The treatment process for eyelid surgery
1: Schedule an intake consultation
Would you like to know what eyelid surgery can do for you? Then schedule a no-obligation consultation. You can easily do this through our website, by phone or via WhatsApp.
During the intake consultation we take the time to discuss your concerns and wishes, examine the skin around your eyes and go through your medical background. You will receive honest and professional advice, fully tailored to your situation.
2: Tailored treatment plan
Based on the consultation, Dr Jairath draws up a personal treatment proposal. It sets out which technique will be used, what you can expect from the result and what the recovery looks like.
Of course, we also go through any risks with you. You will have every opportunity to ask questions, so that you can make your choice with confidence.
3: Scheduling the treatment
Do you decide to go ahead with the treatment? Then we schedule a suitable date together. We take your diary into account and advise you on a quiet recovery period.
You will receive clear instructions about what to arrange in advance, which medication you must (temporarily) stop using and what to bring on the day of treatment.
4: Preparing at home
Good preparation helps with a smooth recovery. Think of:
Getting enough groceries and personal care products in the house
- Having sunglasses ready for after the treatment
- Cold packs in the freezer
- Arranging transport for the day of the procedure
Allow yourself rest around the day of treatment, so that you can focus fully on recovery.
5: The day before the procedure
On the day before the treatment, we recommend going through everything calmly.
Get plenty of rest, follow our doctor's instructions and feel free to ask any questions you still have. A relaxed preparation makes for a more pleasant experience on the day itself.
6: The day of treatment
We expect you at our clinic fresh and clear-headed. The procedure takes about 45 to 60 minutes and is performed under local anaesthetic.
So you will not feel any pain, but you will remain conscious. Afterwards you rest with us for a little while, after which you go home with someone accompanying you. You will receive clear aftercare instructions and tips for your recovery.
7: The first days at home
Swelling or bruising around the eyes is normal in the first days.
We recommend avoiding physical exertion, cooling your eyes regularly and getting enough rest. Follow the instructions you receive from us and always contact us if you have any questions.
8: Follow-up appointment and removal of stitches
About a week after the treatment, you come back for a follow-up appointment. During this appointment the stitches are removed and we assess the healing process.
You will receive advice on scar care, for example with a scar cream. From this point on, you can gradually resume most daily activities.
9: Two weeks after the procedure
After two weeks, most of the swelling has gone and the result becomes increasingly clear. Your eyes have a fresh, rested appearance and you can use make-up or exercise again, unless advised otherwise. Of course, we remain available if you have any questions.
10: Long-term aftercare
Even after you have recovered, you can come to us for advice or extra follow-up appointments. We monitor your recovery in the long term, and if you were to develop symptoms again years later, we will look together at suitable solutions.
11: A possible second procedure in the future
In some people, the excess skin partly returns after ten to fifteen years.
Should you wish to consider eyelid surgery again in the future, we are ready to help you with the same care and guidance as with the first treatment.

Eyelid surgery
I am extremely satisfied with my eyelid surgery by David Jairath. Because I had already had eyelid surgery in the past, I had a good idea of what to expect. That is exactly why this experience stood out as so positive.
David Jairath is a very skilled and professional surgeon, but what really sets him apart for me is how approachable and involved he is. He takes plenty of time to explain everything clearly, listens carefully to your questions and is also easy to reach after the procedure. That gave me a lot of confidence and a sense of safety throughout the whole process.
The aftercare is also excellent. You notice that you as a patient really come first and that there is genuine attention to a good recovery. Questions are answered quickly and kindly, which is very reassuring.
I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend David Jairath to anyone considering eyelid surgery. A skilled surgeon with a pleasant, personal approach and excellent aftercare. I am very happy with my choice and the lovely result.

Frequently asked questions
What does eyelid surgery involve if you live in Hoorn?
Eyelid surgery is a treatment in which excess skin and sometimes fatty tissue around the eyes is removed. Many people from Hoorn choose this procedure when they notice that their eyes look more tired or when drooping eyelids affect their vision. The aim is to create a fresh and open look that suits your face.
For clients from Hoorn, the treatment takes place in Haarlem. During a consultation we look at your situation and discuss which treatment is most suitable. A natural result and your personal wishes are always taken into account.
Why do people from Hoorn choose eyelid surgery in Haarlem?
People from Hoorn regularly choose a clinic outside their immediate area when they are looking for experience, personal attention and a specialist approach. Eyelid surgery is a precision treatment, so the choice of practitioner often matters more than the distance.
At Kliniek het Bolwerk, a calm and personal approach is central. Many clients from Hoorn say they appreciate being well informed and receiving guidance throughout the whole process, from intake to aftercare.
What does recovery look like after eyelid surgery?
After eyelid surgery you can expect swelling and bruising around the eyes. This is a normal part of recovery and usually subsides within one to two weeks. For clients from Hoorn, this means you come back to Haarlem a few times after the treatment for follow-up appointments.
It is important to rest in the first few days and to follow the aftercare instructions carefully. Most people from Hoorn can resume their daily activities after about a week, although this varies from person to person.
Is the result of eyelid surgery permanent?
The result of eyelid surgery is generally long-lasting. Many clients from Hoorn enjoy a fresh and rested look for years after the treatment. However, the natural ageing process continues, so the skin may change again over time.
How long the effect remains visible differs from person to person and depends on factors such as skin type and lifestyle. During the consultation you will get a realistic picture of what you can expect.
Does eyelid surgery hurt?
The treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, so the procedure itself is usually well tolerated. Clients from Hoorn often experience at most a slight pulling sensation during the treatment, but no sharp pain.
After the procedure you may have some mild pain or a feeling of tightness. This can usually be treated well with simple pain relief and subsides quickly.
