Energy assisted stem cell extract

Abstract

A process utilizing an electromagnetic and mechanical energy to produce tissue damage in small regions of skin without damage to neighboring tissue. This permits healthy physiological responses originating in the neighboring tissue to repair the damaged tissue or to produce new healthy tissue to replace the damaged tissue including stem cells attraction. Topical application of stem cells extracts and growth factors to mobilize into the damaged area local and systemic stem cells. And a wide variety of energy sources may be utilized.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is a schematic drawing of a human skin in cross section after radiation energy micro injury with inflammatory and wound healing factors release.

FIG. 2 is a drawing showing a skin with a topical stem cell extracts gel releasing stem cell components via epidermal stratum corneum opening created by radiation.

FIG. 3 shows a stem cells mobilization and wound healing factors attraction into the wide area around radiation and topical applications of stem cells extracts.

Claims

1. A process for skin rejuvenation comprising: A) applying an electromagnetic or mechanical energy to produce damage to skin tissue to produce a plurality of damaged regions while protecting from damage other regions of the skin that neighbor the damaged regions;B) allowing the persons natural wound healing and immune response factors originating in the regions of the skin to be released from the damage area to repair and/or replace skin tissue damaged in the damaged region by attracting a necessary body components including but not limited to local and systemic stem cells; andC) applying to said skin tissue a composition comprising stem cells and/or stem cell extracts to mobilize stem cells into the damaged area.

2. The process as in claim 1 wherein the radiation source is a radiation source chosen from a group of sources consisting of the following sources: radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible light, and ultraviolet light and even x-ray and gamma ray radiation.

3. The process as in claim 1 wherein said stem cell extracts is a composition comprising stem cells and stem cells components.

4. The process as in claim 1 wherein said stem cell extracts composition may contain the additional non-stem cells components including growth factors and/or growth factor receptors.

5. The process as in claim 1 wherein said stem cell extracts compound further comprise one or more non-stem cell agents selected from the group consisting of tissue growth factors, hyaluronic acid, elastin, co-enzyme Q10, vitanol, D-panthenol.

6. A kit comprising: a laser for inducing minor injury to the skin of an individual; anda composition selected from one or both members of the group consisting of a preparation of whole stem cells, and a stem cell extract.

7. A method for enhancing uptake of a composition by the skin of an individual comprising: irradiating the individual's skin with a laser; andapplying the composition to the irradiated skin of the individual.

8. The method of claim 8, wherein the composition comprises a stem cell composition for rejuvenating the skin of the individual.

9. A method for skin rejuvenation comprising: A) creating a minor injury to the skin of an individual using a laser; andB) applying a stem cell composition to the minor skin injury.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the minor injury induces a beneficial immune response that recruits local and systemic stem cells to the minor injury.
