Genetic Cell Therapy in Anti-Aging Regenerative Cosmetology

As post-WWII baby boomer approaching age 80, Anti-Aging Regenerative Cosmetology (AARC) has been developed and patented for beautifying and strengthening the human body using live cells;to enhance the appearance and function of various bodily parts to provide health and aestheticism of human being throughout life. It is a combined cosmetic and preventive medicine to intervene with and to correct the undesirable phenotypic expression of aging. The intrinsic properties of myoblasts and foreskin fibroblasts in development and regeneration are harnessed to formulate a genetic cell therapy program which is safe and efficacious as previously been tested in FDA Phase III clinical trials. Myoblasts are selected for strength development and foreskin fibroblasts for tenacity and smooth-to-the-touch. Both cell types are highly mitotic and non-carcinogenic. In additional to providing large quantities of nuclei as regenerative gene medicine, and of mitochondria as energy generators, myoblasts secret tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) for skin whitening and melanoma prevention. Myoblasts, because of their small size, spindle shape, and resilience, grow readily on collagen and laminin within wrinkles of skin surfaces, thus enhancing the color, luster, and texture of the skin “plated” with them. Alternatively, they can be injected subcutaneously as cell filler to reduce wrinkles. Intramuscular injection of myoblasts can augment the size, shape, consistency, tone, and strength of muscle groups, improving the lines, contours, and vitality to sculpt a youthful appearance. By improving cell genetics and organ functions, the program holds promise to sustain the human subject in good health and appearance, with a good quality of life and life prolongation.

Cosmetology Incision in Treatment of Benign Tumor of Breast: A Report of 1000 Cases

Skin 3D Bioprinting. Applications in Cosmetology

Tissue engineering has been used for the treatment of several skin diseases and lesions;however, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine also have a huge potential in cosmetology. They include skin substitutes, cell therapy and wound-healing treatments based on biomaterial-based replacements and 3D systems. This review focuses on the bioprinting technology and how it can improve skin functions, restoring pigmentation or helping hair follicles to develop.

Cosmetology Services in Ukraine:Problems of Legal Regulation

The demand for cosmetology services has been recently growing in Ukraine,but there is no proper legal regulation for their provision.The aim of the article is to analyze the current status and specific features of legal regulation for the provision of cosmetology services in Ukraine,as well as to suggest the improvements to Ukrainian legislation in this area.The main objective is to distinguish the problems and to develop suggestions to improve regulatory legal acts regulating the provision of cosmetic services in Ukraine.Materials to identify the specific features of the current state of legal regulation in regard to the provision of cosmetology services in Ukraine were the legislation and case law of Ukraine,the works of Ukrainian scholars,analytical materials and Internet resources.The methodological basis of the research is general and special methods of scientific cognition,the use of which is due to specific features of the legal regulation of the market of cosmetology services.It has been stated that there is currently no normatively established procedure and specific features for the implementation of activities for the provision of cosmetology services in Ukrainian laws;there are also no standards for their provision,treatment of complications and training of qualified personnel.The author has formulated proposals to improve the legislation regulating the provision of cosmetology services and cosmetic care to the Ukrainian population.The Ministry of Health of Ukraine was offered to develop and approve a regulatory legal act governing the procedure for the provision of cosmetology services and the list of services that can be provided exclusively by health professionals.

上海23家民营医疗美容机构及其从业人员现况调查

目的 了解民营医疗美容机构医疗美容项目及医护人员配置和能力情况。方法 通过分层抽样抽取上海市5个区23家民营医疗美容机构,采用现场调查、个人访谈及调查表进行调查分析。结果 调查的医疗美容机构以医疗门诊部为主(73.91%),60%以上经营时间在10年以内,60%以上设立在写字楼内或沿街商铺。项目以轻医疗美容为主,皮肤美容项目最多,占95.65%,其次是美容外科,占91.30%。美容间、手术室及苏醒室的平均周转速度分别为每间201.72人次/月、42.41人次/月及167.19人次/月。平均每家机构有专业医护人员40.08人、行政辅助人员21.52人。感染控制(以下简称“感控”)人员的均数为2.17人/家,专职比例为36.00%。感控继续教育中无菌操作、手卫生、安全注射等项目的培训参与率为95.45%、90.91%、68.18%。结论 民营医疗美容机构项目主要以轻医疗美容为主,感控能力建设不足,在硬件设置、人员配备和培训上仍需加强。

Disease Prevention and Alleviation by Human Myoblast Transplantation

Myoblast implantation is a unique, patented technology of muscle regeneration being tested in Phase III clinical trials of muscular dystrophy, ischemic cardiomyopathy, Phase II trial of cancer, and Phase I trial of Type II diabetes. Differentiated and committed, myoblasts are not stem cells. Implanted myoblasts fuse spontaneously among themselves, replenishing genetically normal myofibers. They also fuse with genetically abnormal myofibers of muscular dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, or Type II diabetes, transferring their nuclei containing the normal human genome to provide stable, long-term expression of the missing gene products. They develop to become cardiomyocytes in the infracted myocardium. Myoblasts transduced with VEGF165 allow concomitant regeneration of blood capillaries and myofibers. They are potent biologics for treating heart failure, ischemic cardiomyopathy, diabetic ischemia, erectile dysfunction, and baldness. Myoblasts, because of their small size, spindle shape, and resilience, can grow within wrinkles and on skin surfaces, thus enhancing the color, luster and texture of the skin “plated” with them. They can be injected subcutaneously as a cellular filler to reduce wrinkles. Intramuscular injection of myoblasts can augment the size, shape, consistency, tone and strength of muscle groups, improving the lines, contours and vitality to sculpt a youthful appearance. This highly promising technology has great social economic values in treating hereditary, fatal and debilitating disease conditions.

Sauna Physiotherapeutic Cosmetological Apparatus

The Shibao Brand Sauna Physiotherapeutic Cosmetological Apparatus is designed and produced with a high magnetic material on the basis of the sauna theory. It uses the vapour produced by the strong magnetic field which is immediately transformed into a magnetized vapour. Through this steam bath, the trichopore of the body is

Rapidly separable bubble microneedle patch for effective local anesthesia

In cutaneous cosmetology surgery,local injection or coated anesthetics are generally used to provide analgesia at the treatment site to achieve painless operation.Due to the barrier of corneum,topical cream may cause uncertain dosage and delayed analgesia.Local injection has problems such as pain,infection,and misoperation.Therefore,it is necessary to develop a painless and rapid administration method for local anesthesia.Here,a lidocaine/hyaluronic acid bubble microneedle patch(Lido/HA bMNP)was prepared for rapid drug delivery and efficient analgesia.The bubble structure between microneedles(MNs)and the backing layer allowed the MNs to efficiently penetrate into the skin and remove from the backing layer under shear force to rapidly complete the administration.Drugs were quickly released with the dissolution of HA within 15 s,which immediately played an analgesic effect and lasted for 1 h.Lido/HA bMNP could deliver precise doses to the skin in an extremely short time,which had the advantages of convenient operation,high biosafety,rapid onset of analgesia,and reasonable pain relief time.This patch provided an alternative way for local anesthesia and it was a promising transdermal drug delivery method for the realization of high quality and efficiency“painless medical beauty”.
