We use an extremely rare species of Swiss apple called the Uttwiler Spatlauber. The trees are so rare that there are reportedly only 20 trees left in the world. Initially these apples were heading towards extinction, because they lacked the flavor desired for agricultural cultivation. However, the surprising quality of these apples is that they can stay fresh without refrigeration or any preservative for periods lasting up to 4 months.

Recognizing the preservative value was the first step towards unlocking this ingredient’s true potential. After further study, it was observed that the tree displayed remarkably fast regeneration and healing abilities. The long lasting lifespan and quick regeneration is credited to the apple’s stem cells, which carry the provision for such qualities within the cells genetic structure. Scientists we re able to cultivate the apple’s stem cells which are now available as a patented liposomal preparation called Phytocelltec Malus Domestica. This preparation incites preservation and regenerative properties in human skin stem cells.

Human skin stem cells (epithelial stem cells) replenish and maintain the natural balance of cells within the epidermis layer of the skin. They also regenerate tissue damaged from injury or exposure. Unfortunately with age, the number of these stem cells decreases and they slow their ability to divide and repair. This is due to a process called senescence. Senescence is the biological slowing down of cellular division as dictated by stem cells and genetic instruction. It is a sort of biological clock and a natural component of aging.

PhytoCellTec Malus Domestica works by delaying the senesance in epithelial skin stem cells. In effect the Apple’s long-lasting stem cells endow their senescence delaying instructions into the newly incited skin cells. This results in newer, stronger and longer lasting skin cells, more resistant to UV exposure and all around healthier.

Based in a hydrating Seaweed extract and Hyaluronic Acid base, this incredible serum, is a pioneering and must-have addition on the journey to younger looking skin.
