This is a giant load of horse shit lol. Firstly there's no way that dead skin cells could be biologically active in order to even be an active ingredient. Secondly, it's just common sense that medically they'd never get their hands on removed foreskin. This is some futurama type parody shit right here

Culturing cells from living cells is not the same as cloning.

"It should be noted, however, that the makers of SkinMedica insist no actual human tissue is included in their final product" Because it would be a biohazard for one, and abhorrent.

Once it was developed they no longer need any foreskin cells. It's the same as the recent advent of creating "human embryos" for the stem cells without actually using human embryos.
