Abstract

Among all cells, stem cells show unique properties. They are able to self-renew for an unlimited time and differentiate into specialized cells. Most of the cosmetic products describing the presence of plant stem cells in their composition actually contain extracts from stem cells. Stem cells extracts are not alive cells and the properties of the cosmetics products are related to content of secondary metabolites of these cells, which have antioxidant, anti-aging, and skin regeneration stimulating activity. The article discusses selected examples of the use of plant stem cells in cosmetology and regenerative medicine.

Keywords:
