Eyelid surgery Hoofddorp

Did you know that droopy eyelids can make you look more tired than you feel? Over the years, the skin around your eyes can loosen, causing the eyelids to pull down. This can cause fatigue and an older appearance.

An eyelid correction at our clinic near Hoofddorp can change this. During a short procedure, we remove the excess skin, returning the eyelids to their natural position. The result is a fresher and more rested look.

Wondering what your eyes might look like after surgery? Make an appointment for an initial consultation. Our experienced plastic surgeon will be happy to discuss your wishes and possibilities. Together we will see if an eyelid correction is something for you.

Does something unexpected come up that prevents you from attending the appointment? Please let us know as soon as possible so we can reschedule. In the meantime, we’ll give you tips on how to prepare. This way we make sure that you and we are optimally equipped for the procedure.

Step 5: Recover to the max and prepare for eyelid surgery near Hoofddorp

It is wise to discuss the use of certain medications with your doctor in advance.
Make sure you have plenty of food and drink in the first few days of recovery.
Arrange transportation for after surgery so you can recover peacefully at home.
Provide a cold pack at home for after the procedure, small cold pack or sandwich bag with frozen peas in a washcloth.

Step 7: Eyelid surgery takes place near Hoofddorp

Today you are undergoing eyelid surgery near Hoofddorp. Make sure you shower this morning and arrive at our practice 15 minutes beforehand. Our experienced surgeon will carefully perform the procedure, which takes about an hour. Afterwards, there will be time to recover.

We recommend taking it easy for the first few days. Our specialist will explain how to cool your eyes to promote recovery. After the procedure, it is wise to be picked up.

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.

Step 8: The first few days of recovery

After the procedure, the swelling will gradually decrease. This may be accompanied by blue discoloration, which is normal.

Rest is important now for healing. Spend the first three days sleeping, reading and relaxing. Do not start strenuous activities right away. Sutures and bandages keep the wound closed. Do not touch them, but contact us if you are concerned about any peculiarities in the healing process.

We are happy to provide you with advice. If you are unsure about anything, please do not hesitate to contact us. By taking it easy during the healing period, together we will ensure that you recover better.

Step 9: One week after surgery

Within a week you can come back to have the sutures removed. There may still be some swelling at this point, which will gradually subside. Our specialist will remove the sutures and monitor the healing process. Then we will give advice for the final stage.

In this regard, we recommend applying a cream with vitamin E to the scars daily. Sun exposure on the eyes should also be avoided.

Furthermore, you can gradually resume more activities. Should you be out in the sun, wear sunglasses if necessary. Remember that complete healing only takes a few more weeks.

Step 10: After two weeks: enjoy the results

After about two weeks, all swelling is completely gone. You can now resume all activities, including sports. You are fully recovered and can once again enjoy your fresh appearance thanks to eyelid surgery.

Should you have any questions in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are also there for you afterwards. In the meantime, you can get back to work with a good feeling. We hope you enjoy your new look!

Step 11: Long-term support as well

After 10-15 years, excess eyelid fat can sometimes return in some patients. If this is the case with you, a second procedure offers a solution. In that case, contact us for advice.

During an intake session, we will review which treatment options are most appropriate at that time. Our team is happy to help you prepare.

Until then, you can enjoy the results of the first surgery. For questions or doubts in the coming years: we are always here for you. Our goal is to help you!

Drs. David Jairath, plastic surgeon

For more than 15 years I have been helping people with plastic surgery treatments. This is where my passion lies.

After studying medicine in Amsterdam, I specialized in plastic and reconstructive surgery. For this I did internships at home and abroad to broaden my expertise.

I recently founded Clinic the Bolwerk, where I put my broad background in reconstructive, trauma and cosmetic surgery to use. In particular, I often perform eyelid corrections. My years of experience allow me to treat each client with care and attention.

My mission is to help others with plastic surgery to improve their quality of life. This is what energizes me every day.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the risks and complications of eyelid surgery in Hoofddorp

What are the risks and complications of eyelid surgery in Hoofddorp?
Like other cosmetic procedures, eyelid surgery carries minor risks. David Jairath performs each procedure carefully to avoid complications.

Temporary symptoms such as swelling or bruising may occur, but usually disappear quickly. Permanent scars almost never occur.

Our years of expertise allow us to properly manage recovery, minimizing your risk of complications.

Should you have any questions about possible side effects, we are happy to answer them. Our goal is complete transparency and a safe treatment process.

Will my eyelid surgery at your place near Hoofddorp be covered by insurance?

Basic insurance usually does not cover cosmetic eyelid surgery. It may be that some supplemental packages do.

If there is a medical reason, there is a chance of (partial) reimbursement. Contact your health insurance company for this.

Of course, you can also pay for the treatment yourself. During an intake interview we will discuss the possibilities and rates together.

Our focus is on natural and affordable results. Together we look for the best solution for your situation and wishes.

Why doesn't Kliniek het Bolwerk show "before and after" photos?

To protect the privacy of our patients, we do not show individual photos without permission. During the intake interview, we do explain the options and what to expect. Feel free to bring your own photos to discuss your situation.

This allows us to explain the treatment process and possible outcomes without using examples. Our focus is on informing you about what the procedure can do for your case and needs. We are happy to answer your doubts or questions.

How do I reach the clinic from the Hoofddorp area?

From the Hoofddorp region, there are several ways to reach us. For example, you can drive via Heemstede and Haarlem, but this is often very busy during rush hour.

An easier option is to take the N201 to the N205, then turn right onto Prins Bernhardlaan, turn left at the traffic lights at the end onto Oude weg.

At the end there is an old city gate, turn right here and go past the dome prison under the railroad viaduct and then turn left. Follow this road across the bridge over the Spaarne, on your left you will pass the Haarlem train station. After the station, on your right is the entrance to Staten Bolwerk 1.
