What Are Exosomes?
Exosome treatments are one of the most popular and beneficial “boosters” offered in medispas today — but what do you know about this cutting-edge breakthrough treatment?
An exosome is a pocket within a stem cell that contains growth factors, cytokines, proteins, and messenger RNA for cellular communication. When separated from the rest of the stem cell, exosomes can be used in a topical application to the skin in order to cut down on healing time and redness and promote cellular regeneration in the skin in addition to a variety of other benefits.
If you’re wondering if exosomes really work, the proof is in the results! In vitro testing shows that the BENEV exosome treatments we use here at Oceanside increase elastin production by 300% and fibroblast production by 180%. Fibroblasts are cells that secrete collagen proteins, helping to maintain the structural framework of skin tissue. Skin cells can easily uptake topically applied exosomes, making this a powerful and effective addition to treatments such as microneedling, microneedling with radiofrequency. IPL laser treatments, and CO2 laser treatments.
Exosomes’ benefits are wide-reaching on their own, as well. When used on the skin, exosome treatment results in:
- Reduction of age-related pigmentation
- Increased radiance
- More even tone
- Reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Visibly firmer and more youthful-looking skin
When applied as a scalp treatment, exosomes can:
- Hydrate and nourish the scalp
- Promote a health hair growth cycle
- Noticeably reduce hair shedding
