Bella Vou - Royal Tunbridge Wells

What can I say?! Having worked as a midwife in the NHS for 30 years I can honestly say that Rado is up there with the best!

I had the full works: a 360 circumferential abdominoplasty, abdominal hernia repair, four areas of liposuction and a breast uplift – and somehow, I still came out smiling (and very snatched!).

From start to finish, Rado, my surgeon, was a complete superstar; honest, approachable, kind, and always up for answering my many (many!) questions without making me feel silly – a rare combination of warmth and professionalism.

He’s not one of those surgeons who gives you the hard sell or disappears once the surgery is done. He genuinely cares about his patients (yes, really cares – not just the polite kind). You can tell he wants the absolute best outcomes, and his surgical skills are absolutely top-tier. I trusted him with my body, and he gave me back confidence, comfort, and a waist I hadn’t seen in years!

If you’re considering surgery and want someone who’s not just brilliant with a scalpel but also a lovely human being – look no further. You’ll be in the best (and very steady) hands.

After having multiple facial surgeries (brow lift, cheek lift, and neck lift) with Hagen Schumacher at Bella Vou, and being very happy with the results, I decided to go ahead with a rhinoplasty. Of all the procedures I’d had, this was the one I was most concerned about, as the nose is such a central part of the face. I didn’t want a trendy or unnatural look, just my own nose, slightly reworked to suit the rest of my features. I discussed this with Hagen and showed him a few reference photos of how I hoped it could look. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. I’m currently eight weeks post-op, and although there is still some swelling, the shape is already exactly what I wanted. My nose still looks like mine, just more balanced and refined. My neck lift was also exceptional, and my jaw and chin area are significantly improved. Hagen’s qualifications speak for themselves, but what makes his work stand out is his eye for detail and proportion. He always takes a conservative approach, and absolutely nothing on my face looks overdone or unnatural. He also guarantees his work and addresses any concerns or revisions without question. This, in my view, is incredibly important, as results aren’t always exactly as hoped the first time, and despite best efforts, revisions are sometimes necessary. I also want to thank the wider team at Bella Vou. Julia Ramos, my patient coordinator, has been excellent throughout. Any questions or issues were handled straight away. I developed a mild skin infection and sent photos to Hagen, who immediately issued a prescription. Julia then arranged for it to be sent to my local pharmacy. Hagen and Julia work seamlessly together. The rest of the staff are also fantastic, from reception to theatre staff, and also the wonderful Nikki, who carries out the post-op MLD. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hagen or Bella Vou. Hagen’s work is outstanding, and the experience at Bella Vou has been second to none. My sincerest thanks to you all.

I have been seeing mark for Botox injections for a while now , he has always listened to exactly what I would like and given other suggestions if he feels it appropriate, he is very honest about what can and Connor be achieved

From the beginning to the end of the journey it has been personal, informative and professional. I would not hesitate to go through the entire experience again and I thoroughly recommend! The Bella Vou team really do make you feel special.

I have been a Patient of Bella Vou for several years now and would never go anywhere else. I have been a Patient of Mark Holmes for much of that time and, in my opinion, he is the Best Non-Surgical Aesthetic Doctor that I have been to.
On this occasion I was unsure of what I needed to make me look ‘fresher’ and had a FaceTime call with him a few weeks ago. He made 4 recommendations including lip/above lip fillers which I was very nervous about, as I wanted a completely natural look. I had the treatment 6 days ago and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had minimal bruising and swelling so was able to confidently return to work 2 days later and the results have more than met my expectations.
The service from Bella Vou is exceptional and I have always had the very best care each time I have visited. I cannot recommend them highly enough and Mark is amazing!

I cannot get over what a brilliant Doctor Mark Holmes is.

I discovered him after I attended Bella Vue for a facelift which did not require a general anesthetic, and was so impressed by this that I decided to have all subsequent procedures performed at Bella Vue.

Dr Holmes is infinitely superior to any of the previous non-surgical doctors whom I have attended in the past. I live in central London, and have received treatment from more than one well known cosmetic doctor, all of whom charged rip-off prices for unsatisfactory results.

I would never use anyone other than Dr. Holmes, and am very happy to travel into Tunbridge Wells from London whenever I need treatment.

I had such a positive experience with Rado. From the initial consultation right through to surgery. He was very detailed with what to expect from the surgery, what the outcome would be and how the surgery would be performed. I felt so confident about my decision to have surgery there is no way I would consider going anywhere else. I would recommend in a heartbeat.

From my very first consultation with Dr. Rado, I knew I was in the best hands. I had been considering a breast lift with implants for many years, but it wasn’t until I met Dr. Rado and Julia that I felt truly confident and excited about moving forward. I am a mother of mixed heritage with Keloid prone skin so it was important to me that my surgeon was knowledgeable about dark skin tones, which he absolutely was! I knew after that consultation that I HAD to get it done at Bella Vou!

The surgery and recovery went smoother than I ever imagined! The rooms are stunning and everyone there from the nurses to the HCAs were so lovely! Dr. Rado and Julia were always available to answer my questions, and I felt supported every step of the way.

I am 6months post op and I am so happy I could cry. Absolutely stunning. My breasts look natural, youthful, and beautifully proportioned — exactly what I hoped for and more. I honestly didn't believe these results would be possible.

Thank you so much to everyone would has been part of my journey there! It's been life changing. x

I'm 2 weeks post op from a mummy makeover (tummy tuck, breast reduction) and am feeling amazing.
I'm 62 and had excess skin from 4 stone weight loss and honesty I haven't seen any 'before' pictures on any site with as much work to do as mine.
I'm pain free - in fact I was off painkillers within a week - f ully mobile but playing by the rules as I don't want to mess up Rado's amazing workmanship..
I will give an update in a few weeks after my 6 week check but for now I can say I am very happy.

Dr Rado & Team was absolutely amazing, I was made to feel so comfortable from start to finnish. I feel so incredibly good, I felt so self conscious and now I enjoy my body. I'm so grateful. I absolutely am in love with my results
