A controversial anti-aging injectable made from donated human skin tissue is gaining attention in South Korea, where the treatment is marketed as a way to improve skin texture and elasticity.
The injectable, known as Elravie Re2O, is made using skin recovered from deceased donors. The tissue is processed to remove cells and genetic material, leaving behind a collagen- and elastin-rich framework known as the extracellular matrix (ECM), which is purified and formulated into tiny particles for injection.
