The Controversy Of EGF Skin Cream

By Iva Cannon


There are so many skincare products out on the market these days and they all offer derma protection and enhancements. These contain formulas that people may not understand. They could have side effects but many are not aware of it.

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 despite the incredible effects of this innovation, scientists warn that this could cause some health issues. It begins in the plant pollination. They have highlighted the effect of these genetically engineered plants on wild plants and agricultural crops.

If the pollinators pollinate the genetically engineered plants, they could transfer the chemicals to wild plants and crops. This will endanger the health of humans and animals who are the final consumers in the food chain. Thus, if this is possible, it could also be possible that the EGF will have a direct negative effect on the ones who will use it.

EGF is a cytokine and it is composed of a group of cells constantly communicating with each other in order to proliferate especially in times of healing wounds. EGF contains growth factors allowing the derma to reconstruct. Judging by its name, its capabilities rely on cell growth mainly on the epidermal part.

Thus, manufactures have insisted that this has a good effect especially on adult men and women who have wrinkles. The product has the ability to tighten the skin, consequently removing those unwanted wrinkles. However, this is not an anti aging product and it does not concentrate solely on the removal of wrinkles.

Scientists have been constantly warning people through their studies that although there are so many positive feedbacks regarding the product, there could be a side effect waiting to be discovered. It cannot be easily determined because it happens within and it happens fast. It has been found that EGF could stimulate the proliferation of cancer cells.

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.
