The Scientific Issues Of EGF Skin Cream

By Iva Cannon


Skincare products commercially available are believed to have benefits on the skin in ways that are almost too impossible to believe. It is true that there had been a lot of positive feedbacks regarding these products based on testimonials. This is largely because of the formulas being put into these products by the manufacturers. The sad truth is that they could also have side effects on the body.

Transgenic farming has been one of the latest pharmaceutical techniques in which to acquire the components of making products for skin enhancements and other beauty products. This is the process involved in making the EGF skin cream. EGF means Epidermal Growth Factor. They say it replenishes and makes the user look younger.

But scientists have been alarmed at the effects of this new innovation. They fear that the transgenic way of acquiring the ingredients for this formula could contaminate other life forms and will affect agricultural crops. This is possible through pollination.

Some of these dangers include the risk of these genetically engineered plants to be pollinated to natural and wild plants. They can cause harm to these plants and the pollinators as well. This is also very risky to nearest agricultural crops. The biochemicals could cause different long term diseases to both plants, animals, and humans involved in the food chain.

EGF is composed of cytokine, a group of cells that communicate with one another in order to perform reconstruction and healing of the dermis and epidermis. In addition, it encourages cell growth which makes it faster for the skin to heal and to look more radiant. By the name, one can tell that it is really capable of rebuilding the epidermis.

Since it can reconstruct cellule, it can tighten the derma especially for older people. As a result, their wrinkles will lessen. But the fundamental function is not merely to hide or remove the wrinkles but to maintain the growth of the cells in the epidermis. Other products have exaggerated specifications written in their labels. But to be sure they are safe, consult your doctor immediately.

The characteristic of the product which is to boost cell growth is a factor that actually disturbs most scientists. This can be a serious threat and can cause cancer. The fact that it proliferates cellules, it can possibly multiply cancer cells as well. Although there is no direct effect, it poses a bigger threat to those who have cancer histories in the family.

This does not imply that it directly causes cancer. The scientists mean that it can multiply cellules of cancer very quickly. So, if a user of the product already has cancer cells developing without being aware of it, the proliferation could happen fast which will lead to a higher stage of cancer in just a matter of time.

Thus, to be safe, use those skincare products that are mild. Ask your dermatologist which moisturizer, lotion, or cream is best suited to your skin type. Expert opinion is highly recommended before trying out a new product for yourself. Another thing is, ageing cannot be stopped no matter how much you try. But you can start living a healthier and more active life.
