What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes are tiny messengers naturally released by stem cells that help signal skin cells to regenerate, repair, and produce more collagen. In aesthetics, exosomes are applied or injected to reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, and improve overall skin health. They're often used alongside microneedling, Morpheus8, or laser treatments to boost results and speed recovery.
Common treatment goals:
- Skin healing and recovery post-treatment
- Improving skin texture and tone
- Reducing redness or inflammation
- Supporting collagen production
- Enhancing the effects of other procedures
What to Expect
Exosomes are most commonly microneedled into the skin or applied immediately after microneedling, Morpheus8, or laser to enhance absorption. This allows them to penetrate deeply and trigger cellular regeneration. They may also be injected in some cases, depending on your goals. Standalone treatments have no downtime, but when combined with other procedures, the recovery will reflect the primary treatment.

What People Are Saying
I had exosomes after microneedling and the recovery was so much faster. My skin looked brighter within a few days.

I struggle with post-treatment redness and this calmed my skin so quickly. I'd definitely do it again.
