Looking for stocking fillers for grown-ups? Why not think about some seriously effective skincare products?
If you want to improve your skin and tackle signs of ageing, but aren’t quite ready to consider aesthetic treatments, or even if you already have regular Botox injections but want to give it a boost at home, why not consider our range of clinically proven skincare?
Over the Counter (OTC) products are available all around us from the local pharmacy to supermarkets and they all claim amazing results. The sheer abundance of skincare products can leave you overwhelmed without any real understanding of what’s right for your skin.
These types of products, which you can pick up on the high street or the supermarket are going to be purely cosmetic and will only have superficial effects on the top layer of skin.
On the other hand, if you see a GP for a pharmaceutical skin product then it’s generally not likely to have an effect on the skin’s overall health or appearance but will be focused on a medical cure.
In between these two extremes there’s another, intermediate level of cosmeceutical products which are designed to have more penetrating effects on lower levels of the skin, producing more profound improvements in complexion and skin health. These products can make fantastic stocking fillers for teenage children, or even for grown-ups.
One of the key differences between OTC and cosmeceutical products is the delivery method. At the molecular level OTC products tend to be quite large and therefore can’t penetrate the skin whereas cosmeceutical products are “wrapped up” in tiny liposomes which penetrate to the lower levels.
The most important thing to do is seek the advice of skin care specialists about the right product for you and your skin.
Skilled professionals, such as the aestheticians here at Cambridge Clear Beauty will be able to guide you through the maze of different products and be able to recommend a tried and tested solution.

All I want for Christmas… is to look 10 years younger! Christmas at Cambridge Clear Beauty we can help you achieve just that this Christmas.
With Botox to smooth out those worry lines and dermal fillers to deal with any deeper creases, we’ve got the wrinkles covered, and we can use chemical peels and laser treatments to give your skin a rejuvenating radiance.
Botox, or botulinum toxin to give it its full name, is a particularly flexible treatment which doesn’t require an anaesthetic. Although the results are not quite immediate (normally it takes about a week) the effects will last approximately 6 to 9 months.
There’s certainly plenty of time to get the treatment in time for the Christmas party season. The procedure has hardly any downtime, although you may notice some mild soreness and bruising in the first couple of days after the treatment.
Also, it is worth noting that botox is a neurotoxin and is a prescription drug so it should only be administered by a qualified medical practitioner such as our own cosmetic plastic surgeon Tariq Ahmad. Time it right and you could easily look 10 years younger in time for the Christmas party.
Whilst chemical peels and laser treatments are a little more invasive and can bring some downtime whilst the resurfacing work on the affected area heals, they are both highly effective treatments for a range of skin issues from sun damage to even some types of acne.
Because both these treatments peel away the old top layer of the skin you can to feel younger and more vital as well as look it.
We know that most people don’t want to change their look, they just want to look the best they can so why not make an appointment with us this holiday season to see how we can rejuvenate you and your skin, leaving you looking 10 years younger.
