| The shopping channels where I live (I'm in NY), HSH, Shopnbc, and QVC are now each offering products with stemcells. The HSN product is by Serious Skin Care, the Shopnbc by Isomers, and the QVC by Dr. Denese. Soon, because I am an addict, I will have all three in my house, sigh. . . |

This was discussed very recently here but I cant seem to find the thread. Try a search for apple stem cell.
I just started using a product with this ingredient from Garden of Wisdom. Too soon to say if its making a difference but I'm thinking of it more as prevention anyway. |

Now, once you start using them your going to have to let us know which one works the best 
I too am addict and I have to start on the 12 step program. It's hard when I get on this forum. I had to back away for sometime. I think I have more control now... |

Some of my two faced co-workers would probably have more luck testing all the various skin products
personally, I can only try so many at once

My problem is I use so many products, it is difficult for me to properly review many of them! |

Once again, I question those photographs. The degree of tension on the skin in the two first images in the 40-year-old make it look like she is scrunching her face up. Also, it is well understood that when subjects self-evaluate, they almost always see an improvement. I see way more than a 27% reduction from photos 1 to 4...more like 80%. That too makes me question the validity of the images. One more point: these images are not shot in a consistent light or from a consistent camera distance.
Does this new technology work? I couldn't say, but when the credibility of "supporting" images is questionable, it makes me wonder... |

I agree with Antonia. The photos show a huge improvement - enough to make me question the product. And, a huge 2nd on the comment regarding people self-evaluating and seeing improvement. |

| You can tell that in the first photos, the people are squinting. The site says you get a money back guarantee. It's not your simple return process. You need a RA # and who knows what other kinds of hoops you have to jump through to get your money back. I just love websites selling products with scientific claims use people in lab coats and lab background to make it look better then what it might be...my son could make a site like that, with fancy grafts and such and actually sell you jars of oil of olay just in different jars with private lables. I just saw that at the IBS show where you buy a companies product but put your own lable on it for cheap and mark it up 200%. |

I think that is a very common occurrence, probably more so than many people think. |

| There's so much buzz around at the moment about human stem cell research and the benefits it's going to provide that I think they're just jumping on the band-waggon and using a buzz word to sell their product. |

| I think these products with the words "stem cell" are a total waste of money. At some point in time there has to be enough of us cruising all the forums and getting educated about products that these companies won't sell one jar. |

| I don't know about those B & As. They're all smiling in the first pictures and than in 2,3,4 the ladies are smiling less and less and no wrinkling at the crows feet. Doesn't prove anything. |
