What to expect from a consultation
Consultations at Camderma for anti-wrinkle injections take 20-40 minutes depending on how many areas you wish to be treated. Our consultations are free of charge. We see patients at a number of sites around Cambridgeshire and also can arrange home visits (This will incur a £20 fee). Please email for appointment availability. People often have ideas of areas that they would like treatment but we can also analyse your face holistically and advise on the best way to achieve your aims. The botulinum is injected into carefully selected facial muscles with very fine needles so that it is virtually painless.
