The book presents the current state of knowledge in the field of application stem cells in cosmetology, trichology and aesthetic medicine based on reliable, latest scientific reports, in the mainstream translational science. The publication is divided into two parts, in which: the first deals with biological issues, covering in a transparent manner the biology of stem cells in individual human body organs, with particular emphasis on the skin, scalp, adipose tissue (fatty tissue) and whole blood. The second part of the book is devoted to analysis of the practical use of stem cells in treatments in the field of aesthetic medicine. There are presented the latest technologies including fat transfers and other autologous drugs treatments, detailing potential with side effects and treatment restrictions. Moreover, publication in part two in an extensive way presents the issue of stem cells of origin plant in the new, exciting era of biotechnology „sustainable weighted beauty”, currently referred to biotech beauty. Linking science and nature is the future of cosmetology, dermatology and related science.

Currently, cosmetology, trichology and dermatology are heading in the right direction, direction which is including a holistic approach to working with cosmetic clients or patients. Nevertheless, to be able to pursue them fully to implement, it is necessary to know the basic mechanisms of molecular processes that occur in the human body. In this respect it is essential to understand the extraordinary regenerative potential that stem cells show. In order to better understand molecular genesis of physiological processes such as aging or alopecia, it is necessary to approximate the interactions in terms of stem cells, skin microbiome, and gut microbiome as well approximation of the influence of the exposome on the modulation of skin health.

The book also covers the impact of diet on the functionality of stem cells in the thought of ancient Greek physicians – Dioscorides, author of De Materia Medica, and Hippocrates, the precursor of modern medicine, who emphasized the importance of diet in analogy to human health. It should be remembered that only a holistic approach promotes the success of aesthetic therapies.

Publication The role of stem cells in modern aesthetic medicine and cosmetology, due to its comprehensive approach, is addressed to students and practicing dermatologists, doctors operating in the field of aesthetic medicine, cosmetologists and trichologists as well as cosmetics production technologists. Professionals interested in the topic of stem cells will recognize this book as a valuable guide. Welcome to the world of stem cells.1
STEM CELLS – INTRODUCTION

1.1. THE HISTORY OF STEM CELLS IN A NUTSHELL

In the last decade, the results of research on stem cells, as well as therapies using them, present wide range of potential opportunities. The term stem cell, or more precisely called Stammzelle, in German, was created at the beginning of the 19th century. However, the concept of stem cells saw the day light for the first time daily in the 20th century thanks to scientists whose main research interests concerned embryonic development. In 1981 appropriate research methods were used to obtain embryonic stem cells in animal models (mice). A moment earlier, because in 1978, the presence of stem cells in humans was identified in umbilical cord blood. However, what’s interesting the idea of stem cells in human blood was established in 1909. And in 1981 appeared first research results on mouse embryonic parental cells. In 1995, sheep were first cloned from embryonic cells.

One of the milestones was the moment of undertaking the first human bone marrow capping, which took place in 1957. That progress was appreciated by awarding the Nobel Prize to Dr. Edward Donnall Thomas in 1990. This turned out to be a breakthrough period in the history of cloning, when in 1996 Dolly the sheep was born.

In turn, the discovery from 1981 had an impact on research devoted to specialized stem cells, which resulted The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2007. Three years later, a therapy based on human stem cells embryos was successfully used on patient with a spinal injury. What important, in 2011 markers of hematopoietic cells were discovered, as well as human stem cells obtained from the cloned embryo. Nowadays, stem cells have many applications in a lot of medicine’s branches, partly in the form of applied therapies, especially in the field of regenerative medicine. However, in essence most stem cells are subjected to advanced scientific and clinical researches.

In the field of cosmetology, stem cells from plant extract were used for the first time in 2008. It came from an Swiss apple tree Uttwiler Spätlauber. In 2020, Dr. Elaine Fuchs was awarded Canada Gairdner International Award for discovering the role of adults skin stem cells in the process of wound healing, inflammation and skin homeostasis, as well as in cancer processes.
