Do you have trouble with a torn piercing? A scar? Or does your piercing no longer look good, for example, after a pregnancy? Maybe you simply want to get rid of it altogether. At Kliniek het Bolwerk, we offer safe and aesthetic solutions for a wide range of piercing-related issues.
With a minor procedure, we carefully restore the skin. This allows you to feel confident again as summer approaches. These treatments are suitable for the earlobe, navel, and other areas where piercings are commonly placed. You’re welcome to schedule a personal consultation for expert advice.

Has your piercing torn due to an accident, perhaps from getting caught on something? Or have you worn heavy or ill-fitting jewelry for too long, putting strain on the skin? In both cases, this can lead to a stretched or torn hole. Fortunately, it’s something we can treat effectively.
Our plastic surgeon performs a minor, safe procedure under local anesthesia. Damaged tissue is carefully removed, and the skin edges are neatly brought back together. This ensures a result that’s both medically sound and aesthetically refined.
Most clients heal with minimal or barely visible scarring. We’ll guide you with aftercare instructions to support smooth healing. And if you’d like to get re-pierced later, that’s often possible. We’ll advise you on the best timing and placement to help prevent the same issue from happening again.
Sometimes, you simply want to part ways with your piercing. Maybe it no longer fits your current phase of life. Or perhaps you’re experiencing irritation, discomfort, or a poorly healed scar. In some cases, the piercing may have been placed slightly off-center, which can be especially noticeable on visible areas like the earlobe or nose.
In all of these situations, we can help. We remove piercings with precision, under local anesthesia. The hole is carefully closed in a way that allows the skin to heal as smoothly and naturally as possible. We take into account both your skin type and your aesthetic preferences for the final result.
Our goal is a refined, subtle scar. We’ll also provide you with aftercare advice to support proper healing. This way, you can feel good about your appearance again, without visible traces of the previous piercing.
David Jairath has 15+ years of experience with aesthetic procedures.
Each treatment is tailored to your situation and needs through a personal consultation.
We meet the highest standards of sterilization, hygiene through a safety.
Our team will carefully guide you through the recovery process and answer all your questions, even after the procedure.
We recommend carefully considering your wishes first. Are you planning to get a new piercing in the same spot later? Or are you still undecided?
Bring this up during your consultation. In some cases, it’s better to wait before proceeding with a correction, so we can choose the most appropriate approach together.
If there is redness, swelling, discharge (pus), or pain, you may be dealing with an active infection. In that case, it’s important to let the area heal completely before undergoing a surgical procedure.
We’re happy to support you in this process, but full recovery should always come first.
As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks, such as infection, swelling, bruising, or scar formation. Fortunately, complications are rare.
We take every precaution to minimize risks. This includes working under sterile conditions, giving clear instructions, and offering thorough aftercare.
During the consultation, we’ll explain everything calmly and clearly. You’ll also hear what you can do yourself to support the healing process. Think of rest, avoiding pressure on the treated area, and keeping the skin clean and protected.

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.

Eyelid surgery
During the intake consultation with Mr David Jairath I already had a good feeling about it. He explained clearly what the procedure involved. After the intake I also received additional information by email. The procedure itself was very relaxed. He explained everything step by step during the procedure. Everything is done under local anaesthetic. We had a really nice conversation during the procedure and before you knew it the treatment was over. I received clear information on what to do after the procedure. After a week the stitches were removed. I am very satisfied with the final result.

The price of a piercing correction depends on your wishes and on what we discuss during the consultation. To always give you the right information, we keep all rates up to date in one central place. That way you can be sure you are seeing the most recent prices, including the first consultation.
On our rates page you will find the complete and current overview of all treatments.
No, the treatment takes place under local anaesthetic. At most you will feel a small prick when the anaesthetic is given, but you will not feel any pain during the procedure itself.
Most corrections take between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on the location and complexity. You can go home the same day after the treatment.
We use fine sutures and close the skin in a way that promotes the cleanest possible healing. In most cases, only a subtle scar remains, which can fade further with proper aftercare.
We recommend waiting at least 6 to 12 weeks, depending on how well your skin heals. During the follow-up appointment, we’ll assess the area and advise you on the safest time to re-pierce.
