WORTH IT
My name is John de Kock.
I am officially still an Executive Lounge Host at the Hilton The Hague. But I have not worked after I was diagnosed with numerous diseases. My fat percentage is practically zero due to the required intake of medication.
I was referred to Drs. Tom van Eijk who works at the Esthetisch Centrum Jan Van Goyen in Amsterdam, which is part of the Medical Centre Jan van Goyen.
Drs. Tom van Eijk studied at the University of Nijmegen, the University of Amsterdam and the Academic Medical Centre.
I received several Sculptra treatments over a period of 6 months and the impact it had was more than skin deep.
It actually gave me back my “joie de vivre”.
So at 53 years, 1.76 m and 51 kg I looked like a malnourished person.
With clothes I could cover up my skinny body, but I could not cover the lines in my face.
So every day I was told by either family, friends, neighbors, colleagues or even people I met on the street, 'that I was so skinny and that I should eat more.' Without even asking me why I got so skinny or how I was doing.
It got up to a point that I did not want to leave my house, any more then necessary and I made all kind of excuses when I was invited for social events.
So I made an appointment with a plastic surgeon, who than referred me to Drs. Tom van Eijk.
Though the pictures speak for themselves, they are evidence that
he is a real miracle worker and the Michelangelo of this century.
I can not praise and thank Drs. Tom van Eijk enough for what he has done for me and the natural way he has done it.

You look AMAZING WITH YOUR NEW RESULTS!!! You are correct that doctor is an artist and I am so very happy for you that you are excited w your procedure

Thank you for your positive comment and compliment. Something that I had not mentioned is that I did not have to tell the doctor what I wanted or what was bothering me the most. He looked at my face, made his observations and then gave my the treatment. I totally agree with you that the natural result is amazing.

God this is amazing. Congratulations!!!
I had my buccal fat removed two years ago and I was so depressed thinking it was no solution to my sunken cheeks and you gave me so much hope because your initial situation was more difficult. How long it will last, what the doctor told you?

Thank you very much. I'm still so happy with the result. It's been a few months after the last procedure. And initially after a few days it reduced, but then the callogeen started to build up and my skin is getting firmer. Which is great because I am 53. In general it can last a year up to 2 years.

Oh John, you look awesome! Thank you for sharing your story. I hope your health is better! To get you where you need to be, please look up master herbalist Patrick Delves ( he has been doing it for 30 years) from Granada and a Dr. John Bergman (chiropractor by day and a teacher to us at night, both of these men are soooo passionate at what they do). There are tons of YouTube videos on how to fix your health AND KEEP IT THERE. They both say 97% of the diseases we get can be reversed and cured. I had never been exposed to the homeopath of life til a year and a half ago. I had horrible headaches and migraines all my life and they were getting worse as the years went by til I had them 24/7. A Natural Grocer type place said you need trace minerals cause USA dirt has no more nutrients in it any more. I now get maybe 3 headaches in a year so that opened my eyes to natural path. Got the dreaded news of getting kidney disease stage 3, all gone now, am 200% normal! Working on my cataracts now! Biggest thing I learned is by time we are 50, our bodies have lost at least half of our digestive enzymes to get the nutrients we need so you must take a replacement 3 times a day and more if you have to take a lot of pills/vitamins. Get your insides looking as good as you look on the outside! May you live to be at least 100 years old! Allyson

Dear Allyson,
Thank you for your comment. And my sincere apology for my late reply.
It is good to read about your situation and even better that you found a way to deal with it. You are absolutly right that things change when you reached 50. Before working at the Hilton I was a professional dancer. So taking care of my inside is something that I have always done. For me personally it starts with sleep or rest, than fresh food every day all day and the required medication. All in all I'm doing quite well. And as long as I can do something for someone else every day. I'm a happy camper. God Bless.

It a few months after the last treatment. And though the 'swelling' reduces after a few days. My skin is getting firmer and tigher.

Thank you again.
