience, I enjoy helping others with plastic surgery procedures.

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!

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.
Like other cosmetic procedures, eyelid surgery carries a small risk. Our specialist performs each procedure carefully to avoid complications.
Temporary symptoms such as swelling or bruising occur, but usually disappear quickly. Permanent scars or scarring are extremely rare.
Thanks to our many years of experience, we know how to best manage recovery. We are happy to explain how we minimize the risks and maximize your healing.
Cosmetic eyelid surgery is usually not covered by basic insurance. It may be reimbursed in some supplementary packages.
If there is a medical indication, there is a chance of (partial) reimbursement. Contact your insurer for this.
You can, of course, pay for the treatment yourself. We are transparent about our fees.
During the intake interview we are happy to discuss the options with you. Together we look for the best, most affordable solution. Our focus is on a natural result.
We obviously respect the privacy of our clients. Although we like to show what is possible, displaying individual photos without permission is not allowed.
During the consultation, we openly and honestly explain what to expect. You can bring your own photos to discuss your situation.
This way we can explain the treatment process of overhanging eyelids and the possible results. We do this without using sample photos.
Our focus is on informing you about what this procedure can do for you. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Together we will find the best solution.
