AVAILABLE FROM 17TH APRIL I’m so pleased! After much reading and writing, discussions over how it should be presented, photo shoots and yet again adjusting and re-arranging everything again, it has now been printed. Nothing more to alter. And it has turned out really well! [...]
Dr. Erik Laban and I have just spent the day in the media park in Hilversum for the recording of RTL Consult. Erik is not only one of the best Plastic Surgeons that I know but also a great colleague! As the first episode of RTL Consult will be broadcast this afternoon, I have asked [...]
On TV! Yesterday, in her new programme “van den Elsen wacht op antwoord”, my namesake Jetske van Elsen went in search of the truth behind the anti-wrinkle cream. She also paid me a visit to ask a few questions. Those who just can’t flick through to the end of their gripping books need to stop reading for a moment [...]
In the AD In an article in the AD (Dutch magazine) yesterday, “iedere huid kan stralen”(all skin can glow), I gave some tips on how to get your skin into top condition in 2012.

Once I start talking about wrinkles, cellulite, acne or exotic ingredients such as snail slime there is no stopping me…:-) You always have to wait [...]
“Jogging can be bad for your skin” There is nothing better after a hectic day than running off all the stress in the fresh air. And my day is set up when, early in the morning while the dew is still on the grass I have been for an equally satisfying “meditative” run . At least [...]
Last week my children and I went to the new Smurf film. Some quality time with the family without thinking about work, so I thought. Until I saw that the main character was played by a Cruella type; this time without dalmations but with her own cosmetics line. “Hey mum, that’s like you” was the [...]
When I began with my blog two years ago, I didn’t realise that so many people would read it. It’s great!
