The word “placenta” harkens back to the days when our infant skin was delicate and we, under the loving protection of our mother’s wing, received everything essential for life without effort or a care in the world. Placenta cosmetics include products that help aging skin cells “remember” their lost youth and obtain the nutrition required for active division and growth “in a saucer,” just ”asreceived by infants.
The placenta is an organ onnecting the mother’s body and the developing-child during pregnancy. It is a wellspring of biologically-active beneficial compounds.
Sheep Placenta is used in the manufacture of cosmetic products in the Sheep Placenta line because it is the most compatible with human skin components.
Manufacturers achieve a high degree of extract purification using a high-tech extraction method. This method guarantees the complete safety of the yielded product. What’s more, all of the components determining the placenta’s considerable value are preserved.
The history of placenta rejuvenation dates back to 1912, when Professor Alexis Carrel (Switzerland) identified an active substance capable of restoring cells. A Swiss doctor Paul Niehans used Carrel’s experiments to design the treatment method with use of living cells. Thirteen years later, Japanese scientist Shan Dao succeeded in obtaining the extract of sheep placenta.
Placenta use started long before scientific discoveries:
• placenta was used as a rejeuvenating product as far back as the days of Cleopatra.The first scientific explanations of placental healing properties are found in the writings of Hippocrates and Avicenna;
• in China, placenta was known as “the boat on a violet river” on which an infant came into the world. When an infant was born, his afterbirth was collected and dried; if a severe disease developed, it was used to prepare an infusion that was then given to the patient. This remedy was considered extremely effective in stimulating the body’s own protective resources;
• after delivery, Russian midwifes recommended burying the placenta under a threshold (ancestral resting place) or in a pit in which a tree was then planted as a symbolic sibling of the born child.
Placental extract is a product obtained via hydrolysis (breaking up) of the placental tissue, which is a unique natural complex containing proteins, amino acids, polysaccharides, lipids, enzymes, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins and microelements.
