How it Works

Imagine being able to clone your own healthy skin and create brand new cells, undamaged by age, sun or pollution. Your face becomes more able to produce firm, hydrated skin, free from the look of blemishes, wrinkles, and lines. Stem Cell Mask can help make this dream your reality, as you begin to fall in love with the look and feel of your own skin!

Stem Cell Mask rejuvenates the appearance of your face with bio-active stem cells derived from ovine placental and umbilical cord tissue. These safe and natural stem cells, obtained from healthy sheep raised at special medicinal farms in New Zealand, have the ability to help aged and damaged skin look young again.

Conventional cosmetics and pharmaceutical treatments, such as Botox or fillers, damage the skin with repeated use. Stem Cell Mask enhances appearance naturally, allowing your face to look younger and more beautiful with each application. Facial vitality, youth, and vibrancy can be restored. Your skin looks younger and healthier simply because it is!

Other reported benefits of the relaxing Stem Cell Mask application include: stimulation of pleasure centers, enhanced creativity and concentration, lower stress levels, and an overall sense of well being and peace.

There is a growing demand for natural cosmetics as consumers become concerned about the long term effects of pharmaceutical based “beauty” treatments. The future of the cosmetic industry belongs to the products and methods that help the skin look healthier and younger naturally, not to those that hide the problems with needles, drugs, and surgeries.

Stem cells cosmetics represent a revolution in the beauty industry by providing consumers with a powerful, yet safe alternative for enhancing appearance. Stem Cell Mask, LLC is proud to be leading this revolution.

The Science

Stem cells are biological cells with unique regenerative abilities. Stem cells serve as an internal repair system to replace worn out or damaged tissues. When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the potential either to remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, such as a heart cell, a blood cell, or a skin cell.

In 2005, it was discovered that 4 types of pluripotent stem cells originate in the placental and umbilical cord tissue of mammals: Amniotic Epithelial Stem Cells (AESCs), Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (UVECs), and Umbilical Cord Matrix Cells (UCMCs).

Stem Cells: Amniotic vs. Embryonic

While placental and umbilical tissue derived stem cells share many similiarities with embryonic stem cells, there are important differences to note:

• Like embryonic stem cells, placental and umbilical cord tissue cells express many of the same surface markers and transcription factors normally present on embryonic stem and germ cells, which identifies them as true stem cells.
• Like embryonic stem cells, placental and umbilical cord tissue cells are also pluripotent, which means they can differentiate into any type of cell in the body. This means there are no cells in the body they cannot repair or replace.
• Unlike embryonic stem cells, placental and umbilical cord tissue cells are harvested ethically. There is no controversy regarding their use, because they are derived from the post-birth, discarded placenta of healthy sheep raised at medicinal farms.
• Unlike embryonic cells, placental and umbilical cord tissue stem cells do NOT cause teratomas and other types of neoplasms. Placental and umbilical cord tissue derived cells are completely safe and nonallergenic.

In addition, placental and umbilical cord tissue stem cells express the stem cell specific transcription factors octamer-binding protein 4 (Oct-4), and the "immortality" gene Nanog. The gene Nanog, found in stem cells, appears to be the "master gene", coordinating other genes to allow stem cells to multiply limitlessly, while still retaining their ability to differentiate. (It was christened Nanog after the land in Celtic myth called Tir nan Og, whose inhabitants remained forever young.)

Lyophilization Preserves Stem Cells

Around the time placental and umbilical cord tissue stem cells were discovered (2005), lyophilization technology made a giant leap forward. Lyophilization, or freeze drying, is the preeminent process for preserving sensitive biologicals. Given that stem cells are smaller in size and structure than regular mammalian cells, they easily survive this process.

The stem cells in Stem Cell Mask are extracted from the lyophilized placenta and umbilical tissue of sheep raised on special medicinal farms in New Zealand. The placenta and umbilical tissue of these certified animals is harvested and frozen immediately after the birth. Lyophilization provides the greatest possible preservation of the stem cells’ vitality.

Facial Rejuvenation for Men and Women

When it comes to the skin, men and women are not created equally. Accordingly, we formulated Stem Cell Mask to work optimally for both sexes. Here are some of the interesting differences between male and female skin that Stem Cell Mask Femme and Homme were formulated to address.

Female Skin

• A woman’s skin is thinner than a man’s. This means that women are more vulnerable to skin damage caused by the sun’s UVA rays. It is one of the principle reasons why female skin suffers more from sun damage.

• The loss of vital proteins such as collagen and elastin serves as an important marker of skin aging. Studies performed to measure the loss of these proteins revealed that women’s skin loses collagen and elastin at a faster rate than men’s skin does.

• The female hormone estrogen results in women’s skin secreting less oil than men, although women actually have larger sebaceous (oil) glands.

• Women have more hormonal activity than men and are therefore more likely to develop hyper-pigmentation and dark spots on their skin. Certain skin conditions related to menopause can make the appearance of the skin darker in areas where estrogen receptors are concentrated.

Male Skin

• The daily shaving ritual destroys the hydrolytic film on the skin's surface. This reduces the skin's natural protection and leaves men’s skin feeling dry and rough.

• Daily shaving also causes inflammation of the skin by creating scrapes and nicks. This makes a man’s skin more sensitive and easily irritated than a women’s.

• Men’s skin produces more oil because men have more sebaceous glands. This tends to increase the appearance of large pores.

• Men typically spend more time outdoors and tend to expose their skin to an array of skin damaging conditions from sun, wind, and water.

 

Stem Cell Mask Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What exactly is Stem Cell Mask?

A. Stem Cell Mask delivers genetically perfect, pluripotent stem cells – extracted from ovine (sheep) placenta and umbilical cord tissue – to the skin of the face and neck in the form of a serum. It is a 100% natural product, with no chemicals or synthetic additives. Stem Cell Mask is a professional cosmetic product designed to be used in a professional setting by a licensed or certified beauty professional.

Q. How is Stem Cell Mask used?

A. The experience is relaxing. The face is gently washed before application. The serum containing stem cells is infused into the skin by spreading it on the face and neck. When dry (about 40 minutes), Stem Cell Mask is non-sticky and leaves the face looking smooth and radiant. The entire session lasts about an hour.

Q. Who should use Stem Cell Mask?

A. The short answer is, anyone who wants to look their best. Those with aged or sun-damaged skin will love how much better they look after each application. Those with young and beautiful skin will be thrilled by how well Stem Cell Mask protects their complexion from the effects of aging and the environment.

Q. How often should Stem Cell Mask be used?

A. One. Stem Cell Mask provides exceptional results by delivering substantial numbers of bio-active stem cells directly to the skin. One bottle of Stem Cell Mask (15ml of solution) contains enough stem cells to noticeably “de-age” the face and neck of one person. Although the face and neck may appear saturated with solution half-way during application, the entire bottle should be applied and all will be absorbed.

Q. How many applications are in one bottle?

A. One. Stem Cell Mask provides exceptional results by delivering large numbers of bio-active stem cells directly to the dermis. When applied in sufficient concentration, stem cells de-age the skin. One bottle of Stem Cell Mask (15ml of solution) contains the exact amount of stem cells required to effectively de-age the skin for one person. Although the face and neck may appear saturated half-way during application, the entire solution should be applied and all will be absorbed into the skin.

Q. What facial pre-treatments do you recommend?

A. When appropriate, gentle pre-treatments such as massage, acupuncture or acupressure, bio-photon therapy, and micro-current can be used to complement Stem Cell Mask. We do not recommend using Stem Cell Mask after surgeries, mechanical abrasions, chemical peels, laser peels, and other ablative facial treatments. In these cases, wait at least 28 days to apply Stem Cell Mask.

Q. Where do the stem cells in the mask come from?

A. The stem cells in Stem Cell Mask are extracted from the lyophilized (freeze dried) placenta and umbilical tissue (afterbirth) of sheep raised on special medicinal farms in New Zealand. The extensive pastoral farming systems used by New Zealand farmers is wonderful for raising sheep and other animals. Since there is no need to house farm animals for long periods, their freedom of movement is rarely restricted and they live a more "natural" life than livestock in other countries. The afterbirth of these certified healthy sheep is ethically harvested and frozen immediately after the birth. No animals are hurt or harmed in collecting the post-birth placenta and umbilical tissue.

Q. Why sheep? Why don’t you use human placenta and umbilical cord stem cells?

A. Sheep are ideal stem cell donors for two main reasons. First, there are no essential differences on a cellular level between the enzymatic and functional capacities of human and sheep cells, which means the tissues function essentially the same. Sheep placental pluripotent stem cells have the same ability as human placental stem cells to produce every type of mammalian cell. Second, our sheep live in New Zealand’s natural environment. Their health history is verified by over 150 years of documented breeding. They are certified disease-free. As it becomes increasingly more difficult to find healthy human donor sources anywhere in the world, these sheep are clearly a healthier and more vital source of stem cells.

Q. Other cosmetic products also claim to heal and rejuvenate the skin. How is Stem Cell Mask different?

A. Stem Cell Mask is unique because our active ingredient is real stem cells. While other natural cosmetics contain nutrients or plant extracts that may help the skin, only Stem Cell Mask delivers substantial numbers of bio-active stem cells directly to the skin.

Q. Does Stem Cell Mask contain any drugs?

A. No. All the ingredients in Stem Cell Mask are functional cosmetic ingredients that serve a cosmetic purpose. Stem Cell Mask is 100% Natural, Cruelty Free, Non-Comedogenic, and Paraben-Free. We make no medical claims for Stem Cell Mask.

Q. Is Stem Cell Mask FDA approved?

A. Professional cosmetic products (cosmetic products administrated by a licensed beauty professional in the professional offices) are not cleared or approved by the FDA. It is the responsibility of the cosmetic manufacturer to substantiate the safety of their product and to verify that their claims are truthful and not misleading. Stem Cell Mask's main ingredient has been tested by reputable, independent research laboratories and has been found to be safe. Stem Cell Mask is sold only to licensed professionals.

Q. What is the shelf life of Stem Cell Mask?

A. Indefinite with refrigeration.
