Stem-cell-boosting skin creams are cropping up everywhere, but serious research and clinical tests separate the coveted from the late-night infomercial specials. So much so that some are even teaming up with the medical world's researchers to reap the benefits of their discoveries - as in the case of Dior/LVMH's partnership with Stanford University's Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine. Now just imagine what they could do to reboot wrinkled, sagging, mottled skin.īeauty companies are eager to find out. "Recent discoveries have shown that somatic stem cells, found in skin, can be programmed to grow new skin, hair, and nerves." Or, theoretically, any of the 200-plus types of cells that make up our bodies, in addition to healing wounds and fixing chronic skin diseases like psoriasis.
Alfred Lane, professor of dermatology and pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine. The magic of stem cells is their versatility: "They have the ability to divide, renew themselves, and form new organs," explains Dr. But in the fast-evolving world of stem cell research, this technology is very much in sight - we're talking years, not decades, away. Imagine a burn victim whose skin can miraculously regenerate with an injection of her own stem cells - no painful skin grafts required.
