What are Exosomes?

Exosomes are tiny, naturally occurring vesicles derived from stem cells that play a crucial role in cell communication and regeneration. In skincare, they are used for their powerful ability to repair and rejuvenate skin at the cellular level. Packed with growth factors, proteins, and other bioactive molecules, exosomes help boost collagen production, reduce inflammation, and accelerate skin healing. When applied after treatments like microneedling, exosomes amplify the skin’s natural repair process, leading to enhanced texture, improved tone, and a more youthful radiance. This cutting-edge treatment offers a non-invasive way to achieve long-lasting, radiant skin rejuvenation.

Prior to the procedure, the treated area is cleansed and a thin layer of a topical gel is applied to numb the skin. The doctor will apply a sterile cartridge-tip with 12 microneedles to a handheld device. The device will be pressed gently across the skin, gliding in one direction until the entire area has been treated. The feeling is comparable to sandpaper moving over the skin. The procedure will result in tiny holes, known as microchannels, on the skin which will close almost immediately, triggering a healing response. The exosomes are then smoothed onto the skin for absorption. This results in renewed skin, including a thickened dermis, which will soften the appearance of lines, wrinkles and scars.

Microneedling with exosomes offers several key benefits that enhance the treatment experience. Exosomes can accelerate the skin’s healing process post-microneedling, significantly reducing downtime and improving overall results. Additionally, the growth factors found in exosomes promote collagen production, further enhancing the rejuvenation effects of the procedure. They also increase moisture retention, resulting in plumper, more radiant skin, while helping to soothe any redness and irritation commonly associated with microneedling.
