“Pars Hayyan laboratory, as one of the largest manufacturers of health and cosmetic products in the Middle East, plays a significant role in increasing people's access to this group of products,” said Mohammadreza Shahini, the managing director of Pars Hayyan Pishtaz company.
“The laboratory has more than 150 types of specialized products related to health and care of skin, hair, mouth and teeth, which can compete with foreign samples in terms of quality,” he added.

Earlier this year, a technological company in Iran had also started using nanomaterials in producing anti-pathogen ointment and also creams to reduce the appearance of pimples on the body.
Ebrahim Akbarzadeh, the managing director of a technology company and a professor of Khajeh Nasir Toosi University of Technology (KNTU), said that his company has received a nanoscale certificate for gold, silver and iron nanoparticles, adding, “These nanomaterials are sold to various companies for use in their products.”
“In addition to the production of these nanomaterials, we tried to make products ourselves. Considering the positive effect of gold nanoparticles in production of collagen for skin rejuvenation, we have developed a formulation for the production of a cream, which is currently in the process of receiving licenses from the Food and Drug Organization,” he added.
“We also used silver nanoparticles to formulate creams with anti-pathogen properties and reducing pimples on the body,” Akhbarzadeh went on to say.
