F
rom the rustle of anticipation before
she walks up the aisle to what she wears
when taking to the dancefloor, the
bride is without doubt the focal point of a wed-
ding. Your wedding is the moment you truly
want to shine incandescently, but looking ef-
fortlessly beautiful takes scrupulous planning.
In pursuit of a clear complexion and a svelte
silhouette, take your lead from the savviest
brides-to-be, who know to kickstart an advance-
planned regime with the absolute expert:
London’s Lip Queen herself, Dr Rita Rakus.
With more than 25 years of experience as a
game-changer in the world of aesthetics and
anti-ageing treatments, Dr Rakus (who has
just been named a global ambassador for BTL
Aesthetics for EMsculpt) and her team will
have you prepped and pert in no time.
A BRIDE AND HER GROOMING
Six months before your wedding, Dr Rakus may
advise you to see the body-contouring specialist
Dr Galyna Selezneva. With the clinic’s amazing
armoury of machines, she can freeze away areas
of stubborn fat using the latest cryolipolisis
technology on your abdomen, flanks, bra-roll
and thighs. Even the backs of arms and under-
chin area can be improved with the new Cool-
Advantage petite applicator – this 45-minute
session destroys fat cells, which are eliminated
from the body three to six months after treatment.
Dr Rakus may also advise a course of BTL
EMsculpt body-shaping and fat-reduction
treatment to restore your core, sculpt abs and
give your bottom the shape you desire, with no
surgery or downtime. The EMsculpt devices use
electro-magnetic technology to stimulate deep
layers of muscle – a 30-minute treatment is the
equivalent of 20,000 crunches or squats. The
clinic also uses the BTL Unison machine to break
down cellulite, often in combination with Exilis,
which tightens the skin to tremendous effect.
For the ultimate face cleanse, Dr Rakus rec-
ommends monthly doses of her signature non-
invasive and intensely moisturising HydraFacial.
This first-class treatment uses clarifying serums,
exfoliation and gentle dermabrasion to infuse
the skin with a soft dewiness. Finishing touches
come with a discreet use of fillers for total reju-
venation – and, of course, for the perfect pout.

For a trusted and transformative pre-wedding
beauty blitz, Dr Rita Rakus’ clinic is the go-to
aesthetics sanctuary for complete face and
body rejuvenation (and mother comes, too)
