I decided to visit Dr Rakus following a fair few recomendations I'd had. I am a strong believer in word of mouth, and the friends who raved about her know me so well that I felt very confident about seeing Dr Rakus for some lip treatment... And I was not dissapointed! From the moment I stepped into her beautiful clinic in Knightsbridge, I was treated like royalty!! Her team are so warm, and incredibly well-informed too... I felt really comfortable with Dr Rakus, she has a gentle manner and certainly knows her stuff - no wonder they call her The London Lip Queen! I am delighted with my enhanced pout - it's defined enough to make a difference, but subtle enough that my friends can't quite put their finger on what has contributed to my sexy new look. I really want to try some of the other services at the clinic - they are very state-of-the art, I discovered a couple of treatments I didn't even know existed!! A BIG thumbs up to Dr Rakus and her fantastic team...! read more

I've been to Dr Rakus five times over the past two years. Dr Rakus is lovely and very professional. I chose her because she has been recommended by many of the top magazines and newspapers (Vogue, Elle, etc...) and she has a great reputation. Her costs are probably towards the higher end but this reflects the standard of her work. Each time I've Dr Rakus, I've been 100% happy with the result, My frown lines disappeared immediately but I wasn't left with 'frozen face' - Dr Rakus's speciality is baby botox so it looks completely natural. I have always found Dr Rakus and her staff very lovely and caring (I was incredibly nervous on my first visit and Dr Rakus and the nurse spent over 45 mins reassuring me). I would have recommended Dr Rakus to friends and family who are also delighted with her work. read more

Over the years I have had several treatments at Dr Rakus's clinic in London and have always been delighted with the results. Having recently lost a lot of weight I decided to try a treatment called Thermage which basically tightens up loose skin, I had the treatment to my stomach and face and was amazed at the results! Having done one side of my face they showed me what it looked like, it truly was fantastic, the whole left side of my face was lifted! The skin on my stomach was much firmer and had lost that 'dimpled' effect. I would have no hesitation in recommending this treatment to anyone. All of the staff I met at the clilnic were most accomodating - nothing was too much trouble, they even fetched my lunch for me from Harrods. Personally I can't wait to go back for further treatments!!! read more

Having spent many years searching the UK and Canada for the best cosmetic doctor for my face, and being bitterly disappointed by most because they either over did fillers or had a "one map fits all faces" approach - only making me look worse and feeling that I had made yet another costly mistake. I finally found Dr Rakus and have been a regular patient of hers for the last 5 years. I can say, hand on heart that Dr Rakus is a true artist, I happily describe her as my facial sculptor. She has never "over done" my fillers, preferring to be more on the conservative side at first and build from there to achieve a great result. Every penny that I have spent with Dr Rakus has been well spent and I recommend her to everyone who is looking to enhance and refresh their appearance. Maxine H read more

I have been going to Dr Rakus for years. Its always a pleasure to be in her clinic, as Dr Rakus is very professional and friendly and takes time to find out exactly what i want to achieve. Her staff are always very welcoming too and can't do enough to help me. I know i'm not alone in thinking this as all my friends have been going to her for years too. The treatments on offer are bang up to date and i always feel completely safe in her hands. I f you want the best advice and treatment i would 100% recommend her. I usually have fillers and botox but I have recently had a course of Pellevie at the clinic and i'm thrilled with the results ! It has taken years off me. I had tried many other doctors previously, but now would never go anywhere else. Suzie Cooke. read more

I went to the Dr Rakus clinic for a HydraFacialOMG, it was AMAZING!! Literally like sending my skin to the gym. The treatment is like mild dermabrasion, at the same time feeding moisture into the skin. I don't usually have facials as i don't normally see a big enough difference in my complexion but this was incredible!! There was no need to wear make-up after, and friends actually noticed i'd had a facial without being told my skin looked so fresh The clinic is beautiful, and the staff are really warm and friendly. I felt so comfortable and welcome. My facialist was clearly a total expert and she talked me through the steps of my treatment as we went along. read more

As a first-time patient I must say how impressive I found the whole experience. The team are all so personable, knowledgeable and expert. I felt in safe hands throughout my visit. My Visia imaging to start was eye-opening and gave me a really clear and detailed insight and understanding of what my skin needs and how best to treat it - thank you! Pelleve was actually an amazingly comfortable and relaxing treatment and I experienced an immediate benefit; tightening and a smoother look. It was wonderful that they took such care and consideration to provide such a great result now I have tried it, I will never go anywhere else for this treatment!! read more

Categories: Dermatologists, Laser Hair Removal Area: Chelsea 21/9/2011 I have been seeing Dr Rakus since 1996 and would never go anywhere else for my facial treatments. She knows my face, contours and what needs to be done. I consult her as the professional and get the best results through her expertise. As a person she has always been warm, friendly and puts me at ease. Her products are up to the minute so pain is a thing of the past. I recommend her and her team to everyone. I look better now than I did over 15 years ago! Edit Remove read more

I have just returned from Dr Rita's after receiving skin and lip rejuvenation post-lockdown. The safety procedures are really well thought out and as always I received an immaculate service. I am very much looking forward to coming back soon and full heartedly recommend Dr Rita and her amazing team to all considering subtle beauty enhancements. For me, Dr Rita's clinic (nestled just opposite Harrods) is the best in London -- I love the world class treatments on offer, they are tailored for bespoke results and delivered with true professionalism. read more

I've been seeing Rita for years. She's brilliant - I trust her completely because I always leave her clinic looking like a better version of ME. She makes my lips look like they used to look - not like puffed up fake lips like you see on so many women. Many of my friends go to Rita - yes its expensive but you can always spot the women who haven't been to see her. Their botox looks obvious and their lips look fake. People always tell me how well I look but nobody guesses its because I've had a treatment with Rita read more

I've been going to Dr Rakus for about 2 years now. Everyone at the clinic is really friendly and welcoming. Dr Rakus is a genius, i'm so pleased with everything she has suggested. The first few times i had botox and then had fillers. I have just had a course of pellevie and i'm over the moon. I've never looked better and the results are completely natural. Pellevie has taken years off me and my skin is glowing. I had previously tried other doctors, but in my opinion Dr Rakus is the best. read more

I felt my skin was beginning to look tired and a bit gaunt. As I had already been going to the clinic for years and benefitting from the fantastic Refirme treatments offered by their top therapist, Malvina Fraser and felt I needed a bit more help, I decided to go to Dr Rakus for Juvederm filler treatment. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and the treatment has taken years off my face. I am really thrilled with the results. read more

I have been seeing dr Rakus for many years and would not go anywhere else. I am certain of getting there the latest, cutting edge and at the same time the safest treatment available that is taylored to my needs. What is more, the effect is always subtle and doesn't scream I've had something done. The compliments I get about looking young for my age reassure me that it is money well spent. read more

Dr Rakus is the best in the business. There's a reason why everyone goes to her and she's always quoted in the press. Her service is second to none. I'm SO happy with the result of my treatments. I got a great tailor-made package recommended including Pelleve, Ultherapy, some Botox and fillers and the result is amazing!!! They know what they're doing at the clinic. You're in good hands! read more

The most honest and natural service I have ever had! Thank you so much for not letting me go too far with my lip fillers as I get super addicted. They look so natural and defined and I adore them, Rita was super delicate with me and also faster than I'd though! Super caring and I will come back for other procedures for sure :) Thanks so much Lana read more

I have been having fillers and botox for many years and in the last few i have been visiting Dr Rakus' clinic- it is by far the best service i have received and would thoroughly recommend her to any prospective new client! You defiantly get what you pay for and i found the service wonderful, Dr Rakus and her staff were all very welcoming! read more

Very nervous about having something done to my face and had to sit for about 45 minutes with numbing cream on my face which didn't help to allay my fears, but actual treatment was really quick and the results are stunning. read more
