STEM CELL THERAPY: Renewal of skin among Filipinos ages 40 above
THESIS STATEMENT Stem cells have recently become a huge buzzword in the skincare world. But what does it really mean to use stem cells in skin care? Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types in the body. When a stem cell divides, it can remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as a skin cell.
. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
1. What is a stem cell therapy?
2. Will skin cell therapy help people live longer?
3. Is skin cell therapy expensive?
4. What are the risks of skin cell therapy?
5. When is skin cell therapy discovered?
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY Over the decades, multiple procedures have been presented for rejuvenation of the face, most of them stressing the need for extensive surgery in the form of a facelift. In the last 10 years, use of temporary fillers has become a very popular avenue for temporary rejuvenation, or at least for creating the illusion of a younger, more rested, facial appearance. Still there is controversy surrounding the use of stem cells, as some experts say that any product that claims to affect the growth of stem cells or the replication process is potentially dangerous, as it may lead to out-of-control replication or mutation. Others object to using embryonic stem cells from an ethical point of view. Some researchers believe that the use of stem cell technology for a topical, anti-aging cosmetic trivializes other, more important medical research in this field.
SCOPE AND DELIMITATION This research only covered the use of stem cell therapy specifically for skin only, thus any other application of stem cell except the skin will not be covered. Furthermore, this research covers only the stem cell treatment for skin among
