My name is David Jairath and I have been working as a plastic surgeon since 2004. I started my medical education at the University of Amsterdam. At this university I completed the specialist training to become a plastic surgeon.
During my studies I had the opportunity to do an internship in several hospitals in and outside the Netherlands. After my studies, I started working at the Spaarne Hospital in Hoofddorp, now part of the Spaarne Gasthuis with locations in Haarlem and Hoofddorp.
In this hospital setting, I engaged in reconstructive surgery and collaborated with colleagues in general surgery, hand surgery and general plastic surgery. In addition, I further specialized in cosmetic surgery through the clinic attached to the hospital.
I now put my vast experience of almost 20 years as a plastic surgeon to use at Kliniek het Bolwerk.

Ik heb een heldere uitleg gehad van de heer David Jairath tijdens mijn intake gesprek over een ooglidcorrectie. Heldere uitleg over wat er gaat gebeuren tijdens de ingreep en nazorg na de ingreep. Ik ben tevreden.

Ik ben voor de 2e keer geholpen aan een ooglidcorrectie door dr. Jairath de 1e keer was 17 jaar geleden .
Nu 3 weken geleden weer en ben weer heel blij met het resultaat. Het ziet er nu weer een stuk frisser uit. Hij is een zeer vriendelijke en kundige chirurg en je voelt je erg op je gemak bij de intake en behandeling.

Only an initial consultation that does not lead to treatment.
Like any surgery, an eyelid elevator carries limited risks. Temporary swelling and blue discoloration around the eyes may occur shortly after surgery. These are normal reactions of the body and usually disappear after a few days to a week.
Scarring or asymmetry in the final result are less common. Our specialist performs the procedure carefully to avoid complications as much as possible. In addition, proper aftercare significantly reduces the risk of side effects.
Eyelid surgery is not covered by basic insurance in most cases because it is a cosmetic treatment. Some supplementary insurance policies do offer coverage. It is therefore worth checking whether your health insurer will cover the costs if the procedure is medically necessary. For example, in cases of restricted vision due to swollen or drooping eyelids.
Should your insurance not cover the treatment, you have the option of bearing the cost yourself. We are transparent about the costs. Feel free to contact us for more information. Together we look at the different options to see which treatment best suits your situation. Our specialists are ready to answer your questions.
At Kliniek het Bolwerk, we respect the privacy of our clients. Therefore, we do not share “before and after” photos of eyelid surgery without permission. Although we are happy to show the possibilities, medical records and images are private.
However, clients can discuss their own photos with us during the intake interview. This way we give an honest picture of what is possible without revealing specific treatments. Of course, only with permission.
Our specialists are happy to explain what the expectations are. This allows clients to make an informed choice. Respect for privacy is paramount.
The recovery process after eyelid surgery is usually smooth. During the first few days, you can expect swelling and blue discoloration around the eyes. These are normal physical reactions. Take rest for the first 3 days.
After about a week, most of these symptoms disappear. One week after the procedure, the sutures are removed. From then on, you can resume all normal activities, although it will take some time before the final results are visible.
Within two to three weeks, most results are visible. Typically, our clients make an excellent and quick recovery after eyelid surgery at our clinic in North Holland.
