Revitalization: The History of Revitalization

Established in 1931, Clinique La Prairie quickly gained worldwide renown thanks to the work of Professor Paul Niehans, a pioneer in cellular therapy, who injected fresh cells from lamb fetuses into his patients. Since that time, the Revitalization has evolved significantly. As a preventative of aging or as an adjuvant for certain chronic pathologies and viral diseases, it has been adopted by tens of thousands of patients, including celebrities.
