CellDerma Skincare in Worthing — Doctor-Led Recommendations

Dr Amber Halliday, MRCGP MBBS BSc (Hons) | GP & Medical Aesthetics Doctor | Blue Bird Aesthetics, Worthing | Last reviewed: September 2026

CellDerma was developed by a UK aesthetic doctor for use in clinics rather than on shop shelves. The range is focused, and several of its products are designed for use around clinic treatments, which is why it sits alongside the treatments I offer. If you are having microneedling, a skin booster or a peel, GF5 Next Generation is often part of your recovery plan.

Why I stock it alongside AlumierMD

The two ranges do different jobs. AlumierMD is where I build most everyday routines. CellDerma is where I turn when skin is recovering from treatment, when the skin barrier needs support, or when someone wants a short, focused routine rather than a shelf of products.

  • Designed with treatment in mind. Several CellDerma products are formulated for use before and after clinic procedures, when choosing the wrong product matters most.
  • Focused. A shorter range makes it easier to keep a routine simple.
  • Doctor-formulated. Developed by a practising aesthetic doctor.

Start with the concern, not the product

If you already know what is bothering you, start with our skin concerns hub. As a guide:

  • Recovering from a treatment — GF5 Next Generation, to support the skin barrier while it settles
  • Fine lines and loss of firmness — Retin-ACE, built up gradually
  • Uneven tone and dark marks — Pigment Correct, once any flaking has finished
  • Tired-looking skin on a simple routine — Collagen Restore, used at night
  • The under-eye area — EyeLift

The range, and who each product suits

  • GF5 Next Generation — CellDerma’s best-known serum: five growth factors with peptides, ceramides, cholesterol and hyaluronic acid to support the skin barrier. I often suggest it around microneedling, peels and skin boosters, and it can be used as an everyday serum too. It is one of the more expensive products I recommend, so I only suggest it where I think it is worth it.
  • Retin-ACE — a retinoid serum for the evening, starting twice a week and building up. Retinoids are among the best-studied skincare ingredients for ageing skin, and also the easiest to overdo, so I will tell you exactly how to introduce it. Not for use in pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
  • Collagen Restore — a night cream with peptides and resveratrol, for skin that looks tired, dull or less firm. A simple single step where GF5 Next Generation is more than you need.
  • Pigment Correct — for uneven tone and dark marks. Not for use in the week after a resurfacing treatment.
  • Vitamin C Complex — antioxidant support, used morning and evening or in the morning alone, and a sensible partner to Retin-ACE.
  • EyeLift — for the under-eye area, where the skin is thinnest.
  • PHA Renewal Scrub — gentle exfoliation for skin that does not suit stronger products. Not for use in the week after a treatment.
  • Hyaluronic Cream and Stress Defence — everyday moisturisers: Hyaluronic Cream for straightforward hydration, and Stress Defence as a light, non-comedogenic daily layer.

Stock moves, and some products come and go. Message me before you set your heart on something and I will tell you what is on the shelf or can be ordered for you.

Where CellDerma fits with your treatment plan

If you are booked for microneedling, a peel or skin boosters, we agree your recovery skincare before the appointment rather than after it, including which of your usual products to pause and when to restart them. You leave with an aftercare card that sets it out day by day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is GF5 Next Generation worth the price?

For skin recovering from a treatment, it is often worth it. For well-behaved skin on a simple routine, it is not where I would spend money first, and I will tell you so.

Can I use CellDerma and AlumierMD together?

Yes, and many patients do. The risk is doubling up on active ingredients without realising. Bring both routines to your appointment and I will set the order.

When can I start after a treatment?

It depends on the treatment. Your aftercare card gives the timings, and I would rather you asked than guessed.

Are retinoids safe for me?

For most people, yes, when built up gradually. Not in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and not straight after resurfacing. We go through your history before you start.

Do you earn commission?

Yes. I have said so plainly so you can weigh my recommendation, and I will always tell you where a less expensive option would serve you equally well.
