A friend of mine got Profilho done by her eyelash extension technician, and her face was black and blue with bruises for a week afterwards. So I was very wary of the treatment – but it turned out I didn’t need to be. I had two sessions of Profhilo and neither left so much as a red mark, let alone a bruise. What I’ve learned is that it all comes down to the skill of the person administering the injections; it takes a really specialist technique to prevent bruising, and the staff at Dr Rakus’ clinic are serious experts. I am thrilled with the results.
I was very nervous before the lip treatment, but on arrival the staff were amazing and made me feel very comfortable.Dr Rakus was great and made me feel totally relaxed.The treatment was quick and I felt no pain at all. The clinic is beautiful and the waiting room very comfortable. Yes I do recommend this clinic and will see the Dr Rakus in a few weeks time.
Lovely clinic and staff and I was very happy with my treatment and results.Will be my clinic of choice now.
I have been using Dr Rakus for a couple of years and am extremely happy. The staff are all very helpful and friendly and Dr Rakus has the most up to date treatments which always surpass my expectations. I recently had a course of pellevie which has taken years off me, I'm over the moon. I feel completely safe with Dr. Rakus and look forward to visiting the clinic. All my friends feel the same.
I never used to think about enlarged pores, or even really know what they were – until I turned 50, when my own pores overnight got noticeably bigger – to the point where they became practically the only feature of my face I could see. It was awful. Trying to cover them up with foundation only accentuated them, so make- up couldn’t make me look better; quite the opposite, it made my skin look even worse. I tried using toners and moisturisers that promised to reduce my pores, but they made no difference at all. So thank the lord – and Dr Rakus - for Advatx. I underwent three monthly sessions, which were completely painless, and by the end of these my pores had shrunk so much that I’ve gone back to never even noticing them.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review - ADVATx laser is a fantastic treatment for enlarged pores and it is lovely to hear you are so pleased with the results.
I don’t like to think how much time and money I’ve wasted on expensive face creams containing hyaluronic acid. Even the very best of them didn’t come close to achieving the miracle results I’ve got from Profhilo. Nothing I rub on my skin can compete with Profilho! It has filled out all my fine lines and made my skin look plump and dewy. It is worth every penny.
thermage I have been going to Dr Rakus for 10 years. Many of my friends have been seeing Dr Rakus as well. Her consultations and treatments are excellent. Thermage, Pelleve, and Hydra facial treatments take years off from your face.I have been very happy .
Omur, thank you for your review - we're so pleased to hear your positive comments as such a loyal client! Looking forward to seeing you again soon.
I had this treatment to reduce the vertical ‘bar code’ lines above my mouth. Three sessions have more or less gotten rid of the lines completely – and my mouth now looks the same age as the rest of my skin. Which is amazing! But what I wasn’t expecting is for the treatment to massively improve not just those lines above my mouth, but my whole face. My skin is smoother and fresher, and the whole process was completely painless.
Thank you for your review - we are delighted that you are so pleased with your treatment results and experience at the clinic.
[Treatment name removed] and fillers I have been using Dr Rakus clinic for a number of years now and I have been delighted with the standard of treatment and care. I trust her completely.
Thank you, Jane, that's very kind of you to say and we're always delighted to have you at the clinic. Hope to see you again soon.
I have been having problems with my skin. After a consultation with Dr Rakus, she recommended that I try Dr Levy products. They have been amazing as my skin was very dehydrated. The products not only made my skin look less dehydrated but a lot of the inflammation and redness has gone. I am thrilled as my skin keeps getting better! I will be back.
