Stem cell–conditioned media as a potential antiaging technology in skin care

Stem cell conditioned media (SCCM) is gaining increasing interest and is a promising prospect in the field of regenerative medicine. The beneficial effects of stem cell therapy on damaged tissue have shown to be accredited to their ability to secrete trophic factors, rather than their capacity to differentiate into the needed cells. Various studies on stem cell–derived conditioned media from various cell lines, such as adipose-derived stem cells and bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells, have demonstrated tissue repair in various conditions that involved tissue damage.
