It was my first time visiting Lizzie, and I can not express how relaxed and reassuring Lizzie made me feel. I was a bit nervous getting my 1st procedure done, but the service I received was amazing and it definitely gave me the confidence to want to come back!

I am so glad I found this clinic after months of searching for a mole mapping service outside of London. It's a 45min drive from where I live but it was honestly worth it. My mole mapping was conducted by Odette who was just fantastic. She was professional and polite throughout the entire appointment and immediately put me at ease and made me feel safe and comfortable. I then had a follow up appointment with Dr Fatima who was wonderful. She is clearly a very experienced Consultant Dermatologist and was able to get through my vast set of moles in record time with her dermatoscope. I felt completely at ease and safe during my appointment and it was such a nice change from seeing a male dermatologist at the NHS hospital I went to. I will now be getting annual mole checks and with the mole mapping it just makes me feel comfortable knowing that any possible changes will be caught early. The clinic itself it's beautiful, very clean and sleek but also welcoming, as were the reception staff I also encountered during my two appointments. 10/10 highly recommend to anyone needing mole mapping/mole checks/skin lesions etc.

Amazing experience from beginning to end. Felt really comfortable and looked after. Dr Lamy was professional and gave me great advice about what treatments would be best for me. I have been to other injectors and I have to say Dr Lamy has been the best by far. Great, natural results. Would highly recommend!

I found the Chelmsford Skin Clinic via Google when I first moved to Chelmsford. It’s been 5 years and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my skin treatments or care. Chloe is amazing, so knowledgeable and fantastic at her job. She can recommend the exact skin products for your skin type, knows what she’s talking about and not to add she does amazing eyebrows. She knows exactly what my skin needs. I completely trusted her to look after me and my skin during my two pregnancies as well. I honestly couldn’t think of going anywhere else. Even if I moved away I’d make the trip back just to see Chloe. Chloe is also just a lovely, friendly, chatty person as is everyone at the clinic and it’s a relaxing, calm environment.
I cannot recommend Chloe and the Chelmsford Skin Clinic enough. 10/10.

My mum gets pilar cysts on her head and has done for years.  Once upon a time the GP would remove them, but now as it is considered cosmetic they won't do it.  Mum is disabled and has dementia.  We approached a local private hospital and had a consultation and they would have removed them but it was very expensive.  So we decided to have a consultation at Skin Sense and we already felt in much better hands.  We had our initial consultation with Dr Lanka and she was lovely with mum.  She examined her thoroughly and explained everything.  Mum had a cyst on the hairline on her forehead and a larger one at the top of her neck.  Dr Lanka was concerned about doing the one near the neck due to potential for increased blood supply and would need further investigation, but this hadn't been noted to us at the other place we went to.  Therefore as the one on her forehead was more visual and mum wasn't sure about having both done, she just had this one removed.  On the day both Dr Lanka's did the procedure and they were brilliant with mum, gave her all the time she needed and successfully removed the cyst.  The skin has healed perfectly and you can't see where the cyst was at all.  I would highly recommend them for their professionalism, kindness and skill.  In fact since we've been, my dad has been to get a skin tag removed and I'm also considering getting some skin tags removed too.  The price was competitive  and we received a first rate service

I can’t recommend Monica Berrangé and her team highly enough. I came to Monica feeling self-conscious about facial asymmetry, and she has worked absolute wonders. With her expert use of Botox, she has significantly improved the symmetry of my face, which has made a real difference to both my appearance and my confidence. The whole team are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the clinic itself is spotless, welcoming, and impressively high-tech. The entire experience has been professional, reassuring, and highly valued. I’m truly grateful for the care and results I’ve received.

The Cosmetic House is always so clean, calm and welcoming. I’ve been having my botox done with Enya for 18 months now, the fantastic treatment I’ve received has brought me back time and time again. It is obvious that the skill level at the clinic is through the roof, Enya is very honest and will tell you what you do or don’t need, even if this means losing out on money herself! I have also had my lips filled by Enya and by Frankee, and I’m completely obsessed with them!!
I would highly, highly recommend the Cosmetic House for any of your injectable needs!

Had my Botox done for the first time at Springfield Aesthetics this morning. The salon itself has its own private entrance and is very smartly kitted out. Jennifer took the time to talk me through options and find out exactly what I wanted, she then advised me as to the best service for me personally, even taking into account that I am going on a long haul flight next week. The process itself was painless. After care was thorough and she arranged a follow up appointment with me there and then. Excellent service beginning to end, I’ll be back to get my lips done after my hols! X

Claire is amazing, she always takes the time to go over everything with me and make sure I'm completely comfortable. My appointment for jaw slimming was absolutely life changing. I've had headaches daily for years because of grinding my teeth and they've completely gone. I never knew how much tension I was holding in my jaw until it was gone! I would 100% recommend for anyone who grinds their teeth as it's made such a difference to my quality of life.

FAQs

Anti wrinkle injections are cosmetic treatments that use a purified form of botulinum toxin to relax specific facial muscles. This reduces movement in areas like the forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet, helping to smooth existing lines and prevent wrinkles from becoming deeper.

In Chelmsford, the price of Anti-Wrinkle Injections typically ranges from around £175 to £475, although individual clinics may charge more or less. Costs depend on how many areas you treat, the number of units required, the practitioner's experience and the clinic's treatment plan. When checking how much Anti-Wrinkle Injections costs in Chelmsford bear in mind location can affect pricing and whether follow-up or maintenance sessions are included. If you are comparing the price of Anti-Wrinkle Injections in Chelmsford look for practitioner qualifications and what is included in the consultation or aftercare. You can find the exact, up-to-date price for this treatment in the catalogue

Results from anti wrinkle injections usually start to appear within 3–7 days, with full effect at around 2 weeks. On average, the results last about 3–4 months, although this varies from person to person and between treatment areas.

“Anti wrinkle injections” is a general term for treatments using botulinum toxin type A. Botox® is one well-known brand of this medicine, so people often use the terms interchangeably. However, there are several other brands that can also be used for anti-wrinkle treatments.

Anti wrinkle injections temporarily block the nerve signals that make certain facial muscles contract. When these muscles relax, the overlying skin looks smoother and lines such as frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet become less visible, giving a fresher, more rested appearance.
