Skin Aging
• Healthy skin constantly refreshes itself in a cycle of 28 days (4 weeks), and the refreshing process
is controlled and governed by skin stem cell present in epidermis and dermis in the skin.
• Skin stem cell rapidly decreases in number after at the age of 30s and 40s, thus the skin
refreshing process is slowed down, which is a root cause of skin aging
Ref: H. Akamatsu et al., (2016) J. Dermatol 43: 311
5. 01
Stem cell conditioned media
• Stem cell conditioned media is a collection of signal traducing molecules secreted by stem cell,
and the conditioned media shows a potency to activate indigenous stem cell present in the body
• Stem cell conditioned media thus may be able to reverse or at least delay skin stem cell aging
process if used as an active ingredient in cosmetic product
Activation of indigenous stem
cells

Regenerative skincare
• Prof. Uyama Keiko at Tokyo dental university proposes skincare at cellular level for ultimate skin anti-
aging and recommends “stem cell conditioned media” to restore aging and diminishing skin stem
cells
• Prof. Uyama introduces concept of “Regenerative skincare” in her book titled “Beauty in the cell (細胞
美人)”

Stem Cell Quality
• The quality of stem cell conditioned media depends on the quality of stem cell it is derived from.
• Stem cell also ages as other types of cell, and thus the regenerative capacity decrease as it ages.
• Cautions should be made in choosing stem cell conditioned media cosmetic product about stem
cell donor eligibility, quality of stem cell, isolation and processing methods.
Ref: Yao B. et al., (2016) Int Wound J 13: 1252
