What Are Exosomes?

Exosomes are tiny, naturally occurring particles released by cells in your body. Think of them as microscopic messengers that cells use to communicate and transfer important substances, including proteins, fats, and genetic material.

Here’s a simple breakdown:

  • What they are: Small bubble-like structures (vesicles), about 30-150 nanometres in size, produced by almost every cell type, including skin cells.
  • Where they come from: Exosomes are made naturally by cells, and can come from a variety of sources, including human cells, animal cells, and plants. In aesthetic and regenerative medicine, exosomes derived from plants are increasingly used because they are naturally biocompatible, non-immunogenic, and comply with UK regulations. These plant-based exosomes are considered safe and effective for topical use, particularly in skin and hair treatments.
  • How they function: They carry important molecules like proteins, fats, and RNA, helping cells communicate, repair tissues, and regulate processes in the body.
  • Their role in health: Exosomes help with healing, tissue regeneration, immune responses, and maintaining healthy skin and hair.
  • Clinical applications: Because exosomes naturally carry beneficial substances, scientists and doctors are researching ways to harness their potential in treatments and diagnostics, especially for skin rejuvenation and hair restoration.

 

Why Do Exosomes Matter?

Exosomes have a unique ability to influence other cells. For example, they can stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen or calm an overactive immune response in inflamed skin. They support processes like:

  • Wound healing
  • Tissue regeneration
  • Immune regulation
  • Anti-ageing

 

In Simpler Terms: Imagine exosomes as small packages carrying blueprints for healing. They travel from one cell to another, delivering the instructions needed to repair, restore and renew damaged tissue.

Where Do Exosomes Come From?

Exosomes can originate from various natural sources, including human, animal, and plant cells. They are found in almost every type of cell and play a critical role in communication and regeneration processes throughout the body.

How Do Exosomes Work in the Body?

Exosomes act as your body’s microscopic messengers, carrying essential nutrients and signals between cells. They specifically target areas needing repair or healing, delivering their cargo precisely where required.

Here’s how exosomes benefit your body:

  • Cellular Communication: Deliver important genetic material and proteins to help cells communicate effectively.
  • Skin Regeneration: Boost the natural production of collagen and elastin, helping your skin become firmer, smoother, and healthier.
  • Inflammation Control: Reduce excessive inflammation, promoting balanced immune responses without disrupting healthy functions.
  • Barrier Repair: Strengthen and restore your skin’s natural protective layers (epidermis and dermis), improving skin resilience.

 

Exosomes function like intelligent delivery systems—they identify areas of inflammation or cellular damage and release their healing substances exactly when and where they’re needed.

Clinical Research: What the Evidence Says

Recent research continues to support the growing role of exosomes in dermatology and aesthetic medicine. A comprehensive 2024 study published in Nano TransMed explored the therapeutic and cosmetic applications of exosomes, offering insight into how they interact with skin and hair cells to support regeneration and healing.

According to the study:

  • Stimulate Fibroblast Activity: Exosomes enhance the proliferation and migration of fibroblasts, which are critical for tissue regeneration and wound healing.
  • Enhance Collagen Production: They support increased collagen synthesis, contributing to improved skin firmness and a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Reduce Inflammation: Their anti-inflammatory effects help manage conditions such as acne, rosacea, and dermatitis.
  • Support Hair Follicle Function: By activating dermal papilla cells, exosomes may improve hair density and scalp health in cases of hair thinning or loss.

 

Clinical Applications at Our Clinic

  • Microneedling with Exosomes: The study reinforces that combining exosomes with microneedling can significantly improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity.
  • Topical Skincare Products: Exosome-based serums and creams are being explored for their ability to deeply hydrate, improve pigmentation, and accelerate skin recovery post-treatment.
  • Hair Restoration Treatments

 

At our clinic, we harness these science-backed benefits of exosomes to help you achieve healthy, revitalised skin and hair.

What Can Exosomes Be Paired With?

To enhance results, we often combine exosomes with:

  • Microneedling – Boosts collagen and improves absorption
  • PRP – Dual regenerative therapy
  • Polynucleotides – Powerful synergy for tear troughs and barrier repair
  • Moxi – Speeds recovery and boosts outcomes
  • Morpheus8 – Enhances skin tightening and repair

 

This integrated approach yields faster recovery, deeper tissue transformation, and longer-lasting effects.

The Procedure: What to Expect

Consultation – Every treatment begins with a full consultation, including a detailed history and a skin or scalp assessment. This allows our clinicians to determine suitability and tailor the protocol to your specific needs.

Preparation – On the day of treatment, your skin or scalp will be gently cleansed. A topical numbing cream may be applied to minimise discomfort, especially if microneedling or injections are involved.

Delivery Method – Exosomes may be delivered via:

  • Microneedling for enhanced skin rejuvenation
  • Post-laser application, such as after Moxi or Morpheus8, to accelerate healing and enhance results

Aftercare – Downtime is minimal, but we recommend following the aftercare provided to you for the treatment you are having

You may experience some mild redness, sensitivity, or swelling depending on the treatment, but this usually resolves within 12-48 hours. Many patients notice improvements in skin tone and texture within the first week, with ongoing benefits developing over the next 4-6 weeks.

Safety and Side Effects

Exosome therapy is considered safe:

  • Cell-free, so no immune rejection
  • Suitable for sensitive skin
  • Minimal risk of inflammation or bruising

 

Mild side effects may include:

As with many skin treatments, mild and temporary side effects may occur depending on the method of delivery (for example, Moxi or Morpheus8). These can include:

  • Redness lasting 12-48 hours
  • Mild tenderness or swelling
  • Temporary dryness or peeling

Exosome FAQs

What is the purpose of exosomes?

Exosomes serve as natural messengers that facilitate cell-to-cell communication. In aesthetic medicine, they help deliver growth factors and healing signals to damaged or ageing skin cells, promoting repair and regeneration at a cellular level.

Are exosomes legal in the UK?

Yes. We only use UK-approved, GMP-certified exosome products at Omniya that comply with MHRA regulations and professional medical guidelines.

Do exosomes really work?

Clinical studies are showing promising results, with research demonstrating improvements in skin elasticity, hydration, pigmentation, and collagen synthesis when exosomes are combined with treatments like microneedling. However, more research is needed to establish long-term efficacy and optimal treatment protocols.

Are exosomes better than PRP?

Exosomes offer several advantages: they provide standardised, consistent potency from controlled sources; they don’t require blood draws; and they’re suitable for patients who cannot undergo PRP. However, combining both treatments often provides superior results.

How much do exosomes cost?

Exosomes are treated as an add on (to a recommended treatment). The cost of an Exosome add on is: £300

Custom quotes can be based on extent and number of vials needed.

Where can I inject exosomes?

Exosomes cannot be injected under the skin in the UK. Instead, they are applied topically after procedures that create tiny punctures in the skin.

What foods are exosomes in?

While exosomes are naturally present in various plant-based foods, dietary exosomes don’t provide the concentrated therapeutic benefits needed for aesthetic treatments. Our medical-grade plant-derived exosomes are specially processed and concentrated for optimal therapeutic effect.

How quickly do exosomes work?

Visible results often appear within 1-2 weeks, but deeper changes (e.g. collagen) take 4-8 weeks. Hair regrowth may require 2-3 months.

How often can I have exosome therapy?

The frequency of exosome therapy depends on the treatment used to apply it. In many cases, exosomes are applied every 2-4 weeks as part of an initial course. After this, maintenance sessions are typically recommended to support long-term results. Your practitioner will advise on the best schedule based on your skin concerns and the procedure involved.

What's the difference between exosomes and PRP?

PRP is made from your blood and can vary in quality. Exosomes are purified from controlled sources and are consistent, often more potent.

Exosome Treatment Expectations

Immediate: Glow, hydration, pore refinement

Short-Term: Pigmentation reduction and collagen stimulation

Long-Term: Firmness, scar fading, and hair density improvement

Maintenance

Repeat sessions are typically required for best results, and individual treatment plans will be recommended based on your needs and goals.
