Exosome Therapy
Get the most out of your treatments
What is EXO|E?
The EXO|E rejuvenation system is a complete and specially formulated set of active, naturally-occurring plant-derived stem cells that contain a concentrated dose of exosomes, liposomes, growth factors and anti-inflammatory factors. When applied to the skin, these beneficial ingredients boost recovery and enhance the results of procedures like microneedling by stimulating the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid — the essential building blocks of a youthful complexion. EXO|E is a three-part treatment that can be added to any cosmetic procedure.
-
D|TOX — Hydrate & prep your skin at home for 5 days prior to an upcoming treatment.
-
EXO|E — Delivers a concentrated dose of healing cells, exosomes and growth factors for highly targeted and enhanced results. This is applied during your in office treatment.
-
RE|PAIR — Ten additional applications continued at home to help the skin heal and look more rejuvenated than ever.
The EXO|E skin care system is chemical-free, water-based and made in the USA, formulated to mimic the skin’s natural function to ensure perfect harmony. It also uses plant stem cell extracts, which are bioactive, biocompatible, and highly promising carriers of therapeutic agents that can be incorporated into specific cells.
What are exosomes?
Exosomes are small, nanosized structures that form inside a cell and contain some of its proteins, lipids and genetic information. They are naturally secreted into the blood by many different types of cells and act as messengers, traveling to other parts of the body to transfer the materials they contain and stimulate a desired response. When sent to damaged cells, these tiny messengers can also release growth factors to repair the damage, making them vital to the process of cell regeneration and tissue healing.
How do exosomes work?
Exosomes act as a delivery system for various rejuvenating ingredients, such as growth factors, which improve the health and appearance of your complexion. When used in skin care, exosomes have the ability to penetrate the skin and transfer their contents directly to the targeted cells, which can then be used to promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, enhance healing, improve hydration and more. They are also thought to have anti-aging benefits and mimic the natural signaling pathways between cells.
This potential for rejuvenation has made exosomes “the next big thing in skin care,” able to prepare the skin for procedures like microneedling, enhance treatment outcomes, and dramatically improve the recovery process for reduced downtime.
What is exosome therapy used for?
Exosomes can be combined with numerous treatments to improve the overall health and appearance of your skin. Some common concerns that can be addressed include the following:
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Skin laxity
-
Dull complexion
-
Uneven skin tone
-
Rough, bumpy skin texture
-
Dryness
-
Enlarged pores
-
Dark spots
-
Redness
-
Hair loss
Are exosomes safe to use?
Yes, exosome therapy is effective and well tolerated by most patients, even those with sensitive skin. It is, however, not able to be used if you have an aloe allergy
Is there any research behind this?
Research has shown the effectiveness of exosomes in treating skin concerns like aging, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, scarring and much more. One study conducted at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, demonstrated that exosomes achieved statistically significant improvements in overall skin health in as little as six weeks. Other studies and reviews demonstrate that exosomes boost collagen and elastin production to rebuild the dermal layer. In clinical trials, exosome therapy enhanced elastin by up to 300% and resulted in a six-fold increase in collagen, leading to noticeably smoother, firmer and more youthful skin.
EXO|E and Microneedling
All standard microneedling treatments at Aesthetic South utilize the concentrated EXO|E serum applied during the procedure. This allows the exosomes to be applied and absorbed into the skin, where they’ll deliver growth factors and other rejuvenating ingredients where they’re needed most, further boosting collagen production and improving the tone, texture and overall appearance of your complexion.
To further boost results, add in the D|TOX and RE|PAIR serums for home use 5 days before and after your treatment. This will further amplify results, decrease redness and inflammation, and help to minimize any downtime associated with treatment. Request this add on when you book your treatment.
