“ Over the years Dr. Rakus has kept me going - I don’t know what I would do without her! Part of her charisma is her cool, confident and quiet approach to every treatment I have had and, as a mark of the trust I place in her I am having a Thermage treatment today."

"I would like to highly recommend Dr Rakus’s Fraxel treatment. I have had a course of 6 sessions over the past 2 years and have found the results to be absolutely amazing. My skin texture is very smooth and soft plus the small fine lines around my eyes and mouth have almost disappeared. I would highly recommend this treatment!"

"I'm 44 now. My friends are always asking what I do to keep my skin such good shape and why I don't have any wrinkles. I tell them I've been going to Dr Rakus for 10 years. Even those who were formally against having anything done - ever - have now asked me for her number!"

“My treatment is the best investment any woman could make for herself and is better than a week in Spain”.

"My Thermage treatment has made my post-menopausal skin feel pre-menopausal again - plumper, tighter and glowing"

"I always return to Dr Rakus for my Botox treatment because I trust her immensely - she always does such an extraordinary
job! It's such a pleasure to be greeted so warmly by her exceptional
staff. They always remember my name which means a lot. I truly wouldn’t
put myself in the hand of anyone else.
Dr Rakus is
truly the best!"

As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with Juvéderm® ULTRA injectable gel, you don't have to just sit back and let it happen!
Juvéderm® ULTRA is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration.Juvéderm® ULTRAis indicated for injection into the mid to deep dermis for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).
Juvéderm® ULTRA gel
is injected under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and
smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, for example your “smile lines” (nasolabial
folds).
Juvéderm® ULTRAprovides a smooth, natural look and feel, so everyone will notice (but no one will know)! In fact, studies show superior results of Juvéderm® ULTRAcompared to a collagen-based dermal filler.
- Almost 90% of all study volunteers who were treated with both Juvéderm® ULTRA injectable gel and another dermal filler preferred Juvéderm® ULTRA!
- Juvéderm® ULTRA injectable gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective for persons of colour.

Benefits of Juvéderm® ULTRA Injectable Gel
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers like Juvéderm® ULTRA injectable gel offer a safe and effective nonsurgical option for smoothing facial wrinkles and folds. In fact, they are the fastest growing nonsurgical aesthetic procedure in the United States according to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. But all dermal fillers are not the same!
Choosing Juvéderm® ULTRA injectable gel makes a difference:

"After 38 years of mental abuse, I had finally found the courage to leave my marriage. My self-esteem was non existent. I read an article in Tatler magazine about Dr Rita Rakus and decided I would try Botox® and Restylane. The results have been super. I am now happy to face the world on my own, feeling confident and self assured. I have since had treatments to take away fat pouches from my chin. This has also been a great success. Thank you, Dr Rita Rakus".

"Just flown in from Moscow for Dr. Rita to work her magic with Botox before we get married next week. We are sure we will have perfect results as always. From Russia with Love!

"I knew I wanted to have some work done, but I wanted to know I was in good hands. I sought impartial advice and met with Wendy Lewis, the New York aesthetic consultant. She recommended Dr Rakus - she was right. I know I'm in safe hands and my treatments have been effective without side effects and have drawn many compliments".
Susan BP 15.12.05
“I personally found the Thermage treatment painless overall with some tenderness under the chin/neck area, however, nowhere near the ‘cigarette stubbing’ pain level I had read about.!"
