In 2003, the drug regulatory agency of the United States, the FDA approved the use of dentures made from castor oil, native Brazilian plant. The product, tested and manufactured in Brazil, is already used as a substitute for damaged bones in accidents and have low immune rejection. Now, castor bean (Ricinus communis) comes into play again as a new option for facial rejuvenation, using implants made under the skin to correct sagging. Gilberto Chierice, Institute of Chemistry, USP São Carlos and research coordinator with the prosthesis castor, initiated in 2003 a new search using the polyurethane polymer of castor oil in the form of wire aliasing, as subdermal implant, called Wire Lifting Bio.According to the researcher, the polymer molecules are very similar to fat molecules exist in the human body characteristics that make them biocompatible. 'Since the implants derived from petroleum and metal are seen as a strange artifact of the body and therefore at risk of rejection, "he explains. Another advantage of the implant is designed to induce the formation of collagen (a protein essential for tissue fibers and structures of the body) and eliminate the appearance of bacteria, when made into solid forms. The main objective of this research, which is part of the master's degree in Bioengineering medical Athanase Chrit dont, was to analyze the degree of inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue after receiving the implant wire castor oil. The wires were implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of mice under anesthesia, and patients with sagging facial skin. In the first case, we analyzed the tissue and cellular structures, and second, changes that arose from photographs taken preoperatively and postoperatively. Among the results, it was found that implantation led to the formation of fibroblasts - cells that produce connective tissue fibers, such as collagen. "The presence of castor mechanical wire tension and causes the healing reaction induces the formation of collagen fibers, in addition, this material, when implanted, produces no inflammatory reaction," explains the researcher. During the natural aging process, there is degeneration of proteins in the composition of the skin, such as collagen and elastin, resulting in loss of elasticity of the skin and underlying tissues.Among the factors that contribute to aging is the natural action of gravity, solar radiation, besides the contribution of genetic factors. According to the Brazilian Society of Aesthetic Medicine, Brazil is the vice-world champion in plastic surgery and botulinum toxin (Botox), trailing only the United States. Currently, many medical procedures performed in office provide improvements in appearance, without the hassle, risk and cost of plastic surgery. The product is already being tested in patients, but is awaiting certification of registration of the National Agency for Sanitary Vigilance Agency (Anvisa). Later, tests will be developed for deployment wire biological castor elsewhere in the body, to correct sagging of upper arms, buttocks, abdomens, thighs, and also in the treatment of stretch marks. The research was recognized as the best paper presented during the First World Congress of Aesthetic Medicine International Association of Aesthetic Medicine (ASIM) in Brazil in March 2004.

Mammon = facial rejuvenation !!!
Product derived from castor oil is a new option in facial rejuvenation.
