MAKING YOU, MORE YOU
A Mummy Makeover is a combination of cosmetic procedures to rejuvenate your body and restore your pre-pregnancy appearance.
TREATMENT OVERVIEW
A Mummy Makeover is a combination of cosmetic procedures to rejuvenate your body and restore your pre-pregnancy appearance.
Pregnancy changes your body. The incredible process of creating, carrying and delivering a baby takes its toll on your tummy and your breasts, often leaving them loose, drooping, and deflated.
Bella Vou offers a bespoke package of cosmetic surgery procedures and non-surgical treatments designed to improve the appearance of your post-pregnancy body. Most mothers don’t have the luxury of extended periods for rest and recovery after surgery. Treatment plans are designed to help you get back to family life and normal activities as quickly as possible.
As a mother, you sacrifice a lot for your children. You give your time to ensure that they have the love and attention that they need. You spend money to provide for their wellbeing. You celebrate their successes, and you are their support in their failures.
It doesn't end there, however. Many mothers also sacrifice the youthfulness of their bodies after pregnancy. Over time, they may gain weight, develop sagging skin, or lose fullness and firmness in their breasts.
A Mummy Makeover is a series of procedures, many of which can be conducted during the same surgical session, to restore youthfulness and vitality to your body.
Please book a complimentary consultation to discuss your exact requirements with our cosmetic surgeons, but typically prices start as shown below

YOUR SIMPLE
5 STEP
JOURNEY
YOUR SIMPLE 5 STEP JOURNEY
Step 1. Free, no-obligation consultation
Bella Vou offers every client a free consultation with an expert, accredited cosmetic surgeon with no obligation to proceed to treatment. The consultation is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you have with your body, the results you want to achieve, and how the specialists at Bella Vou can help you reach those goals.
Bella Vou will always give you an honest and impartial professional opinion. Mr Amir Nakhdjevani says:
‘We make sure that we advise people correctly about whether surgery is right for them. We treat everyone as if they were our family. We might turn people away, suggest alternative treatments, or we may suggest that they go to a different specialist at another establishment. If someone is uncertain about an operation, we're happy to see them several times, without a consultation charge. At Bella Vou, we never pressurise people or try to sell procedures. It's always about giving an honest opinion and honest advice.’
Step 2. Meet your surgeon
You will be offered a further appointment to meet your consultant before proceeding to surgery. This will give you a chance to find out more about the procedures, your recovery, and to ask any questions you may have. Your surgeon will talk you through the operations and take time to address all your concerns.
Step 3. Preparation for Mummy Makeover surgery
The staff at Bella Vou will advise you on any pre-operative preparations to reduce your risk of infection and help your recovery.
You may be asked to stop taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication, which can increase the risk of bleeding. It’s important to stop smoking cigarettes and e-cigarettes, which can impede the healing process. You should continue to shower daily, as usual. You will be advised about the time to start fasting in preparation for your general anaesthetic.
On the day of your surgery, you’ll be welcomed to Bella Vou, given a gown to wear and escorted to the state-of-the-art operating theatre.
Step 4. What happens during Mummy Makeover surgery?
A Mummy Makeover is performed under general anaesthetic. The specific surgery will depend on the procedures you are undergoing.
Tummy Tuck or abdominoplasty: A tummy tuck is an operation to tighten and reshape the abdominal area. The specialist surgeons remove any excess skin and fat and tighten the underlying muscles to create a flatter, smoother, and more toned tummy.
Breast augmentation: The surgeon will make curved incisions under the breasts and place implants either behind or in front of the muscles of the chest wall. They act to lift the breasts, increase their size and restore firmness and symmetry.
VASER™ Liposculpture: Vaser is an advanced procedure to remove areas of fat and sculpt the body. Excess fat is liquified and sucked out to reshape and contour the body.
BodyTite uses radiofrequency to melt fat into liquid form, so that it can be aspirated from the body. The heat also simultaneously tightens the skin to eradicate lumps and bumps.
Renuvion skin tightening can be performed at the same time as VASERlipo™. The surgeon inserts a Renuvion probe under the skin. The device uses plasma energy to tighten loose skin to create a toned, smooth appearance.
Step 5. Recovery from a Mummy Makeover
Your post-operative recovery will depend on the procedures you have had. You will need to stay in hospital for one or two nights, to monitor your recovery and maintain your comfort. It's important to be collected by a friend or family member who can escort you home and support you as you recuperate.
You will be given pain-relief and a supportive pressure garment to reduce pain, bleeding, and swelling from your tummy tuck.
In general, you should be up and walking the day after surgery. By the end of the first week, you should be able to walk around the house. It will take two to three weeks before you are comfortable enough to drive a car or return to work. From four to six weeks, you can reintroduce exercise, gradually increasing activity as you regain fitness, strength, and confidence. Full recovery from a Mummy Makeover procedure is about six weeks.
You should wear the pressure garments day and night during your recovery. These support the scar, reduce swelling and bruising, and help you stay comfortable.
The staff at Bella Vou will carefully monitor your recovery. After one week, the nurse and wound care specialist will check your scar. At around six weeks, your surgeon will check your progress, and at six months, the nurse and wound care specialist will see you again to ensure that you remain healthy, well, and happy with your results. If you have any questions or concerns, the staff are on hand to offer support and guidance every step of the way.

I am really pleased with my lip lift. People are unsure what has changed but keep saying how well I look. In fact there is a marked difference when you see the reduction in my philtrum. I actually have teeth. The whole experience was straightforward and I was looked after well. Amir is the person I would recommend to anyone for this procedure.
