Abstract
Described herein are methods of using molded dehydrated placental compositions, and cosmetic compositions thereof. The compositions have numerous cosmetic applications.
Claims13
A cosmetic method for altering the appearance of a patient which method comprises identifying a perceived defect in the patient and altering said defect by placing a placental composition in or adjacent said defect in a manner to alter the appearance of the defect, wherein the placental composition comprises molded, micronized placental tissue.
A molded placental composition comprising micronized placental tissue which further comprises a biocompatible plasticizing polymer.
A cosmetic method for altering the appearance of a patient which method comprises administering a molded placental composition to a subject, wherein said molded placental composition has a defined size and shape comprising micronized placental tissue, and wherein said composition has a sufficient density and cohesiveness to maintain its size and shape for a defined period of time ex vivo and in vivo.
A method for producing a molded placental composition having a preselected disintegration rate and/or strength, said method comprising adjusting the compression force, compression rate, density and/or particle size such that the resulting molded placental composition has the preselected disintegration rate and/or strength.
A method for producing a molded placental composition having a preselected strength and/or stiffness, said method comprising adjusting the compression force, compression rate, density and/or particle size such that the resulting molded placental composition has the preselected strength and/or stiffness.
