In the world of aesthetic medicine, scientific advances never cease to amaze us. One of the most innovative and promising treatments is the use of exosomes, small extracellular particles that play a fundamental role in cell regeneration and facial rejuvenation. What exactly are exosomes? How do they work, and what are their benefits in the aesthetic field? Here, we tell you everything.
What are exosomes?
Exosomes are microscopic particles produced by almost all cells in the human body. These extracellular vesicles act as “biological messengers,” transporting molecular information, such as proteins, lipids, and RNA, between cells. They are essential in cellular communication and play a key role in regeneration processes, tissue repair, and even inflammation regulation.
Exosomes in aesthetic treatments
In the field of facial rejuvenation, exosomes have been adapted for advanced treatments that leverage their natural properties to improve skin health and appearance. They use exosomes derived from safe sources, such as plant stem cells, which are highly effective in stimulating cell regeneration.
How do exosomes work on the skin?
When applied in aesthetic treatments, exosomes penetrate the deeper layers of the skin and release their load of growth factors, messenger RNA, and other regenerative molecules. This process triggers:
- Cell repair: They help repair cells damaged by aging, the sun, or external agents.
- Collagen and elastin stimulation: They promote the production of these essential proteins for firm and elastic skin.
- Inflammation reduction: They mitigate redness and irritation, promoting more even skin.
- Deep hydration: They improve the skin’s ability to retain water, giving it a fresh and radiant appearance.
Benefits of exosome treatment
Exosome treatments are ideal for those seeking non-invasive facial rejuvenation. Among their main benefits are:
- Deep regeneration: They revitalize the skin from within, improving its texture and tone.
- Wrinkle reduction: They diminish fine lines and wrinkles.
- Post-treatment repair: They are ideal for complementing other aesthetic procedures such as laser, microneedling, or peels, as they accelerate skin recovery.
- Natural results: They provide a subtle yet noticeable rejuvenating effect, maintaining facial harmony.
- Safety and efficacy: Being biological products derived from stem cells, they have a high safety profile.
How are exosomes obtained or produced?
Exosomes used in aesthetic treatments can be derived from different safe and effective sources. They are mainly extracted from:
- Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC): These cells have a high regenerative capacity, and their exosomes can transfer “rejuvenating signals” to aging cells, promoting cell regeneration.
- Plant-based sources: Some solutions use exosomes derived from plants such as Centella Asiatica. These carefully isolated molecules are extremely effective and safe, as they contain no animal ingredients or bacteria.
Composition of exosomes
Exosome-based products are usually presented in ampoule format with two main components:
Ampoule 1: Lyophilized exosomes (50 mg)
- Exosomes derived from Centella Asiatica, lavender, tea tree, and cica.
- Collagen.
- Lyophilized plant powder (5 billion particles / 986,000 ppm).
Ampoule 2: Activator with amino acids (5 ml)
- Polynucleotides.
- Hyaluronic acid.
- Amino acids.
- Glutathione.
- Vitamins.
Exosome application process
The exosome treatment is quick and simple. It is performed in our aesthetic clinic under the medical supervision of Dr. Aurora Reig. The usual steps include:
- Initial evaluation: A specialist analyzes the patient’s skin to determine the most suitable approach.
- Skin preparation: The area to be treated is cleaned, and if necessary, a topical anesthetic is applied to minimize discomfort.
- Exosome application: Through microneedles, micro-puncture, or injections, depending on the area to be treated.
- Post-treatment: It is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure and follow the specialist’s instructions to optimize results.
Additional benefits and uses
Exosomes are not only effective in facial rejuvenation but also offer solutions for various skin conditions:
- Alternative to steroid medications: For treatments of atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne vulgaris, rosacea, or folliculitis.
- Antioxidant properties: They limit free radical activity, reducing oxidative stress and slowing down skin aging.
- Radiance effect: They help improve the complexion of skin prone to discoloration.
Exosomes and PRP
One of the great advantages of exosomes is that they can be combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance their effects. In this case, exosomes can be mixed with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), further amplifying the benefits for the skin.
PRP is a treatment that uses the patient’s own blood plasma, concentrating platelets and growth factors that promote cell regeneration and tissue repair. When exosomes are combined with PRP, the benefits of both are added, creating a more comprehensive treatment. While PRP provides the body’s natural growth factors to stimulate repair and regeneration, exosomes offer an additional load of repair and regeneration molecules from cellular origin, enhancing the rejuvenation process.
How does the combination of exosomes and platelet-rich plasma work?
PRP, when injected into the skin, activates collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture and firmness. By mixing it with exosomes, the healing and cellular regeneration process is optimized, as exosomes provide genetic information that enhances cellular response and accelerates regeneration. This combined treatment not only stimulates skin repair more quickly but also provides longer-lasting results.
The exclusivity of the exosome and PRP combination in our clinic
At Dr. Aurora Reig’s Clinic, we offer an exclusive treatment that combines exosomes with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), taking facial rejuvenation results to an unprecedented level. This cutting-edge combination not only significantly improves skin quality but also enhances regenerative effects, making it a unique and effective option for our patients.
PRP uses the patient’s own blood plasma, concentrating growth factors that stimulate cell regeneration. When combined with exosomes, which provide repair and regeneration molecules from cellular origin, the rejuvenation process is further optimized. This synergy accelerates skin regeneration, improves texture and firmness, and delivers longer-lasting and more natural results.
Benefits of the exosome and PRP combination
- Intensive rejuvenation: The combined action improves the overall appearance of the skin, combating wrinkles, sagging, and loss of radiance.
- Greater collagen stimulation: Exosomes work synergistically with PRP growth factors, accelerating collagen production, essential for maintaining youthful skin.
- Accelerated recovery: By combining treatments, cellular regeneration and skin repair are accelerated, reducing recovery time.
- Longer-lasting effect: Results tend to be more permanent, as the combination of both treatments activates deeper rejuvenation processes.
When are results visible?
Results are progressive. Many people notice improvements in skin texture and radiance within a few days, while the most visible effects, such as wrinkle reduction and firmness, become noticeable in the weeks following treatment.
Application areas
The treatment can be applied to areas such as:
- Face.
- Neck.
- Décolleté.
- Hands.
