Exosome Therapy is an innovative approach to skin rejuvenation that has been scientifically proven to:
Exosomes are natural nanoparticles released by almost all cells in the human body, including skin cells.
They contain various biological materials making them a safe and trusted option for skincare including:
Think of exosomes as messengers — carrying and delivering critical information and factors to cells to defeat ageing and increase collagen for bouncy and youthful skin.
Exosomes are typically applied topically to the skin. They come in serum or gel consistency.
However, due to their nanoparticle nature, they cannot independently reach the deep skin layers.
Their effectiveness can only be realised after a medical device treatment creates microscopic wounds in the skin.
These entry points allow the exosomes to be fully absorbed, reaching deep within the skin to activate its rejuvenation potential.
Exosome Therapy harnesses the body's natural ability to heal itself and reverse the effects of premature ageing symptoms like wrinkles, skin laxity and dehydrated skin.
When exosome is delivered deep into the skin, it jumpstarts the skin's natural healing ability, allowing it to rebuild itself from within.
They can even reduce symptoms of eczema and keloids[2].
Exosomes can treat wrinkles by encouraging skin regeneration, boosting collagen synthesis, and rendering antioxidant protection.
Exosomes contain angiogenic capabilities, promoting wound healing and supplying oxygen-rich blood to organs and tissues.
Exosomes are valued in regenerative aesthetics medicine[3] and as effective anti-ageing treatments[4] because they improve the skin's healing and rejuvenation process, leading to better results after treatment.
The use of exosomes can lead to improved skin health and longevity, including noticeable enhancements in skin texture, pore size, hydration, clarity, and firmness.
Exosomes can decrease skin inflammation and promote fibroblast activity to produce collagen.
Ongoing studies have shown positive outcomes that exosomes can improve hair restoration.
Regenerative aesthetics is a part of regenerative medicine that focuses on improving and revitalising the skin without surgery.
Emphasises the use of natural ingredients and advanced medical technologies
Activates the body's natural healing processes
Results in a more youthful appearance and improved long-term skin health
Targets weakened cells that struggle to restore damaged tissue by enhancing the body's innate repair systems
Stimulates cell-to-cell communication to trigger rejuvenation and repair
Counters the effects of intrinsic ageing
Exosomes are vital in regenerative aesthetic medicine because they address the root causes of skin ageing and help maintain overall tissue balance[5].
As we get older, our skin cells deteriorate, our bodies produce fewer exosomes, and our collagen production decreases.
Ageing signs such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and drooping facial features become more apparent.
Exosome Therapy replenishes exosomes in the body, rejuvenates older ones, and activates dormant skin cells.
This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, aids wound healing, and reduces pigment development.
Regenerative aesthetic treatments provide a long-term anti-ageing and skin longevity strategy for patients who want to naturally improve their skin health from within.
Radiofrequency microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment.
It involves using a specialised handheld device to create tiny punctures in the skin.
This device contains grids of gold-plated, surgical-grade, ultra-fine needles that penetrate the skin at depths ranging from 0.5mm to 3mm.
A burst of radiofrequency energy is transmitted through fine needles to targeted skin layers, stimulating the body's natural healing response and increasing collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Bio-stimulator injectables promote collagen growth and address facial volume loss over time by rehydrating the deeper layers of the skin, resulting in skin tightening and lifting.
These injectables contain biostimulants that can slow down skin ageing.
Biostimulants are fluids that contain collagen-stimulating ingredients and trigger the body's own self-regeneration mechanisms.
Some examples of bio-stimulator injectable brands in Singapore are Profhilo, Rejuran, Juvelook, Lenisna, and Gouri.
Shields the skin cells from oxidative stress, which can lead to cell damage.
Treats autoimmune and inflammatory diseases by affecting immune cell functions, reducing inflammation, and promoting tissue repair.
Exosomes reduce oxidative stress, which is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body.
Help protect and regenerate neurons to prevent neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
Reduces inflammation & promotes tissue remodelling and new blood formation.
Exosomes regenerate damaged skin, bone, and cartilage[6].
Exosomes carry molecules that enhance skin texture and plump the skin.
Contains growth factors that boost collagen, reducing wrinkles and plumping the skin.
Cell communication and signalling take time. Patients typically notice an improvement in the appearance and texture of the skin after about two weeks post-treatment.
Full results will occur between six and eight weeks, and the effect will continue building.
The successive treatments complement each other, resulting in youthful and radiant skin.
Exosome therapy offers a wide range of benefits that anyone can enjoy. It can be an effective anti-ageing treatment and a way to rejuvenate the skin.
This treatment can also address wrinkles and fine lines and improve uneven texture, dull complexion, acne scars, enlarged pores, and pigmentation.
Suitable patients for exosome treatment include those who:
Patients seeking non-surgical alternative solutions to effectively treat ageing signs like wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss.
This group of patients will notice reduced skin elasticity, collagen degradation, and saggy skin. Exosome Therapy promotes collagen synthesis, supporting skin healing, and protects cells from oxidative stress.
Those are seeking a more natural approach with longer-lasting results to reverse the effects of skin ageing, as Exosome Therapy harnesses the body’s regenerative capabilities.
Exosomes possess excellent biocompatibility and minimal toxicity, making adverse reactions unlikely during or after treatment.
The results of Exosome Therapy will continue to improve over time. Gradual improvement begins two weeks after treatment, with full results visible between six and eight weeks and effects continuing to develop thereafter.

Is exosome treatment painful?
No, there should be no pain involved in Exosome Treatment.
Are exosomes the same as skin boosters?
Exosome therapy is a topical application of serum after a skin treatment that uses a medical device, while skin boosters are injectables.
Can I undergo exosome therapy without microneedling?
Based on your skin condition and needs, the doctor will be able to advise you on the best treatment plan, such as using lasers or microdermabrasion instead of microneedling.
How soon can I wash my face after exosomes treatment?
In general, it is best to wash your face after at least 4 hours of treatment. Your doctor will advise you accordingly.
How often must I do the treatment?
Exosome therapy should be done every fortnight or 4 weeks, depending on your skin condition and treatment needs.
How long does it take for exosomes to start working?
You can expect to experience the effects and potential relief within a month of the treatment.
Is Exosome Therapy permanent?
Exosome therapy has the potential to provide long-lasting results.
Their effects include stimulating dormant hair follicles, which can lead to lasting benefits.
Post-treatment, the exosomes remain active for about eight months.
How long do the results from Exosome Therapy last?
On average, the results from exosome therapy last between six and eight months.
Is there any downtime?
There is no downtime per se, but wait at least 4 hours before washing your face and applying your daily skincare products, and wait 7 days before getting a facial.
As a matter of fact, Exosome Therapy can actually speed up recovery time, increase the effectiveness of the skin procedure, and reduce the number of skin treatments needed.
What activities to avoid after Exosome Therapy?
After undergoing exosome therapy, it's important to avoid strenuous activities for 1 to 2 days.
