What are stem cells?
Medically and cosmetically, stem cells are considered one of the most promising mechanisms. They have been involved in many, many treatments and procedures. It is expected that the rates of their use and perhaps even reliance on them will increase greatly in the coming days. But what are they?
As a raw material, stem cells can be defined in the natural sciences as those materials that provide a basic basis for the formation and synthesis of other cells.
We find that stem cells divide dramatically, and their division results in other cells, known scientifically as \”daughter cells\”, and these cells, in turn, have two possibilities, either to become other stem cells, or to begin to differentiate and specialize, to assume other roles and functions. You weren\’t doing it in its previous position.
Some of these cells become soldiers of the heart, while others join the blood, nerves, brain and even bones. In fact, this is one of the most impressive and exciting things about stem cells. Unusually new.
This means that stem cells are the only exception. This is the reason why they are involved in many procedures, whether therapeutic at the medical level, or complementary at the cosmetic level. This is why they are used to treat many hair and skin problems.
Know that there are two types of stem cells, which are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells.
Researchers in recent times have shown that the adult type of cells is capable of division and giving different types of cells; however, the embryonic cells, ranging in age from 3 to 5 days, are more capable of diversifying when dividing, and they have been credited with regeneration of damaged tissues and organs, as well as the ability to repair them.
Epidermal stem cells
From time to time, dermatologists and cosmetologists resort to mechanisms to help develop and facilitate the concept of skin care. These mechanisms help address wrinkles and lines in their various forms and images, which represent signs of aging and aging.
Therefore, today there are many advanced cosmetic mechanisms for skin care. However, development in reality may not be associated in many cases with modern machines and equipment. The concept of cosmetics changes dramatically as a result.
Currently, it has been established that the paths between medicine and cosmetology collide at a point that is significant and contains advantages. This point is specifically pertaining to totem cells, about which countless studies have been conducted regarding treatments for Alzheimer\’s, cancer, and others.
The reason for which he intervened in the world of cosmetics is the same as in the world of medicine. This is permanent renewal, knowing that the cells that are used for the skin may not even be human cells. Yes, that is indeed true, as these cells are often extracted from animals and plants and put into cosmetics.
In cosmetic clinics, the focus is on human stem cells, which are extracted from the patient undergoing treatment, and at the present time, this treatment is viewed as the most prominent non-surgical cosmetic procedure, which may sometimes produce the most desirable results without requiring surgery.
This procedure has the ability to rejuvenate the cells of the face, and make it appear more youthful than it is. It reduces wrinkles that arise due to aging, and enhances the collagen content it contains. It also has the ability to increase the activity of blood circulation in the area under treatment.
How is a facelift done with stem cells?
After dealing with the concept of stem cells, which subsequently entered the world of cosmetics, skin care, hair, and others, we have to address the stages that those who undergo this cosmetic procedure may face.
At the beginning, a doctor works to remove some fatty tissue from the body. This issue is often removed from the abdominal area. Then, these tissues are treated in a precise and sophisticated manner, in laboratories specialized in handling these tissues. This process results in a lot of materials and cells, especially stem cells.
These cells are packed into needles or syringes. The beautician or dermatologist injects these cells into the tissues of the face. He knows that in many cases he mixes these tissues with other materials that promote tissue growth and regeneration.
Due to the ability of these cells to divide into different cells, the injected materials begin to simulate other tissues. Therefore, they do their work, which accelerates the processes that are supposed to take place naturally in the skin, such as the production of collagen, for example.
Knowing that in some cases, doctors resort to scratching certain parts of the face. This is with the aim of urging stem cells to work, and stimulating them to regenerate the skin more and more effectively.
As a result, the face begins to plump and plump again, regaining its natural size. This leaves wrinkles and signs of aging behind. In the end, those who undergo this procedure will have a uniform and distinct skin color, with a very soft, elastic texture.
In general, he has a taut face, full of signs of vitality and youth. This gives the recipient of this treatment a general appearance that makes him appear younger than his age.
Stem cell skin treatments are considered ideal because they are inexpensive, compared to their counterparts and other available alternatives. Because they don\’t require making incisions and surgeries in the face, they leave no visible scars or marks. Basmat Al Hayat MedCenter offers regular therapy sessions with these cells and other mechanisms.
