“The BOTOX® looks fantastic – it has really made a difference. I was talking to my husband last night about City Bonuses being down so much next year and what we could cut down on. As I said to him “we can do without the trip to Mauritius next year, but the BOTOX® will be the last thing to go!!”

Before treatment I will always spend time discussing with you the desired effect. Sometimes you might need both treatments described below, Restylane Touch™ and BOTOX® to achieve the effect you are looking for.
Restylane Touch is intended for the correction of thin, superficial facial lines, e.g. around the eyes.
The injected crystal-clear NASHA gel gives natural volume under the wrinkle, which is lifted up and smoothed out. A treatment takes a few minutes and the results can be seen immediately.
Restylane Touch is long lasting but not permanent. You always have a choice to continue or change the combination of treatments - and the procedure can be repeated as often as you like.
Most patients choose to have a follow-up treatment 6 to 12 months after an initial treatment of wrinkles. A follow-up treatment is normally needed after about 6 months.
A touch-up treatment within 2-4 weeks after the initial treatment may be necessary to achieve an optimal correction.
Clinical experience indicates that follow-up treatment normally require a smaller amount of the product.

The BOTOX® treament usually take effect after 3-5 days; however it may take 2 weeks for maximum effect. At this point you have a review appointment by Dr Rita.
The effect lasts between 3 to 6 months (average 4 months).
Patients who have had several injections often find the
effect persists longer.
BOTOX® for wrinkle therapy is an effective treatment for crows feet. Side effects are uncommon and minimal.
Please refer to the relevant pages for BOTOX® after care advice and recovery time indications.

"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".
