Cosmetics companies, such as Estee Lauder, Helene Curtis, and Mary Kay Cosmetics, use babies' foreskins in their products. There is a product called TNS Recovery Complex by SkinMedica whose face cream costs over US$100 for a 0.63 oz bottle and is used by many high-profile celebrities (such as Oprah Winfrey and Barbara Walters) as an alternative to cosmetic surgery.
It happens to be made from that discarded piece of skin that some parents opt to have removed from their newborn baby boys before they leave the hospital.
It’s been talked about enthusiastically on ‘The Oprah Show’ where it was announced that this new product which boosts collagen production and can rejuvenate skin contains an ingredient “engineered” from human foreskin cells.
Oprah Winfrey YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER than to promote unethical products on your show and your website. Shame on you Oprah for using your influence to promote and advocate circumcision to make your ageing skin look good at the expense of a baby boy’s most sensitive part, his foreskin.
Circumcision is a multi billion dollar industry in
It is estimated that between the surgery and the foreskin's resale value, each foreskin is worth approximately $100,000.
The number crunchers estimate the developed world's market for human-skin constructs is somewhere between $1 billion and $2 billion for the treatment of burns alone; for the treatment of chronic wounds (diabetic ulcers, pressure sores, and venous ulcers), the market is roughly $10 billion.
Advanced Tissue's flagship skin-construct, Dermagraft (described on their website as “manufactured from human fibroblast cells derived from newborn foreskin tissue”), sells for $3,000 per square foot, harvesting 250,000 square feet of Dermagraft from one foreskin alone.
The math translates theoretically into a $750,000,000 transaction, which is astounding, outrageous and atrociously sickening….Is it not?
