Personalized skin-specific topical formulations containing conditioned medium obtained from cultures of fibroblasts has been developed. Unlike other topical formulations, these formulations are specific for the recipient-skin type specific, and conditioned medium is obtained from a subject with desired skin characteristics. For example, since African American skin is known to wrinkle less and later than Caucasian skin, conditioned medium may be obtained from African American skin for application to pale skin. In another embodiment, the fibroblasts are obtained from young skin for administration to older skin. In still another embodiment, the fibroblasts are obtained from skin that does not suffer from acne or discoloration, for application to skin that is prone to acne or discoloration. Examples of skin donor selection criteria include delayed wrinkling, small pores, resistance to sunburn, resistance to acne, uniform coloration or lack of blotching or age spots and good moisture retention.
