Treating under-eye bags is a topic that comes up frequently at our clinic. For many people, under-eye bags are more than just a cosmetic concern — they can have a real impact on confidence and how others perceive them. Even when you’re well-rested, under-eye puffiness or hollowness can make you look tired or older. Fortunately, there are now several advanced, safe, and highly effective treatments available. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we combine medical expertise with cutting-edge technology to reduce under-eye bags in a natural, subtle way.

The cause of under-eye bags varies from person to person. Volume loss, fluid retention, skin laxity, or a combination of these factors can all contribute. That’s why we start with a thorough consultation to assess your skin and identify the underlying cause of your under-eye bags. From there, we create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

One of the most effective ways of treating under-eye bags is with hyaluronic acid fillers. These are used to restore lost volume beneath the eyes, smoothing the transition between the lower eyelid and the cheek. This results in a more rested and youthful appearance. For patients with thin or dehydrated skin in the eye area, we often recommend skin boosters. These deeply hydrate and improve the texture of the skin without adding bulk.

Another powerful option we offer is stem cell therapy, which enhances skin regeneration at the cellular level. This advanced treatment improves overall skin quality and elasticity, offering natural-looking rejuvenation. Microneedling is also a popular choice. By stimulating collagen production, microneedling helps tighten and smooth the skin, making it ideal for fine lines and mild sagging under the eyes.

One of our most innovative treatments is Morpheus8, a unique technology that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Morpheus8 targets deeper layers of the skin, tightening and firming the under-eye area for noticeable, long-lasting results — all without the need for surgery.

The best treatment for under-eye bags depends on your individual skin type and aesthetic goals. That’s why every journey at Kliniek Dokter Brandt starts with a one-on-one consultation. Together, we’ll determine the most effective, natural-looking approach to help you look as refreshed as you feel.

If you’re ready to treat your under-eye bags and achieve a brighter, more youthful appearance, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our expert team. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we specialize in subtle, refined results that bring out your best.

Hand Rejuvenation: Restore the youthful appearance of your hands

Hands are one of the first places where signs of aging become visible. While the face often gets the most attention, hands are exposed daily to sunlight, temperature fluctuations, and frequent use. This results in volume loss, visible veins and tendons, and thinning skin. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we offer effective, safe, and refined treatments to restore the youthful appearance of your hands.

Why choose hand rejuvenation?

The skin on the hands naturally contains fewer sebaceous glands, making it more vulnerable to dryness and aging. As we age, volume decreases and structures like veins and tendons become more prominent. Hand rejuvenation focuses on restoring this volume, improving skin quality, and softening visible signs of aging. The result is a naturally fresh and even-looking surface that is in harmony with the rest of the body.

Treatment options: Radiesse, stem cell therapy, and hyaluronic acid fillers

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we use the latest techniques in hand rejuvenation. We combine scientifically proven methods with an aesthetic approach for natural-looking results.

Radiesse

Radiesse is a biostimulating filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite. It immediately replenishes volume loss and simultaneously stimulates the body’s own collagen production. The skin becomes firmer, fuller, and better hydrated. Radiesse is especially effective for softening visible tendons and veins and provides long-lasting, subtle results.

Stem cell therapy

An innovative and powerful technique using the body’s own stem cells to improve skin structure and stimulate regeneration. This treatment is ideal for clients seeking a natural form of skin rejuvenation with a refined, biological approach. Kliniek Dokter Brandt uses only safe, medically approved methods that prioritize effectiveness and comfort.

Hyaluronic acid fillers

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in the body that is essential for maintaining hydration and volume in the skin. As we age, natural production decreases, leading to sagging skin and volume loss. With hyaluronic acid fillers, we can safely and precisely restore this volume. The filler is strategically applied to make hands look fuller and smoother while softening fine lines and wrinkles. The result is visibly younger-looking skin while preserving natural expression. This treatment is especially suitable for clients looking for a subtle, immediately noticeable improvement with no downtime.

What to expect

The treatment is virtually painless. A numbing cream may be used for additional comfort. Most clients can resume their daily activities immediately. Results are usually visible within a few days, with optimal effects after 2 to 3 months. Depending on the treatment type and individual skin characteristics, results last between 12 and 18 months.

Experience the difference

Hand rejuvenation is more than a cosmetic procedure—it’s an investment in balance, appearance, and self-confidence. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we view the hands as an extension of your overall look. Our specialists combine medical expertise with aesthetic insight to guide you toward a natural and refined result.

Men are placing increasing value on a well-groomed appearance and maintaining their natural, strong look. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we’re seeing a growing number of male clients who consciously choose subtle rejuvenation—not to look “different,” but to look better, fresher, and less tired, all while preserving their masculine features.

Many men are bothered by a tired appearance, frown lines that make them look angry, or volume loss that makes them look older than they feel. The gradual fading of a defined jawline or early signs of hair loss can also affect confidence, both personally and professionally. Fortunately, the barrier to doing something about it is becoming lower. Cosmetic treatments for men have become completely normal—and most importantly, effective—when done correctly.

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we specialize in male facial structures and take a subtle, personalized approach. Botox for men is commonly used to soften frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet. This results in a relaxed, refreshed appearance without sacrificing natural facial expressions. For men dealing with excessive sweating, Botox also offers a practical solution—for example, in the underarm area.

Fillers for men are applied differently than for women. While women often seek added volume, male treatments focus more on restoring strong facial contours and enhancing the jawline. Think of filling in hollow cheeks, correcting deep nasolabial folds, or improving facial symmetry. With hyaluronic acid fillers, we can enhance the face in a way that looks natural and complements the individual’s overall appearance.

Whether you’re looking to rejuvenate your face, improve your skin quality, or regain an energetic look, a cosmetic treatment at Kliniek Dokter Brandt is always personal, discreet, and tailored to your needs. We work with high-quality products and the latest techniques so that you can look your best—without it being obvious that anything was done.

Botox has been one of the most popular cosmetic treatments worldwide for years. Yet, there are still doubts and questions—especially about the safety of the procedure. So, is Botox dangerous? The short answer: no, Botox is not dangerous — as long as it is administered by an experienced medical professional and within the correct dosage.

In this blog post, we explain why Botox is a safe and effective choice, supported by scientific research and clinical experience.

What exactly is Botox?

Botox is the brand name for botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein that causes temporary muscle relaxation. In the medical field, it has been used since the 1980s to treat neurological conditions such as muscle spasms, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and chronic migraines.

In aesthetic medicine, Botox is used to soften dynamic wrinkles — such as frown lines and crow’s feet — in a natural and subtle way.

What do scientific studies say about Botox safety?

Numerous clinical studies have evaluated the safety of botulinum toxin. A few key points:

• According to a systematic review published in Dermatologic Surgery (2015), Botox is “safe and effective when used in accordance with guidelines.” Side effects are rare and typically mild and temporary, such as slight redness or swelling at the injection site.
• The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Botox for cosmetic use in 2002, confirming that it meets strict safety standards.
• A review in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology (2016) concluded that Botox has an “excellent safety profile” when used for aesthetic purposes, with minimal risks under proper medical supervision.

Common myths About Botox—Debunked

1. “Botox is a toxin.” While botulinum toxin is toxic in large, uncontrolled doses, aesthetic treatments involve very small, carefully regulated amounts. These dosages are medically approved and have been proven safe over decades of use.

2. “Botox freezes your face.”A frozen look is a thing of the past. Modern clinics, like Kliniek Dokter Brandt, focus on achieving natural-looking results. Our physicians ensure a soft, subtle effect that preserves your natural facial expressions.

3. “Botox is addictive.” Botox is not physically addictive. Many clients choose to repeat treatments because they are happy with the results, but there is no chemical dependency involved.

Who is qualified to administer Botox?

It’s essential that Botox is always administered by a licensed and medically trained physician with experience in aesthetic treatments. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, all procedures are performed by certified professionals who prioritize patient safety and natural outcomes.

Conclusion: Botox Is Safe — In the Right Hands

Botox is one of the most studied and safest cosmetic treatments in the world. Thanks to decades of scientific research and clinical application, we know that the risks are minimal when the procedure is performed by a skilled practitioner.

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we prioritize your safety, comfort, and a natural-looking result. Do you have questions or want to find out if Botox is right for you? Feel free to contact us or schedule a consultation.

Forehead wrinkles are among the most common expression lines and often appear at a young age. They are caused by repeated facial movements—frowning, raised eyebrows, concentration—and become deeper and more permanent over time. While they are natural, they can give the face a tired or stern appearance.

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we believe in a subtle, refined approach. Using botulinum toxin—commonly known as “Botox”—we relax the overactive muscles responsible for these lines. This not only smooths the forehead but also creates a fresher, more open look. For those seeking both muscle relaxation and skin improvement, we can combine the treatment with skin-tightening technologies such as Morpheus8, Profhilo, or polynucleotides to enhance skin texture and elasticity.

Our goal is never to erase facial expressions, but to restore harmony and softness—a natural result that reflects who you are.

Because true beauty isn’t about perfection—it’s about balance.

Double chin treatment: Elegant eolutions for a refined profile

A double chin—also known as submental fullness—is a common concern that can affect one’s overall appearance. Even at a healthy weight, this area may retain fat or show signs of sagging skin. Whether it’s due to genetics, aging, or weight loss, the good news is: treating a double chin can now be both effective and elegant.

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we combine medical expertise with the latest technologies to reduce or remove a double chin—without compromising the natural look of your face. Based on the underlying cause and your personal goals, we create a customized treatment plan.

Possible treatments:

• Chin liposuction (under local anesthesia) Targeted removal of stubborn fat to instantly improve facial contours – we combine this with QuantumRF

• QuantumRF An advanced radiofrequency treatment that breaks down fat cells and tightens the skin simultaneously.

• Morpheus8 for the chin area A cutting-edge technique that combines microneedling with radiofrequency to deeply firm the skin and combat sagging.

The result is a slimmer, more defined profile and a jawline that is once again clearly contoured. Most treatments are minimally invasive, require little downtime, and offer long-lasting results.

Reducing a double chin doesn’t have to mean undergoing drastic procedures. With precision, technology, and a refined aesthetic approach, we restore balance to your facial features.

SEFFIHAIR®: Your natural solution for hair restoration and skin rejuvenation

In an era where natural beauty and minimal invasiveness are paramount, SEFFIHAIR® offers an innovative approach to hair loss and skin aging. This advanced treatment uses your own body fat to revitalize hair follicles and restore the skin from within, without synthetic substances or invasive procedures.

What makes a stem cell treatment unique?

A stem cell treatment is based on the principle of autologous regenerative therapy. Stem cells and growth factors are extracted from your own fat tissue and used to repair damaged tissues and stimulate cell renewal. This process promotes natural hair growth and improves skin texture in a safe and effective way.

The treatment step by step

• Fat harvest: A small amount of fat tissue is harvested under local anesthesia, usually from the abdomen or flanks.

• Isolation of Stem Cells: The fat tissue is carefully processed to isolate stem cells and growth factors.

• Injection: The obtained stem cell-rich fluid is injected into the scalp or skin areas that require treatment. The entire procedure typically takes between 40 and 60 minutes and requires minimal recovery time.

Applications of Stem Cells

• Hair Restoration: Stimulates hair growth in thinning hair or early-stage baldness.

• Skin Rejuvenation: Improves skin texture, evens out scars, and repairs sun-damaged skin.

• Volume Restoration: Regenerates weakened or sunken skin areas.

Benefits of a Stem Cell Treatment

• 100% Natural: No chemical agents or foreign substances.

• Safe and Effective: Using your own cells minimizes risks.

• Long-Lasting Results: Thanks to the regenerative capabilities of stem cells.

• Suitable for Everyone: Effective for a wide range of hair and skin concerns in both men and women.

A stem cell treatment offers a natural and scientifically grounded solution for hair loss and skin aging. By using your own body’s cells, this treatment stimulates healing from within, delivering long-lasting and visible results. Consider a stem cell treatment if you are seeking a safe and effective way to revitalize your hair and skin.

Microneedling and Radiofrequency Energy: What makes Morpheus so special?

In the world of aesthetic treatments, Morpheus8 is renowned as an advanced method for skin rejuvenation and contour enhancement. This technique combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to firm and rejuvenate the skin.

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is a treatment that merges microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Fine needles penetrate the skin and deliver radiofrequency energy at targeted depths. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer and smoother skin.

How does the treatment work?

The procedure begins with the application of a numbing cream to minimize discomfort. Then, the microneedles of the Morpheus8 device are inserted into the skin, where they emit radiofrequency energy. This creates controlled micro-injuries that activate the skin’s natural healing process.

Areas of application for Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is highly versatile and can be used on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, and abdomen. It is effective for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, and treating scars.

What to expect after the treatment

Following the treatment, the skin may show some redness and swelling, which typically subsides within a few days. Most people are able to quickly resume their daily activities. Initial results are often visible within a few weeks, with further improvements appearing over the following months.

Conclusion

Morpheus8 offers an effective solution for skin rejuvenation and tightening without the need for surgery. By combining microneedling and radiofrequency energy, it stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, leading to healthier, younger-looking skin.

SEFFILLER: The power of stem cells for natural facial rejuvenation

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we combine medical expertise with the latest technologies in skin rejuvenation. One of the most innovative and natural methods we offer is the SEFFILLER stem cell treatment for the face. This treatment uses your body’s own stem cells to restore skin structure, replenish lost volume, and significantly improve skin quality — all in a completely natural way.

The SEFFILLER treatment is based on the principles of regenerative medicine. During the procedure, a small amount of fat tissue is gently harvested, usually from the abdomen or thighs. This fat is rich in stem cells capable of repairing skin tissue and stimulating collagen production. After a specialized purification process, the enriched fat is injected into strategic areas of the face, where it promotes volume restoration and deep skin renewal from within.

What makes SEFFILLER truly unique is that it doesn’t simply focus on filling wrinkles or folds. Instead, it aims for structural skin improvement. The stem cells activate the skin at a cellular level, resulting in a visibly fresher, fuller, and more youthful appearance. Results develop gradually, creating a natural look without obvious signs of cosmetic treatment.

An increasing number of people are choosing facial stem cell therapy because it is safe, sustainable, and biologically responsible. No synthetic substances are used, and the risk of allergic reactions is minimal, as the treatment uses your own body material. In addition, SEFFILLER offers a relatively short recovery time and long-lasting results.

The SEFFILLER treatment is especially suitable for both men and women who want to enhance their facial contours in a subtle and natural way, address signs of aging, or improve overall skin quality. It is particularly effective in treating volume loss, fine lines, skin laxity, and a dull complexion — all while preserving your natural facial expression and individuality.

Treating stretch marks: For smoother and more even skin

Stretch marks, also known as striae, are a common skin concern that occur when the skin stretches rapidly, such as during pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or puberty. Although stretch marks are medically harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we understand how important smooth, healthy-looking skin can be for self-confidence. That’s why we offer advanced and effective treatments to visibly reduce the appearance of stretch marks and improve overall skin texture, as outlined below.

One of the most powerful methods we use is Morpheus8, a combination of microneedling and radiofrequency that penetrates deep into the skin layers. This treatment stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, helping damaged tissue regenerate from within. Morpheus8 is particularly effective in improving skin texture and fading stretch marks, whether they are still red or have already turned white.

For deep cellular renewal with a more subtle approach, Sunekos is an excellent choice. This injectable treatment, based on hyaluronic acid and amino acids, helps the skin repair and rejuvenate itself. Sunekos improves elasticity around the affected areas and enhances the skin’s overall radiance, while gradually strengthening the tissue. This treatment can be combined in a series, for example, with Morpheus8 for even more noticeable results.

For stubborn or deeper stretch marks, the SEFFILLER stem cell treatment offers a particularly effective solution. This technique uses your body’s own fat-derived stem cells, which have regenerative properties and stimulate repair in damaged skin layers. As a result, not only are stretch marks visibly reduced, but the overall skin quality is also improved long-term. This treatment can also be combined with others for a comprehensive, multi-layer approach.

Microneedling with exosomes is another modern technique we successfully use in the treatment of stretch marks. Exosomes contain signaling molecules that enhance cell communication and accelerate regeneration processes. When combined with microneedling, these potent actives are delivered deep into the skin, stimulating healing and resulting in smoother, more even-toned skin.

Every skin is unique, which is why we create a personalized treatment plan at Kliniek Dokter Brandt, tailored to the type and severity of your stretch marks. By combining our medical expertise with cutting-edge technologies, we provide treatments that are not only results-driven, but also safe and naturally aligned with your body’s healing ability.

What really helps against cellulite? Can you truly get rid of it? We’re here to answer these common questions in this blog post

Cellulite, also known as orange peel skin, is a very common and completely natural condition that most often appears on the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. While it is not a medical issue, it can cause the skin to appear uneven and dimpled, which many people find bothersome or a source of insecurity. At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we focus on effective, safe, and scientifically supported treatments to visibly reduce the appearance of cellulite and noticeably improve skin texture.

One of the innovative treatments we offer is Sunekos, an injectable solution that combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to restore the skin from within. This treatment stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which not only improves overall skin quality but also enhances elasticity. Especially in the early stages of cellulite, Sunekos helps refine the skin’s appearance and promotes a smoother, more even texture—without adding unwanted volume.

If cellulite is accompanied by skin laxity or volume loss, Radiesse is a powerful solution. This biostimulatory filler, made from calcium hydroxyapatite, encourages the body to naturally produce new collagen. In the context of cellulite, it reinforces the skin’s structural support, leading to a firmer, smoother surface where irregularities become less visible. The skin regains volume and strength, which helps reduce the appearance of dimples and uneven areas.

For more stubborn forms of cellulite—particularly when associated with localized fat deposits or sagging skin—liposuction with QuantumRF offers a highly effective approach. This treatment combines fat removal with radiofrequency energy, targeting both excess fat and skin tightening in a single session. The result is a more contoured silhouette and visibly smoother skin, without the need for major incisions or extended recovery. QuantumRF allows us to address two core issues at once—fat accumulation and skin laxity—which makes it ideal for areas prone to cellulite.

When cellulite is caused by fibrotic connective tissue bands pulling the skin downward, subcision can offer significant improvement. This technique focuses on mechanically releasing the fibrous strands beneath the skin that create the typical dimpling effect. Once released, the skin can heal more evenly, resulting in a smoother surface. Subcision works at a deeper level and is often combined with other treatments like fillers or collagen-boosting therapies for enhanced results.

At Kliniek Dokter Brandt, we believe in personalized care. Cellulite is a complex, multifaceted condition that requires an individual approach. During a consultation, we create a tailored treatment plan based on your unique skin type, body structure, and aesthetic goals. With our advanced treatment options, we can not only reduce the visible signs of cellulite but also strengthen the underlying tissue for smoother, more resilient skin over the long term. Our goal is not perfection—but a skin you feel confident in showing.
