Dr Raquel Skin & Medical Cosmetics Reviews

Write a Review

This is the first time i have considered a facial treatment as I have very sensitive skin and was concerned i may have an allergic reaction to the products. Dr Raquel was very understanding, explained the polynucleotide injection procedure and provided medical evidence to help put my mind at rest. I have since undergone 3 sessions of PN's on my face, neck and decolletage and the results have been amazing. Many thanks to Dr Raquel for her professionalism and wealth of experience and knowledge in the aesthetics industry. I would highly recommend a visit !... (Show more)

"For almost two years, I have been in the care of Dr Raquel and I am amazed at the transformative results. I was struggling with confidence and unhappy with my appearance due to the challenges of the menopause. When meeting Dr. Raquel, it became apparent she was a very special lady—an extraordinary professional with unparalleled knowledge and expertise in all facets of aesthetics. From the onset of my consultation, I felt comfortable, as if I had known her a lifetime. I can truly say that each treatment session is a relaxing experience. Personally, I find satisfaction in the meticulous and efficient administration of these procedures by Dr. Raquel, whose approach is that of a complete perfectionist. She epitomizes the pinnacle of aesthetics excellence, and I trust her implicitly. I am so grateful for what Dr. Raquel has done for me, and it goes without saying—I wholeheartedly recommend her."...

A friend recommended Dr Raquel to me and she has been nothing short of fantastic. You always feel very well taken care of at her clinic and she deals with you sensitively and professionally. Her knowledge and technique are second-to-none — she excels in producing a natural look, basically allowing you to look like the best version of yourself. I wouldn't go anywhere else.... (Show more)

I am in my early thirties and began getting Botox around a year ago with Dr Raquel, having been recommended to her by a friend. Feeling very aged after having my first child, I wanted to reclaim some confidence. There are countless people offering Botox at a low price, but I wanted a professional. I cannot recommend Dr Raquel more highly. She is a field expert, and a pioneer in understanding the experiences of women both socially and physiologically throughout the different stages of life. She works proactively in the scientific community, speaking at conferences and continually reviewing her practises and products. The implications of her knowledge and experience are that she provides a flawless service. Her office is calm, clean, and welcoming. She uses numbing gel and micro needles, so you barely feel injections. She insists on a consultation prior to accepting new clients, which ensures you will have a clear understanding of how your body ages and will continue to age, and what can be done to combat this. All of her information is backed by current studies. Don’t expect cheap with Dr Raquel, but she is worth every penny. This is a woman who knows her trade, and delivers exactly what she promises....

Thank you so much Alison for your review of my clinic in west malling. It means a lot. Thank you

Response from the ownera year ago

Dr. Raquel has been amazing. I had my first treatment done 2 weeks ago (forehead, 11s and crows feet) and I'm so pleasantly surprised how natural I look. The consultation was very thorough which helped me knowingly choose the right treatment and skincare for my skin condition and type. I'm also very happy that I invested in the AlumierMD products and adjusted my daily routine. The number of comments I received so far has boosted my own confidence. I finally like again what I see in the mirror, and I'm not afraid to have my photos taken anymore.... (Show more)

I recently (feb 23’) had a skin treatment with Maja (microneedling and chemical peel) and I am delighted with the results. I will be re-booking to make part of my skin care routine and I highly recommend. Thanks Maja. Raquel is both professional and friendly. She takes time to understand what you want and need to achieve, and advises the best ways to get there. She has helped me immensely with old acne scars and pregnancy pigmentation on my face, and I am really pleased with the ongoing results. Thank you Raquel!... (Show more)

I have been to quite a few different practices for filler and botox, and I honestly wish I had found Dr Raquel on my first try, she is fantastic! Her knowledge of skincare is incredible and she was thorough in explaining and expanding my knowledge of my own skin and what my routine needs. When performing treatments Dr Raquel is careful to make it as painless and comfortable as possible, she really put me at ease. Most importantly I left looking and feeling fantastic. I would recommend Dr Raquel to anyone and everyone, you will not be disappointed!... (Show more)

Review I had always been a bit anxious about having any facial treatments, not knowing what to expect and not wanting to look like I had work done. However, I took the plunge aged 51 and after doing my research, including reading the reviews, I had a consultation with Dr Raquel. Her professional and personal approach immediately put me at ease and she took time to listen to what I wanted and answered all of my questions, explaining the whole process and treatment in detail. I had work on my tear troughs, which had been bothering me for ages. The results are great and look very natural. It’s the extra care that Dr Raquel takes before, during and after treatment, and the great results, that has given me confidence to book another treatment. I would whole heartedly recommend Dr Raquel Amado to anyone... (Show more)

Been visiting Dr Raquel for around 18 months. From the very first appointment, she puts you at ease and talks you through your options. No pressure to have anything done that you are not happy with. Thoroughly recommend her, I would not go anywhere else as I feel safe in her hands.

Dr Raquel was born in Portugal, where she graduated as a dental surgeon in 2007. She undertook training for six years, studying human physiology, pathology, biology and specifically the head and neck. Soon after, Dr Raquel moved to England, working for the NHS as a General Dentist. Over the years, she did a post-graduate in Dental Sedation and Pain Management at the UCL Eastman Dental Institute in London, a year certificate in Cosmetic and Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry, as well as other accreditations. It was at this point Dr Raquel developed a real passion for medical aesthetics. She completed several training courses on facial aesthetics with such prestigious institutions as Derma Medical, and Face and Harley Academy, before founding her own aesthetics clinic in Kings Hill. At Harley Academy, Dr Raquel also found a home as a Lead Senior Clinical Mentor for the UK’s largest postgraduate training provider in aesthetic medicine, guiding other medical professionals through the UK’s first fully-regulated Level 7 qualification for injectables. She is an Affiliated Member of the Aesthetics Complication Expert Group (ACE) of practitioners and CMAC, which aims to improve patient safety in facial aesthetics. As Dr Raquel has been clinically trained to use anaesthetics safely, she is highly skilled with needles and injection techniques. Throughout her career, Dr Raquel has understood that most people are looking for a reliable, honest relationship with their practitioner, which is why she takes the time to understand how her patients feel. Dr Raquel is known for her friendly and caring manner, being discreet, and for putting her patients at ease. She is committed to the provision of safe, high-quality patient care in order to achieve the best outcomes for patients, and making them feel confident in their own skin.
