I always get my Botox done at Essex Sanctuary, and I will never go anywhere else! The place itself is absolutely beautiful - clean, calming, and welcoming from the moment you walk in. Sarita is incredibly professional and trustworthy - She truly knows what she’s doing! She makes me feel completely comfortable, always answers all my questions, and her warm, lovely personality makes the whole appointment enjoyable. I am always so happy with my results so I highly recommend!
Dr Sharma is very knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease from consultation to treatment. My initial consultation was very thorough and informative and helped me to decide what treatments I wanted. Can’t recommend Dr Sharma enough.
Serita is extremely professional an asset to the industry! I was very nervous having Botox and Lip filler Serita helps you achieve the look you want and is confident with advising you what you need to do to achieve the results you want!
I was instantly welcomed and felt very comfortable and safe. I 100% recommend the Essex Sanctuary, Sarita was so so lovely and I couldn’t recommend her enough.
After increasing migranes GP recommended botox, having seen the clinic locally i met with Sarita and talked through my concerns on her recommendation we treated two areas the reduction of pain in my jaw and the positive impact that this has had in reducing thr frequency and severity of migraines has been amazing.
Can’t recommend the lovely Sarita enough. She is very professional and such a lovely person. I have had great results with my treatment and she has helped my self confidence massively.
Sarita has helped me in my journey to becoming a beautiful bride we started the journey early and with her wisdom and guidance she has made me look the best version of me I can be! Thank you so much any future brides or anyone who wants to improve their natural beauty she is the Lady!
Sarita was recommended to me by a friend. She instantly put me at ease when I visited her to discuss treatment options. Sarita is very friendly and welcoming and her knowledge and professionalism is obvious as soon as you meet her. I was very nervous about trying Azzalure toxin for the first time and Sarita was very understanding of my nerves and took her time to reassure me and go through everything so I felt comfortable. I felt in very safe hands with Sarita and I truly cannot recommend her enough.
Sarita is a kind, empathic, young lady
I feel as though the years have rolled back, and I feel like me again, rather than a droopy impression of me
After feeling very down in the dumps with my skin being saggy and having a lot of lines and wrinkles on my face neck and chest I contacted Sarita for some advise after having 3 treatments of micro needling I feel so much better and look so much better Sarita was kind and caring throughout all my treatments putting me at ease each time if I felt a little anxious I would highly recommend Sarita to anyone she has given me my confidence back and il be forever grateful for that 😘
Great service always provided. Would highly recommend
Always a pleasure and a professional service with so much kindness and care! Sarita has guided me, supported me with information and truly wants the best results. I have felt calm and confident under her expert interventions and am truly enjoying the results … thank you Sarita ❤️
Sarita is very professional and skilled at what she does! She is also a lovely person who always advises you correctly based on your skin concerns. Would recommend to anyone X
Sarita takes her time with me and gives her honest opinion of what treatment is needed or even not needed. She will bent over backwards to try and fit me in for an appointment, which can be challenging with my working hours. She is also very friendly and makes one feel very relaxed.
Surita is excellent and knows her stuff about skincare.
After my previous clinic closed, I was searching for someone knowledgable with good reviews. My experience here was great and I would highly this clinic for anyone who is looking into it.
From my first visit to my most recent, Sarita has always put me at ease. She thoroughly explains the different options and listens to my endless concerns. I have never felt pressured to have something I am not sure about, which is very important to me. Sarita has always been happy to accommodate my need of a slow approach when I am not sure of a new treatment. She is a lovely person with a lot of experience and knowledge which she is always happy to share.
I couldn’t recommend her highly enough, especially if you are a bit nervous as I was at the beginning.

After visiting Dr Sharma for treatment over the past year I have always left feeling extremely happy with the care and results.
Saritha has always been very friendly and professional. Knowing of her experience and that she is continually updating her knowledge by attending various courses and conferences makes me feel confident that I am receiving the best up to date treatment.
From the first consultation and each appointment afterwards saritha has always given me plenty of time, thoroughly assessing and listening to my concerns, she has also been very prompt replying to messages out of working hours.
I would highly recommend the Essex sanctuary and would never go anywhere else.
Dr Sharma was very professional and friendly. I had no personal or issues with Dr Sharma who put me at ease as this was my first facial. I would definitely return to see Dr Sharma.
I have been going to Sarita for over a year and she is the most patient and wonderful person!
I worked with her in the lead up to my wedding to get my skin in top condition which she did and helped me build my confidence.

I cannot recommend her enough for anything to do with skin care
This was my first experience of facial aesthetics so I wanted to find a professional who would be mindful of that , who would be honest and would only recommend what was appropriate.
Dr Sarita put me completely at ease with her professional but kindly manner. She gave an honest opinion as to what could be achieved and completely allayed any fears and apprehension I had beforehand.
During treatment, Dr Sarita always told me what she was doing ,explained everything fully and what would be achieved, she took her time and went at my pace, which I really appreciated.
I am more than pleased with the results, indeed one of the treatments has also improved my breathing- which in turn has improved my sleep !
I was recommended Dr Sarita and Essex Sanctuary by an existing client and couldn’t be happier with the treatment I have received so far.

I was understandably nervous on my first visit but Dr Sarita put me at ease at every step of my treatment. The whole process was explained in easy terms. I understood what to expect and an expected time frame for the treatment to be effective.

Dr Sarita gives a personal service and has contacted to check my progress since my last visit on the 12th August.

Looking forward to more treatments with Essex Sanctuary
Dr Sarita is kind, warm and professional. I felt that she understood the results I wanted and she knew how to carry this out exactly. She is very accommodating and personable. She also made good treatment suggestions.
The clinic is clean and easy to find. Would recommend!
Sarita is amazing and excellent at what she does. On your first visit for consultation she would spend a lot of time to listen to your concerns and provide honest advice and recommendations of the treatment that would be most beneficial for you. She is very trustworthy, friendly, a true professional with excellent customer service skills. She will make you feel very comfortable and safe. I’ve benefitted from the treatment I’ve received and would highly recommend Essex Sanctuary if you’re looking for the best treatment which you would benefit from.
Dr.Sarita has been an
absolute pleasure. Her professionalism and depth of knowledge are truly commendable.
She consistently delivers excellent results and goes above and beyond to ensure client satisfaction. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch expertise!!!
I’ve had my 2nd visit to Sarita now. I can honestly say what a friendly experience it has been from start to finish. From the first call I felt like I had known Sarita for years and felt completely at ease. I had my consultation and we discussed various options until I felt happy with the choice I made. There was no pushy sales pitch just lots of information and advice. My past experience of toxins was not good and put me off for a while but I’m glad I made this leap. For anyone considering going down and aesthetics route Sarita is definitely the person to go with.
Each visit I have made feels like I am with my friend and the best choice I have made.
Thankyou Sarita for being you and doing what you know best.
Sarita is good at what she does, she is an expert in her field who goes with not just beauty, but also safety.

Look no where else but with Sarita @Essex Sanctuary.
I have visited Essex Sanctuary on a few occassions now. I cannot speak highly enough of Sarita, her knowledge and professionalism, her friendly and welcoming manner. I am always made to feel relax because I know that I will only be recomended procedures or products that will work for me. There is not pressure to take anything on or book anything and the advice is always honest and explained indepth. I will be continuing my treatments and feel they have had an effect on making me feel better about myself.
Sarita is amazing. On your first visit she takes time to find out your concerns and advises honestly if the treatments she offers will benefit you. She is friendly, professional and will put you completely at ease. I highly recommend Essex Sanctuary. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
loving the service Sarita gives so professional but so friendly too
Loving the teeth whitening service
Sarita is so accommodating with all of her services and so easy to talk to would recommend her to anyone
I’ve been so impressed with the service and treatments I’m receiving. Sarita takes the time to explain everything about the procedures and what to expect in detail. Super friendly and professional! The service, treatment, results and aftercare have all been exceptional! 100% would recommend Essex Sanctuary!
I have been visiting the Essex Sanctuary for many years. I visited Sarita after having Botox treatment elsewhere. I was not happy with the outcome and I was very worried about having any further treatment. Sarita reassured my confidence in this treatment! The Botox Sarita gives me looks very natural and takes away my lines. I also have fillers with Sarita. People always comment that I look much younger than my real age. Sarita ensures I have a perfectly natural look. I simply would not let anyone else touch my face!
I had armpit Botox and I regret not going here sooner!!!! Absolutely amazing!!!! I instantly noticed a difference! Will be coming back here again and again! Brilliant service!
Sarita puts you at ease straight away. She explains everything thoroughly before you make a mutual decision on what's best for you. I have complete confidence in her and would not hesitate recommending her to anyone
Sarita is a perfectionist in her work!
I have been a patient of Sarita’s for a couple of years, I absolutely can not recommend her enough. Sarita does not rush you, explains everything, nothing is too much trouble, I honestly would not go anywhere else. Sarita provides fantastic care in the clinic and aftercare. I have recommended Sarita to a few friends & family and they will all say the same thing.
I was very nervous of having my lips done and wanted a natural look. Sarita talked me through the whole procedure and my options, putting me at ease. I am truly delighted with the results and cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you 😊
Sarita is a warm and friendly lady. She is very professional in her field. She explains the treatments very well and her opinion is of great help too. I have had Botox, derma fillers and profhilo, all of which gave me good results.
Very professional service and the benefits are amazing. Would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for changing my life Sarita xx
!!!GAME CHANGER!!!
I recently visited Sarita at the Essex Sanctuary for underarm botox and it is a real game changer and something i would highly recommend if you are conscious about sweating.

The treatment was professional explained and it was quick, painless and the benefits have been fantastic.

I visited Dubai shortly after my treatment (1 week later) and even in 32c heat i didn’t sweat once where normally i would have been worried and probably wore tops that would have hid the fact i was sweating. This has not only allowed me to wear what i want but also gives you an unexpected boost in confidence.

I never thought being ex-military i would have had this done but it was recommended by a friend and i wish i did it sooner. Overall 5 star treatment and service, thank you
Sarita is lovely, kind and professional, she makes you feel very relaxed, she explains everything about the procedure and takes the time to advise you what is the best product, how it works and the results it will achieve. I am very pleased with the results, I would definitely recommend Sarita. The expertise and care was excellent.
Sarita is superb. I’d been having facial skin problems (pimples under skin & blemishing) and suffering from general facial fatigue and ageing. After a professional and insightful consultation she was able to recommend the perfect rectification treatments for the fatigue and ageing. In addition, I got great advice on introducing a daily routine for skin maintenance that was perfect for my skin. The products available are incredibly effective. A year on and I couldn’t be happier and feel totally confident in how I look and feel. To top it all Sarita’s is really supportive, friendly and attentive every time I’ve seen her. Thank you so much!
I have been going to Sarita for nearly 6 years. I have had Botox & fillers every year. Sarita is so professional and a lovely person that always takes time to make me feel special whenever I come in for treatment. I would not trust anyone else with my face she knows exactly how to achieve the look I want and is always available with advice if I have any concerns. Highly recommend
Amazing. I felt at ease from moment I walked in. Sarita is highly professional and friendly. She took the time to discuss what i was looking to achieve and the options. I am delighted with the results.
I decided to refresh my look but wanted…
I decided to refresh my look but wanted the end result to be subtle but effective. I also wanted to ensure that I would be in the best possible hands so my preference was to have a qualified medical professional rather than from a beautician background.
I had a relaxed consultation with Sarita who explained all my options in detail and we agreed a plan.
The treatments have worked beyond my expectations. I feel so much more confident and look amazing.
Very happy with the results. I had my fitst botox treatment with Sarita last year and was very nervous about it looking too much but Sarita made sure she went subtle for my first and I was very happy, have since been back for my 2nd and even more impressed. Very professional, friendly service, definitely feel like you are in good hands. Thank you.
Sarita, give great advice on the treatments provided and only recommends what you need. Sarita is kind, caring and gentle when injecting, she always freezes the area prior to starting the procedure. Her technique brings amazing results, I would highly recommend Sarita at the Esse, Sanctuary and will not go anywhere else. I did my research prior to booking and would only go see a qualified doctor who understands the muscles in your face and neck.
I can't speak highly enough of Sarita and her services. Her expertise shines through and her professionalism is outstanding. Sarita is very informative about the treatments she offers which inturn helps you to make an informed decision as to what is the right treatment for you. I whole heartedly recommend Essex Sanctuary and I would not go anywhere else.
I highly recommend Sarita & the Essex Sanctuary clinic. I have been going for a couple of years now & wouldn’t go anywhere else. Sarita is always so welcoming & professional & makes you feel at ease from the moment you meet her. You won’t be disappointed! Xxx
