Blood can also be turned into skin care products? In addition to the natural care products mentioned above, in fact, the more popular maintenance among ancient nobles is actually related to "blood"! For example, in medieval Hungary, there was a beautiful lady, Mrs. Lixteber, also called bloody Mary.
It is said that the way to keep her beautiful is to take a bath with virgin blood and drink 500 ml of blood before bathing. In these two ways, toxins in vivo and in vitro can be purified. This way of using human blood for maintenance now sounds creepy, but it is really possible in the ears of scientists!
In the latest issue of Hehototopic, I talked about the history of skin care products, as well as the rumored method of nourishing blood and maintaining youth forever. Dr Zhang Yiwen, CEO of Jianzhong Cell Biomedical, said: "In fact, this is reasonable! 」
This is because from the cytological point of view, human blood contains good anti-inflammatory substances, growth factors and so on. And it is indeed possible to achieve anti-aging and skin regeneration. But the biggest risk is "the source of blood", and whether there are viruses and bacteria that can cause infectious diseases is the biggest risk of using this maintenance method.
It looks strange that American celebrities draw their own blood to make masks. It will still be used in 2020. Kim Kardashian, an American entertainment celebrity, drew his own blood, separated the growth factors from the blood, and injected them into the beauty part. In this way, collagen elastic fibers are produced at the injection site, which promotes the regeneration of skin tissue.
This maintenance method, called vampire skin care method, is said to cost 1 USD for a course of treatment with one injection. 500 yuan, the pursuit of immortality is really not cheap!
Dr. Zhang Yiwen said that this maintenance method is actually used in medicine, that is, "Platelet-rich PLA * * * A (PRP)" to treat degenerative arthritis. This treatment is to draw blood by yourself and then separate and take out the plasma.
These plasma contain growth factors, so injecting these treated plasma into joints can help the regeneration of knee cartilage, repair the degenerated tissues around the knee, make people return to normal walking and reduce pain.
However, Dr. Zhang Yiwen also reminded that although autologous blood is extracted for medical treatment, it depends on the quality of blood, such as whether it is clean or not. Do you have three high diseases? Young enough? Is the key to influence.
The trend of modern skin care products developed from the ancients who used essential oil, honey and cream to keep young. Because of the different maintenance requirements, skin care products can be divided into ordinary grade, medical grade and even top-grade skin care products containing cytokines. With the continuous progress of medical technology, there will be "customized" skin care products for personal physique in the future!
