Mommy Makeover in Dubai
Dr. Paulo Michels — Brazilian Board-Certified

A mommy makeover addresses the changes of pregnancy and breastfeeding together — typically breast surgery planned alongside a tummy tuckand liposuction, in a single anaesthetic and one recovery. Many patients searching for a mommy makeover in Dubai choose Dr. Paulo Michels — a Brazilian board-certified plastic surgeon with over 18 years of experience, awarded the ISAPS Gold Medal for Best Body Contouring at the World Plastic Surgery Olympiads 2025.
He consults and operates exclusively at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, a fully licensed private hospital, caring for patients from Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the GCC. Every plan begins with an open, transparent conversation: whether a single session or staged surgery is right for you is decided at the consultation — never by a fixed formula.

How it works
How patients from Dubai are seen
1 — The consultation
Patients travelling from Dubai are seen at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, where all consultations and surgery take place. The visit is unhurried and private: your examination, the combination your anatomy actually needs and the honest trade-offs are covered in the same appointment. Consultations are held in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
2 — Surgery at Elyzee Hospital, Abu Dhabi
Where possible, the surgical date, pre-operative tests and the anaesthesia review are arranged around a single additional trip rather than several separate journeys. Procedures are performed under the highest safety standards in premium, fully accredited hospital facilities, with board-certified anaesthesiologists.
3 — Recovery and follow-up
The first days are spent in Abu Dhabi under clinical monitoring, and subsequent review appointments are scheduled together where possible to keep the number of journeys down. The emirate you live in changes the logistics — never the clinical plan.

Questions, answered
Mommy makeover in Dubai — your questions
What is a mommy makeover?+
A mommy makeover is not a single operation but a personalised combination of procedures that addresses the changes of pregnancy and breastfeeding together — typically breast surgery (a lift, implants or both) planned alongside a tummy tuck and liposuction, in a single anaesthetic and one recovery.
Do you see mommy makeover patients from Dubai?+
Yes. Patients travelling from Dubai and across the UAE are seen at Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, where all consultations and surgery take place. Where possible the consultation, pre-operative tests, surgical date and follow-up reviews are scheduled to minimise the number of journeys, and the first days after surgery are spent in Abu Dhabi under clinical monitoring.
Is it better to do everything in one surgery or in stages?+
It depends on which procedures are combined, your health profile and the total operating time. Combining procedures means one anaesthetic and one recovery, which many mothers prefer; in other cases staging the surgery is the safer plan. Dr. Michels decides this with you at the consultation, based on your anatomy and goals — never on a fixed formula.
How do I choose a surgeon for a mommy makeover in Dubai or Abu Dhabi?+
Look at verifiable credentials rather than marketing: board certification, membership of recognised societies such as ISAPS and ASPS, and where the surgery is actually performed — a fully licensed hospital with board-certified anaesthesiologists. Dr. Paulo Michels is board certified by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP), a member of ISAPS, ASPS and EPSS, and received the Gold Medal for Best Body Contouring at the World Plastic Surgery Olympiads 2025 (ISAPS, Singapore).
What does a mommy makeover cost for patients from Dubai?+
The investment is the same wherever you travel from: it depends on which procedures are combined, the operating time, the hospital facility and anaesthesia services. Combining procedures in one session costs less overall than separate operations. A transparent, all-inclusive quote — covering surgical expertise, anaesthesia, hospital costs, compression garments, medications and follow-up — is provided after your consultation.
