Exosomes for Skin

Exosomes for Skin

Is your skin losing its firmness and glow, with fine lines starting to show? Exosomes are tiny messengers that cells use to tell skin to repair and renew itself. Delivered with microneedling, they help your skin make fresh collagen, for firmer, smoother, brighter skin over a short course.

Best for fine lines, lost firmness, dullness and uneven tone.

How do exosomes work for skin?

Our exosomes come from trusted Korean and US makers, who produce them in laboratories from cells or plants. Microneedling opens tiny channels in the skin, so the exosomes reach the layer where collagen and elastin are made and signal it to repair and renew.

In a Korean trial, the side of the face treated with exosomes and microneedling showed fewer wrinkles, better elasticity, more hydration and more even pigment than microneedling alone, with no serious side effects. Reviews of other studies report similar gains.

Who shouldn’t have exosomes for skin?

It isn’t suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active acne, an infection or cold sore in the area, during cancer treatment, or if you tend to form raised scars. Your doctor checks this at your consultation.

Exosome skin treatment, step by step

  1. Free consultation: your doctor checks your skin and plans your course.
  2. Preparation: the skin is cleansed and numbing cream is applied for comfort.
  3. Microneedling: fine needles create tiny channels across the treatment area.
  4. Exosomes applied: the exosome product is worked into the freshly treated skin.
  5. Course: usually 3 sessions, about 3 weeks apart, then top-ups.

Results and recovery

Skin often looks calmer and glowing within days of the first session. Firmness, smoother lines and a more even tone build over the course, with the clearest change about six weeks after your last session. Top-ups every few months keep your skin at its best.

Expect redness, like mild sunburn, for one to two days, and possibly slight dryness as the skin renews. Most people are back to work the next day.

Exosomes: your questions answered

It depends on the product, Korean or US, the area treated and the number of sessions. Your doctor confirms the full price at your free consultation, before anything is done. Most people book a course of three, so ask for the course price.

If you want firmer, smoother, glowing skin with little downtime, yes, it is one of the most exciting new treatments. In a trial, adding exosomes to microneedling gave clearly better results than microneedling alone. For deep hollows, fillers work better.

Very little. Numbing cream is applied first, so most people feel light pressure or prickling during microneedling. The exosomes themselves feel cool and soothing.

Many people see a calmer, glowing complexion within days. Firmness and smoother lines build through the course, with the clearest change about six weeks after the last session.

The new collagen your skin makes lasts for months. A top-up session every few months, with daily sunscreen, helps keep your skin firm and glowing.

Studies report no serious side effects, only redness and mild dryness for a day or two. Because products differ, we only use exosomes from established Korean and US makers, and your doctor names the one used on your skin.

Not yet in the US: the FDA hasn’t approved an exosome product to treat any condition, though skin research is moving quickly. Your doctor will show you the Korean or US product chosen and explain where it comes from.

PRGF uses growth factors from your own blood. Exosomes come ready-made, so no blood sample is needed, and carry a wide mix of repair signals. Your doctor may recommend one, or combine them.

Profhilo hydrates and firms with hyaluronic acid. Exosomes focus on repair and renewal, so they suit tired skin, fine lines and uneven tone. Many people combine them for an all-round result.

They can help skin heal and even out. In a trial, adding exosomes to laser treatment for acne scars gave better results and quicker recovery. For deeper scars, see Microneedling RF.

Yes. For thinning or shedding hair, we add exosomes on top of a PRGF hair treatment in the same session. See exosomes for hair for how it works.

Yes, it is a lovely pre-wedding glow treatment. Start about two to three months before the day, so your course is finished, and have the last session at least a week before.
