Jenny's Story
Location: Essex
Treatment(s): Abdominoplasty & Breast Augmentation
“I felt fully confident in Amir's ability to give me the fantastic results which I have now. It's been a great experience and Bella Vou have changed my life!”
Jenny, 37, from Essex, came to us having lost 9 stone of weight, leaving her with severe excess skin. In September 2020, she had Abdominoplasty (Fleur De Lis) with Bi-Lateral Breast Augmentation surgery. Here she talks us through her experience.
After losing a lot of weight, I had lots of excess skin, which meant I still didn’t feel confident in myself. I had to wear a long T-shirt to cover my belly, and jeans were particularly hard to buy. I also have severe polycystic ovaries, which meant that my boobs never fully formed, and they got even smaller when I lost the weight and I felt out of proportion.
I had visited two other clinics but didn’t feel 100 percent confident with either of them. I didn’t get a good feeling from them, and they wouldn’t do the two surgeries at once, which was important to me because, as a mum to two children, I wanted the recovery to be all in one go.
Then my sister saw a programme with Mr Amir Nakhdjevani doing a live tummy tuck. After watching the programme myself and seeing the results and how happy people were afterwards, I found out where Amir worked and got in touch.
After having a FaceTime call (due to lockdown) in which Amir and his colleague talked me through things so clearly, I booked to see them in person when we were allowed. I visited the clinic and met him in person, and I just knew this was the one. I wasn’t rushed, I was made to feel welcome, I was shown around and everything was explained to me really well.
I was very nervous on the day, but the staff were so lovely, especially Scott. He looked after me really well for the two nights I was in post-surgery and made me feel so at ease and comfortable. The whole team genuinely cares about you, they’re so reassuring and comforting, and it feels more like a family than a hospital.
I had a few problems afterwards with my scars healing, but nothing has ever been too much for the team. At one stage they were seeing me every week after my surgery, but not once was I made to feel bad or like I was a pain! Everyone has been so friendly and kept in contact with me.
I saw the results straight away, and the pain wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I was a bit uncomfortable and you have to be careful how you sleep, but I didn’t need to take loads of painkillers, which I had expected to!
My friend couldn’t believe how quickly I’d healed. She’d had a boob job at one of the two clinics that I visited first, and she had really bad bruising following the surgery - she couldn’t believe how little bruising I had.
This surgery has made me feel me again. After losing the weight and having so much excess skin I still felt self-conscious, but now I feel a million dollars, and better than I’ve ever felt before. It’s nice to wear jeans and a top and feel comfortable, and not to have to lug that extra skin and weight around with me. I can go into Lakeside and shop in any shop I like, not just the three or so that I could go in before. I love not having to hide my belly or my skin, but it’s taking some getting used to as I keep pulling my top down, forgetting I don’t need to. Nearly a year on, I still have to remind myself that I can wear certain things! It takes time to adjust and process things.
Now I want more surgery - I want my arms and my legs done - and I would definitely come back to Bella Vou. I also have friends who have now had surgery with Amir after seeing how well it all went for me and how well I was looked after.
I’m so happy with my experience with Bella Vou and would highly recommend them to anyone considering having any work done.

I have had a top class experience with Amir for my medial thigh lift surgery and I cannot recommend him and the whole Bella Vou team highly enough. Amir is extremely knowledgeable & skilled, realistic about the results to expect, professional but super friendly and puts you very quickly at ease. The aftercare is second to none and I’m looking forward to showing off the final results of my surgery! The clinic itself is beautiful and relaxing and you really feel at home. Special thanks also to Stacie, my patient co-ordinator and to Ann and Nikki, but all of the staff are just wonderful and friendly too. The level of customer service delivered by the Bella Vou team from start to finish really is 5 star. I would highly recommend!

The best Tummy tuck doctor! I am beyond pleased with my transformation. Thank you for your incredible skill and care Bella Vou and Dr Amir Nakhdjevani.

I just had an amazing experience at Bella Vou – it’s a 5-star clinic located in the charming area of the Pantiles in Tunbridge Wells. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with warm and friendly smiles from the receptionists who couldn’t do enough for me. The clinic itself is beautifully decorated with elegant touches, and it exudes sophistication. I was there to see surgeon Amir Nakhdjevani, whom I discovered on TikTok. I knew I wanted him to do my mummy makeover, as I had read so many wonderful reviews about him. He has an incredible amount of expertise and experience in the world of plastic surgery, and his attention to detail is truly remarkable – he’s a genius! I’m absolutely over the moon with my results. I’ve been “Bella Voued” – I’m so happy that I actually have tears in my eyes! I can’t thank him enough, and I’m definitely going back for the mini concept face lift that he devised himself – I can’t wait! I’d like to give a special thanks to the receptionist staff, all the nurses who took care of me day and night, the anesthesiologist, and my companion during this journey. Thank you all for taking such great care of me – I appreciate it more than words can say!

Dr Sadr was very reassuring and the whole procedure went well. I felt comfortable from the first meeting, through the operation and with all the excellent aftercare. I would definitely choose Amir and Bella Vou again if I wanted any other procedure.

I had an upper blepharoplasty with Amir as my eyelid skin was affecting my vision and make my eyes look very heavy. The procedure from consultation to post surgery was fantastic. The surgery was completely painless. Amir talked me through every step and I had confidence that I was in great hands. The procedure was over in 30 minutes and I was ready to go home. 2 weeks later, my eyes look amazing and you would never know I’d had anything done as the scars are well hidden and hard to find. Well done Amir and Bella Vou, you are a great team and look after your clients

I couldn’t recommend Amir Sadr enough! He made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. And I can’t thank him enough for making me feel confident and happy with the way I look and feel! Before my surgery, I had many questions (as anyone would) and he answered every single one with detail and explained the process very carefully so I could understand it all. The whole Bella Vou team are so kind, and very fast with any questions I asked during my recovery process at home. Thank you so much Amir Sadr and Bella Vou Team!

Always highly professional and strongly recommended. I’ve consistently been thrilled with the results of my treatments and would readily recommend it. I appreciate how the outcomes are understated yet rejuvenating, giving me a ‘fresh’ appearance.

after pregnancy I had a lot of loose skin and separated muscles and didn’t feel comfortable anymore so after looking at many surgeons I found Amir and was amazed at his work with Mummy makeovers and after lots of different research I took the plunge and booked a consultation I was very nervous about having surgery as I haven’t had anything done before, then from the first consultation I knew he was the one I had to book with. Amir Made me feel so comfortable listened to all my concerns and answered all questions and was very open and honest with what my results would be. The whole team are lovely and you feel part of the family straight away. On the day Of my surgery Amir came in to me and put me at ease and he is a genius when I woke up I couldn’t believe this was now my new body… I’m 3 months post op now and healed really well I still cant believe I have the body I have and the confidence I have now got and that is all down to Amir , Thank you so so much everyone at Bella Vou!

I highly recommend Hagen as a surgeon, from start to finish I was completely looked after and all my questions were answered. Hagen was very professional, friendly and responsive to all my questions in the appointments, emails or phone calls. There was no pressure it was all at my pace and when I was ready. He was fantastic at accommodating appointments to be virtually when possible (as I am not local to the clinic) This surgery has changed my life I feel much more confident in myself. So a massive thank you to Hagen and the team at Bella Vou.

B.V is one of the best place to have your surgery. I had the best care ever. Doctor Amir N is the best, very pleasant and understanding. Not to mention the lovely Julia, she is the best. Nothing is not too difficult for Julia to sort out. All the doctors and nurses are so lovely. Gabrielle jade. Jason, Paddy, Ann, Renauta. The photographer lady,.I can’t remember all the names but everyone is so lovely and welcoming. The environment is so relaxing. There is always someone at the end of the phone to listen to your worries and incase of emergency they are ready to pick you at your home. What a lovely service. Its the best decision I have made.
Thanks BV.

In November 2023 I booked a full abdominoplasty and vaser lipo with Amir. I visited for my initial consult and knew straight away that i had found the right surgeon, Amir was compassionate, knowledgeable and extremely professional. Fast forward to the 18th of January and my surgery day, Amir was understanding of how nerve wracking surgery can be and i felt at ease from the moment I walked into the building. I was in theatre a lot longer than planned due to an umbilical hernia and extra muscle repair, Amir is a perfectionist and made sure all was well and to his high standards before finishing the surgery. I’ve had a minor umbilical complication which is unfortunately one of the risks associated with this procedure. But the aftercare I have received from Amir and his team has been second to none and I could not be happier with my results. I look forward to my umbilical correction in a few months. I really cannot thank Amir enough and would recommend him to anyone looking for a cosmetic surgeon.

Dr Sadr is an incredibly approachable doctor. His attention to detail is excellent and he explained everything very clearly. He listens to any concerns and wants the absolute best result for his patients. The clinic is absolutely beautiful and it felt like a hotel stay rather than a hospital! The nurses and staff were so friendly and helpful. It really does seem like they all enjoy working there and the atmosphere is very positive. The road to recovery is long with a tummy tuck but I have recovered very well and have benefitted from regular check ups and assurance the whole way. I am really happy with my results. I can wear clothes I couldn’t before, and for the first time in 15 years I might just wear a bikini this summer! Would I go back to Bella Vou? Yes definitely. I would recommend to anyone.

Amir has been friendly and professional since my first consultation. He has a great way of managing expectations and a wonderful confidence that really kept me calm throughout the process. The clinic has the highest standards of cleanliness, it is a beautiful clinic, It’s always a pleasure to visit! The spa like feel, makes me feel so welcome and relaxed. All staff at Bella Vou are very welcoming, friendly and professional. I am happy with my results so far and so pleased with my recover, I am back to work 2 weeks after and able to do most things as normal. Thank you!

Amir Nakhdjevani and The Bella Vou team – I think that all superlatives have already been used in the reviews I have seen and they are well deserved. It has been 6 months since I decided that as gift to my 60 year old self and after careful research I would undergo a cosmetic procedure with Amir and the BellaVou Clinic- namely an Extended Concept Lower Face and Neck lift… Amir N is an exceptionally gifted and caring surgeon who carefully listened to me.He was transparent, honest & direct in advising me as to what I needed to achieve the outcome I desired… My request was to look refreshed, less tired, without obvious signs of surgery, but still recognisable as me, to my partner and unsuspecting friends.That is exactly what was achieved. Amusingly I have noted professionals in other settings doing a double take when now seeing my year of birth… Every member of the team go above and beyond…Thank you all… I would not hesitate to recommend this organisation and its team of gifted surgeons and support staff for any cosmetic procedure you would wish to undertake, safe in the knowledge that you will receive excellent results with caring and attentive support throughout your journey and beyond.

I was nervous going into it because I’d never had any experience with surgeries or cosmetic procedures but everyone was so lovely and the experience was very calm and easy. The procedure was so painless and the surgeon and assistants were chatty and made me feel comfortable and let me know what was happening. I was in and out in a few hours. The aftercare was simple and the healing process has been exactly as they had told me. I’m very happy with my result and would definitely recommend.

Had my long awaited procedure on Saturday 23rd March at Bella Vou. The clinic is modern & very luxurious and the team are welcoming & warm. I’d like to give a special thanks to the amazing Consultant Plastic Surgeon Amir Nakhdjevani for his open & honest advice, experience and skills to achieve what I was looking for, to Anaesthesiologist Ravi, who made me laugh ( & I wasn’t sick as promised) to the beautiful nurse Gabriella, who is just so lovely & caring and last but not least the wonderful Bella Vou chauffeur Joe who picked me up at 5:30am and took me home 10 hours later ( 150 miles in all! ) Joe was professional thoughtful and kind. Thank-you also for the unexpected gift bag from The White Company, full of luxury goodies to enjoy ! I couldn’t recommend Bella Vou highly enough & would recommend to all if you are looking for a cosmetic procedure carried out by a friendly experienced team in a beautiful clinic – you won’t find better ! Hope to see you all again next week for my check up x

I booked in with Mark for an aesthetic assessment. During the consultation, we discussed my concerns and possible treatments. I booked in a few weeks after, for the treatment. I am very happy with my experience. Mark is very knowledgeable and explained each step, which helped me feel at ease. I would be very comfortable recommending Mark to others! Thanks again

Amir is an amazing surgeon. He walked me through my breast augmentation step by step, making sure I understood all the risks and what my potential outcome could look like. The main thing that stood out for me is that Amir wouldn’t do anything that wouldn’t suit my body, so was very thorough with managing my expectations as when I said I wanted to go bigger he said it would all depend what he found during surgery as to what would fit best. And I couldn’t be happier! I’m only 3 weeks post op. And my breasts look absolutely wonderful if I say so myself!! I know they won’t fully settle for sometime yet but already I’m totally thrilled. Thank you Amir and all the team at Bella Vou.
