Here is some insight into Jean's answer, showing what that final problem means. Suppose you transform the problem to finding a vector $(y,t) \in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ to solve:
\begin{align*}
&\mbox{Max: } & tf(y/t) \\
&\mbox{Subject to: } & tg(y/t) \leq 1 \\
& & y/t \in S \\
& & t>0 \\
& & y \in \mathbb{R}^n
\end{align*}
where $S$ is a convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, the functions $f(\cdot)$ and $g(\cdot)$ are defined over $S$, and $f$ is concave while $g$ is convex. To show this is a convex optimization problem, it suffices to show:
i) The constraints $y/t \in S$, $y \in \mathbb{R}^n$, $t >0$ together specify a convex set.
ii) The function $tf(y/t)$ is concave in the joint variables $(y,t)$.
iii) The function $tg(y/t)$ is convex in $(y,t)$.
To this end, define $A$ as the set of all $(y,t)$ such that $t>0, y \in \mathbb{R}^n, y/t \in S$.
Claim 1: The set $A$ is a convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$.
Proof: Let $(y_1,t_1)$ and $(y_2,t_2)$ be elements if $A$. Let $\theta \in [0,1]$ and define $\overline{\theta} = 1-\theta$. We want to show that
$$ (\theta y_1 + \overline{\theta}y_2, \theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2) \in A$$
Since $t_1>0$ and $t_2>0$, it follows that $\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2>0$. It remains to check the ratio condition:
$$ \frac{\theta y_1 + \overline{\theta} y_2}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2} = \left(\frac{\theta t_1}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2}\right)(y_1/t_1) + \left(\frac{\overline{\theta} t_2}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2}\right)(y_2/t_2) \in S$$
since $S$ is convex and $y_1/t_1 \in S$, $y_2/t_2 \in S$, and this is just a convex combination of $y_1/t_1$ and $y_2/t_2$. $\Box$.
Claim 2: The function $tf(y/t)$ is concave over $(y,t) \in A$.
Proof: Fix $(y_1, t_1)$ and $(y_2, t_2)$ in $A$. Fix $\theta \in [0,1]$ and define $\overline{\theta} = 1-\theta$. Then:
\begin{align}
\theta t_1f(y_1/t_1) + \overline{\theta}t_2f(y_2/t_2) &= \left(\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2\right)\left(\frac{\theta t_1f(y_1/t_1) + \overline{\theta}t_2f(y_2/t_2)}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2}\right) \\
&\leq \left(\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2\right)f\left( \frac{\theta t_1 (y_1/t_1) + \overline{\theta}t_2 (y_2/t_2)}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2}\right)\\
&= \left(\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2\right)f\left( \frac{\theta y_1 + \overline{\theta}y_2}{\theta t_1 + \overline{\theta}t_2} \right)
\end{align}
where the inequality holds because the function $f()$ is concave. $\Box$
That the function $tg(y/t)$ is convex over $(y,t) \in A$ follows by a proof similar to that of Claim 2.
