moderation.
If you do cut all sugars and go on a fat diet it is fine too. All refined sugars are harmful. Whole fruits are the exception because of other necessary nutrients in them of course. Refined fruit sugar is very bad too. "health foods" advertise as naturally sweetened with fruit sugar are marketing scam.
Also sugar industry lobbying for taking out natural fats out of foods and replacing them with sugars and unnatural flavors has been the biggest scam of last century. Read this: https://paleoleap.com/cholesterol-is-not-bad/

but it is a scar and it is raised
so what that mean ?????any scar specialist ? how is this possible????
every scar is different....im just qouting the research and i have scars with hairs also, so i was abit confused. Thats just their hypothesis but to me personally.. i think that is most likely a numbet of factors in scarring. Argh. Why cant we have furr lol
2 new patient images released. Some horrible injuries they are treating btw. The hand photo looks pretty good only after 7 weeks given how bad it looked prior. Still very red obviously as it heals hard to get a gauge on texture at this stage but doesnt look like much contraction.

Am I the only one who sees this as something big? I don't know much about burn scars, but those look like something that cannot be solved without skin grafts or other replacement skin. The fact that it looks like skin is regrowing is something that I believe is a game changer. And this is just 7 weeks out, when the wound looked to be down to the muscle.
Its hard to get a good indication from these images. These are horrific cases. We really need to see small defects and not so deep wounds to get a better understanding how it can help acne scars. This hand injury typically would require a skin graft so i think PolarityTe will be pretty chuffed about this. Skin Grafts could be a thing of the past soon. So skin is regenerating just how cosmetically pleasing is still unknown until we see final results.
And we still havent seen any images at 3 month stage. These are stated as early stage SkinTe healing. The hand image will be interesting to see at 3-6 months it has a lot of healing to go.
if Skinte is working its having to do a hell of a lot of work to these injuries for skin to make a comeback. How do we know acne scars wont be childs play for SkinTe? ....

It is very possible. I'm sorry that my English is not very good. You can continue to focus on this technology. But I think the skin gun is the most likely solution to the acne scar at present. Because it is a cell level, and it is naturally grown on the body, not by an external transplant. We can use laser or acid to create new, very shallow wounds at the scar, and then heal with a skin gun, which may fill the sunken skin.

And since skin disorders account for 40% of occupational-disease claims nationally, we also want help patients with skin defects, diseases and acne scarring.

But where do they offer this skin gun for cosmetic scars?
Dang... I appreciate everyone's optimism... But these pictures don't look so good.
Everyone should relax a bit. The new photos are early-stage healing on near worst-case scenario inuries (3rd degree burn scars with contraction). Honestly, the hand is pretty amazing. Does it look perfect? Obviously not, and who knows if it will continue to improve over time or not. But that healing alone would displace grafts for the simple reason that it looks better already and only requires a small biopsy of health skin as opposed to a split-thickness graft of roughly the same area as the wound.
It took much longer for the pigs to completely regenerate and honestly, if you look at the mid-stage healing photos of the pigs it doesn't look that dissimilar to man who had his hand treated. And that's not even an apples to apples comparison because the man's hand is still early in the healing process.
Granted, I think we all wanted to the first photos to be complete regeneration, but that was never going to be the case this early on. We're in the same situation we've been in for the past few months. We all just have to be patient and wait for the final results before passing judgement.
early stage blah blah...even if so...imagine for how many months you'll look like sh*t and hide before you get to the acceptable late stage end of the year...
Also, those bumpy islands of newly formed skin are supposed to smoothen and end up perfectly leveled?
Sell this idea to a cosmetic doctor and if they'll take the liability wake me up. Hope they'll give package discount for filling the wrinkles too...hello my zillionth birthday!
yeah let's not get our hopes up about this.
At best this looks like renova recell type stuff. Wow surprise surprise this shit was available since 2007 and never caught on. So why would this? It doesn't produce perfect skin at all. The skin looks really shiny and still scarred so I don't think its a good idea.
Honestly, RenovaCare pics are better. And the healing is MUCH quicker.
That being said, those patients had such terrible wounds that I don't know whether we should even draw any conclusions by looking at them.
We need a pic of a progress on a normal scar, not a 3rd degree burn.

But where do they offer this Renovacare in US? I can't see any cosmetic surgeons providing it for scars, and the website only advertises it for traumatic injuries.
The new images of Polarity don't look great at all. There is a lot of scar tissue but a lot of these wounds were bad. Some go deep enough into muscle and bone. There is something I don't understand about this company and that has to do with their OsteoTE product. They claim it regenerates bones. Broken bones heal without any scar tissue. There is a callus that forms and the bone regrows. Yes you might have a remnant behind of the bone fracture but who cares about that. Nobody can see that except when it gets revealed on an X-ray. What exactly is OsteoTE supposed to regenerate? Bone marrow? This is why I didn't buy into their claim of scarless healing.
Will those healed up wounds look better in a year from now, definitely but there will be evident scarring, turning into white unpigmentated skin over time judging from the pics. Off course, skin grafts were used here as a lot of these patients were in a life and death emergency.
Once again, scar prevention should happen from the early stages of healing not the later stages. A wound heals with granulation tissue which is a patchwork of disorganized collagen which eventually becomes scarring. The body will try after a few months to reorganize scar tissue into the basket wave pattern of healthy skin but it doesn't do a great job and the scar tissue remains indirectly. It could be that Polarity may have found a way to reorganize granulation tissue into the basket wave pattern of healthy skin at the later stages of healing. That still remains to be seen and judging from those pics, they are far off from their claim presently.
The margins they claim are due to the body's natural intention of healing by contracture by closing the wound slowly and slowly. It seems SkinTE attemps to close the wound from the center and slowly expands outwards. With the body using contraction and SkinTE expanding outwards, this creates a margin as the body is unable to blend the two together.
Come on stop stalling and making excuses.
These results are terrible. And how this will work for Acne scarring is beyond my imagination.
As I said before, there will have to be several paradigm shifts in medicine and
biotechnology before such a HOLY GRAIL of cosmetic surgery is going to be introduced.
I think its time to make peace with my scars and come back in 10 years.
We will need things like CRISPR-gene editing optimized, 3D bioprinting scaled up so that it can synthesize
new skin at an affordable and accessible rate.
WE need companies that deal with BIOREACTORS for synthesizing new msenchymal cells
that are the real building blocks of this. Plus a whole series of epigenetic trials.
This is ltierally 10-50 years of research and we have only just begun with these technologies this past year.
A Quantum computer will be necessary to decode the literally ZILLIONS of possible interactions
occuring between genes and environment.
THATS HOW YOU WILL FINALLY BE ABLE TO SYNETHSIZE NEW SKIN OR PERMANENTLY HEAL ACNE SCARS.
SORRY FOLKS, TIME FOR A DOSE OF THE TRUTH. I've been studying this stuff.
It will happen. But not for 10-50 years. And Polarity TE is just a sad version of renovacare with a big does of marketing money behind it. Surgeons are not scientists andall that Polarity has going for it a big dose of VC capital that is giving it a marketing push.
INVESTORS GO SHORT ON POLARITY, TRUST ME. I"VE STUDIED THE SCIENCE. See you guys in 2029.
I looked at the hand pic and at first i was abit like err that looks crap! Someone like that hand would need a dermal matrix with skin graft on top to get any sort of decentish outcome normally. BUT then i rememberer what my 3rd degree burn looked like after 6 weeks and with a dermal matrix, and i tell you....the texture of that hand is amazing! You can see it has some laxity to it and no contracture. At 6 weeks the skin will be remodelling. That looks better than my skin graft with is 9 months old which btw has no laxity. Honestly. Dont lose hope. Im still hoping it will show good results atleast.

That's what we've been saying. It isgreat for desperate cases of skin graft, but it is not going to disappear scars, norcosmetic doctors would find it worthwhilefor themselves.
