I was very well looked after, and everything was explained to me step by step. The final result is exactly what I had hoped for, and I definitely do not regret the treatment. Recovery during the first week was quite tough, but after just one week I was already healing very well. The end result is exactly what I had envisioned for years. I am very satisfied.

I am very satisfied with the treatment at Kliniek het Bolwerk in Haarlem. Dr David Jairath took all the time needed to explain everything clearly and carried out the procedure with great expertise. The treatment of my seborrhoeic wart (POK) went smoothly and without any issues. His friendly and calm manner immediately put me at ease. The communication by email, with clear instructions before and after the treatment, was also very helpful. Absolutely recommended!

Only an initial consultation that does not lead to treatment.
Scar correction may be necessary when a scar has become distracting and affects your self-confidence. This may be the case with thick, prominent, painful, itchy or irregular scars.
Scar correction can be applied to different types of scars, including scars from surgery, traumatic scars after injuries or burns, and excessive scarring such as keloid scars.
Whether the cost of a scar correction is covered varies by health insurance. In some cases, a scar correction can be reimbursed if there is a medical necessity. Contact your health insurance company for more information on this.
After surgery, it is important to take good care of your scar to promote the healing process and reduce its visibility. We recommend using our sillicone cream daily.
This cream helps soften and reduce your scar. Also be sure to keep your scar clean and moisturized and protect it from the sun. Feel free to ask for more advice during your consultation.
