The miraculous properties of gold have been used for he alth purposes for thousands of years. This was done in ancient China, India, Persia, and also in Egypt, Greece and Rome. In the latter, gold compresses were used for venereal diseases, ulcers, hemorrhoids and mycosis.
Later history also knows many cases of chrysotherapy, i.e. treatment with gold s alts. Apparently, Izabela of Bavaria, by adding them to jam, treated her obesity in this way. In turn, the king of France, Louis XIV, treated his warts with oil with the addition of golden dust.
Gold in small amounts actually has excellent he alth properties, which we already know for sure, but in large amounts it becomes toxic and deadly for the body. In all we alth, then, as in everything else, a golden mean should be found, literally.
Gold - he alth properties
Gold has great antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Among the so-called home remedies for a long time, the method of rubbing barley with gold has been known, which brings significant relief.
Antibacterial properties of gold (and silver) are also eagerly used in dentistry.
On the other hand, dressings with the addition of gold promote wound healing, which is why they are an interesting alternative to sutures.
Other beneficial he alth properties? Gold is a kind of fuel for human physiology. It accelerates skin regeneration, as well as the natural production of collagen and elastin - hence its popularity in aesthetic medicine.
In addition, it has a beneficial effect on organs that have slightly slowed down their activity (e.g. the liver). Therefore, gold is worth … consuming!
For thisfor example, colloidal gold is intended. Since gold inhibits adverse processes in autoimmune diseases, it is also useful in the treatment of psoriasis, lupus, vitiligo and rheumatoid arthritis. However, the fastest results are obtained on the skin, hence the popularity of gold in cosmetic preparations and its valuable rejuvenating properties.
Colloidal gold - what is it?
Colloidal gold is a suspension of gold microparticles distributed in distilled water. Such a specificity is added not only to cosmetics, but also to food. Moreover, gold has a chance to make a great career in the superfoods category due to its beneficial influence on widely understood physiological processes. So you can rejuvenate yourself with gold in several ways!
Gold in cosmetics - rejuvenating properties
The legendary beauty Cleopatra knew exactly what she was doing - apparently she used masks with gold at night. Today we know that preparations with this precious metal have excellent rejuvenating properties for the skin.
First of all, they stimulate the natural regeneration processes, moisturize the skin, improve blood supply and oxygenation. And because they have a strong antibacterial effect, they also help fight acne and various inflammations. As if that was not enough, they improve skin firmness and smooth it.
There are more and more cosmetics with the addition of gold on the market. Scientists have been wondering for a long time how to introduce a noble raw material into cosmetics so that it can be evenly distributed on the skin. Contemporary achievements in the field of micronization, i.e. nanotechnologies, came with help.
In preparations - of course available at a fair price - we can find active and pure gold. It has excellent regenerating properties. Examples? It prevents the formation of wrinkles, and at the same time smoothes those already present. In addition, it is effective in the case of tired, stressed skin with clear signs of aging.
Preparations for the care of the eye area are great - good news for people working at the computer a lot.
It is also worth emphasizing that the active gold nanoparticles even reach the basal layer of the epidermis and motivate the natural process of skin moisturizing to work. In addition, they create a protective layer on the skin (a special film protecting against harmful external factors) and prevent skin infections (due to antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity).
Gold in aesthetic medicine
Thanks to its miraculous he alth and rejuvenating properties, gold doesa meteoric career in aesthetic medicine. The first treatments appeared in Turkey, and they quickly found their way to Japan, where care for a flawless complexion is an important element of culture and he alth. Today we will also meet them in Poland.
The most common treatments are of course with the use of cosmetics with the addition of gold nanoparticles and colloidal gold. However, the real hit is the treatment with golden threads, and more precisely the lifting of these threads.

Another beauty from ancient Egypt - Nefertiti (Nefertiti), wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten - also made good use of the properties of gold. Legends say that golden implants are hidden in her body. So you can say that everything has already been done, and the golden thread lifting treatment reaches back to proven methods.
What is it about? Well, thin surgical threads coated with gold (as thick as a hair) are inserted under the skin. With time, the "surgical" part dissolves and only a beneficial ore remains.
However, at an early stage, the threads form a kind of support under the skin, which firms it and tightens it properly. For a few days after the procedure, performed under local anesthesia, the skin remains slightly swollen, but after about three months, beneficial effects can be seen. Why? Due to the above-described properties of gold, it also creates good environments for the natural production of new cells.
In the area of the "frame" even new blood vessels are formed, so the skin works at full steam and rejuvenates itself perfectly. The gold particles additionally affect the fibroblasts so that they produce more collagen and elastin. In a word, the skin becomes almost like a newborn and you can "rejuvenate" up to 10 years!
This is also more or less the effect of golden threads. Contrary to appearances, the procedure does not reach cosmic prices, because we will spend several thousand zlotys on it. With a decade of operation and quick effects, it seems to be an excellent investment in longer youth.
