01The question

What role do human stem cell derivatives play in skin care?

Human stem cells are harvested from adults and are used in various cosmetic procedures such as face lifts and PRP treatments, but may not be efficient in skin care as the cells would not differentiate into skin cells. However, we can use the stem cells as ‘ghost’ cells by implanting fibroblast DNA into the cell, thereby resulting in the production of fibroblasts. This technique is known as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). Fibroblasts are responsible for generating connective tissue and allowing skin to recover from injury. As we age, the rate at which new skin cells turn over reduces — this may be perceived as a form of injury to the skin as well.

02How it is made

Culturing skin-targeted growth factors

Human stem cells can also be encouraged to culture skin-targeted growth factors and peptides by placing them in a growth media containing fibroblasts.

By using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) we manufacture fibroblast cells, and with them we produce skin-targeted growth factors. Our products are then fortified with the fibroblasts and growth factors that we have cultured. The bioactives in our product promote the formation of collagen and elastin to improve skin health.

03Why it matters

Advantages of human stem cell derived supplements

  1. 01

    Ideal growth factors are produced for humans, as the growth factors are derivatives of human fibroblast cells themselves.

  2. 02

    Improves skin tone and texture.

  3. 03

    Reduces fine wrinkles and lines.

  4. 04

    Extremely safe and efficient, as it is a human derivative only — the chances of any reaction are almost nil.
