 Cell cosmetic is what most rumours are about. Some call it a wondrous elixir of youth that many beauticians of best beauty parlours stake on, others - a dangerous drug that one can get hooked on.
The promise to look younger with hands down, just using a certain
cream is indeed very tempting. Still misgivings twitch: what is going
to happen when the magic remedy runs short? Can the aging process
continue, and three times faster at that?
The history of fairy
beauticraft started in Switzerland of 1913 when doctor Paul Nihans
administered a preparation containing sheep cells to his death-marked
patient. Finally, the woman survived, and the doctors' 40-year research
findings really made a stir at the International Congress of
Endocrinologists.
It is Paul Nihans who is considered the founder
of cell therapy which is a new and popular way of quick health
resumption. According to scientists, it was used by Marlene Dietrich,
Sophi Loren, Elizabeth Tailor and other recognized beauties of
different times. They did not only get better faster, but also younger
literary before eyes. Thus, professor Nihans set about to experiment
with various beauty aids made of embryo cellsб but preservation method
allowing to keep all there health-giving properties was discovered
after the scientist's death.
The method of preparing the
suspension was the following: cells were processed in centrifuge in
cold and then put in a special stabilizing solution. Such suspension
"breathed" namely preserved all properties of living cells. Today the
only "true" follower of Nihans is the Swiss company "Cellcosmet" though
the term "cellular" one can find on labels of mass production cosmetic.
The thing is that some manufactures use the term for all beauty aids
containing any raw animal material (placenta, embryos), some - for
creams containing cells of vegetable origin, others - for creams having
effect on the cellular level. But officially recognized cell cosmetic
is related to complexes made of animal organs and tissues: cows, pigs,
chickens, and sheep.
The most "clean" sheep are those that
peacefully graze in emerald Alpine meadows and haven't got the faintest
idea of all-mash. The last most popular trend of industry is
"information cosmetic", the main ingredient of which is artificially
synthesized cell material. Its fundamental distinction is that it not
only stimulates, but also controls renewal of youth: aging cells start
acting as if they were "young". Of course, every woman dreams of a
beauty aid which once applied on the face makes them look ten-twenty
years younger and of radiant beauty right there and then.
Yet
there are no marvels and one should be careful when using cell cosmetic
and also remember that the elixir of youth can't take effect right
away. On the one hand, any high-quality cosmetic is healthy for skin:
it nourishes, moisturizes, tonics and softens it. As a result your skin
looks well-cared. On the other hand, young cells need time to saturate
"fading" ones. It takes several weeks before your skin is fresher and
firmer. Moreover, one should also bear in mind that application of cell
cosmetic is a ceremony consisting of a number of mysterious steps, none
of which can be ignored: peeling, massage, and activating gel usage.
One
should be extra careful when using ampullaceous beauty aids containing
highly active cell serum, as well as remember that in spite of new cell
complexes meant for young skin, cosmetic formulations were initially
designed for ladies at minimum 35. Now scientists assure that cell
cosmetic is non-addictive ,and one can "get hooked on" it just as on
any other good cosmetic taking the desired effect.
Cosmetic
manufacturers also claim that such cosmetic doesn't contain hormones,
it is strictly controlled, and is not related to medicines since its
effective area is only restricted to skin. But any new method brings
about many questions still remained unanswered. How long, for example,
one can use the wondrous cosmetics? Can it cause new unwanted effects
since the technique is rather aggressive? Besides, one should not
forget that pharmaceuticals study takes a lot of time, and cosmetic is
not so meticulously tested.
