BELLA VOU Q & A

YOUR COSMETIC PROCEDURE QUESTIONS ANSWERED BY MR AMIR NAKHDJEVANI OF BELLA VOU , TUNBRIDGE WELLS
This month , three clients of the Bella Vou cosmetic surgery clinic in Tunbridge Wells share the fantastic results of their surgical procedures in their own words .
DEBBIE , 50 , CONCEPT FACELIFT
“ I work in the beauty industry and so I always try to look my best . However , as I approached my 50th birthday , I noticed that sagging skin around my jowls and neckline were making me look old and tired . I was in the process of planning my wedding and , as an older bride , I was desperate for a procedure that would give me a fresh new look but without a long recovery .
“ I saw Amir on a BBC documentary which showed him performing his pioneering Concept Facelift on a client . The procedure was exactly what I had been looking for ; it was carried out under local anaesthetic and promised rapid healing , minimal bruising or downtime , very little scarring and natural looking results .
“ After my consultation , I took some time to consider my options before deciding to go ahead with the Concept Facelift . My time in theatre seemed to fly by ! The local anaesthetic injections were a little tender , but the rest was a breeze . My results are truly amazing ; I love my profile , my jowls and neckline have been smoothed out and I now have a beautifully contoured face . I am very excited and happy that I will be feeling confident when walking down the aisle and having gorgeous snaps to remember my special day !”
GABRIELLA , 53 , EYE LIFT
“ I have always had very heavy upper eyelids ; however , over the last three years gravity has really taken its toll . My eyelids were drooping onto my eyelashes , which made it impossible for me to wear mascara or eye shadow . I looked so much older than I felt and I was mortified to be mistaken for my son ’ s grandmother when picking him up from school !
“ When I met Amir , I instantly clicked with him , I knew he was a surgeon I could put my trust in . As Amir had pioneered procedures , I knew he would work his magic in theatre , especially as he showed me many before and after pictures of past patients , which completely put my mind at ease .
“ My experience in surgery was exactly how I had hoped it would be . I was awake during the procedure , but the easy conversation and having a friendly hand to hold totally distracted me from any discomfort . Amir suggested removing 2cm of skin from each eyelid ( which is A LOT )! I looked in the mirror and even though I had stitches and slightly puffy eyes , I could instantly see my results . I could hardly contain my happiness , my eyes look dazzling and beautiful and it ' s all thanks to Amir and his amazing team !”
JANE , 46 , TUMMY TUCK SURGERY
“ I chose to have a tummy tuck because I was extremely self conscious about the way my tummy looked . After three pregnancies , my muscles were slack and no amount of dieting or exercise would give me back my pre-baby belly . It affected the way I dressed , and the way I felt about myself . I didn ' t feel healthy or comfortable in my own skin .
“ Having done some research into tummy tuck procedures , I decided to book a consultation appointment at Bella Vou because the online reviews were really positive and people spoke very highly of the work Amir undertakes .
“ Amir took the time to explain all the potential complications and he reassured me that any scars would be hidden by my clothes and would fade away over time . The surgery was carried out under general anaesthetic , and when I woke up I was so excited to see what my new body looked like !
“ The results are absolutely fantastic , I didn ' t realise how young I ' d look ! My stomach is tight and flat again , the way it was before I had my babies . It ' s been a massive change for me ; it ' s a fantastic feeling to be able to wear whatever I want , rather than having to put things back on the hanger because they don ' t suit me .”
