Exosomes: What are They and How Can They Help with Skin Regeneration?

Microneedling is a popular aesthetic treatment that can do a lot more when paired with rejuvenating products such as serums and other expert formulations. It creates tiny punctures that activate healing and serve microchannels or entry points for beneficial ingredients to penetrate deeper and do their intended purpose. 

Exosomes are one of those skincare actives that pair well with in-office microneedling. These are messenger particles naturally released from a cell and help regulate regenerative processes in the body. Exosomes are said to assist with stimulating your fibroblasts to make more collagen and damaged skin cells to repair themselves. 

Getting to know exosomes

As previously mentioned, exosomes come from or are released by various cells in the body. They are nanoparticles that contain lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, and transfer genetic information throughout the body. They build communication paths between cells and provide instructions to other cells to do various functions. 

Exosomes are also known as extracellular vesicles that have an important role in intercellular communication. They, furthermore, release growth factors and help stimulate tissue repair and healing. In aesthetic medicine, they can be diffused over the outer skin layer through microneedling, activating faster wound healing and tissue remodeling. 

Exosomes, your skin, and looking youthful

The natural aging processes, diseases, and other factors can interfere with how the cells in your body communicate. They can sometimes negatively impact its repair process, with effects that can manifest in the form of dry skin, redness, dull complexion, and other signs of aging. 

Exosomes can help in such cases by assisting in skin rejuvenation and stimulating regenerative processes. They can be introduced into the skin through the fine fractional channels created by the skin-needling device. They can help with: 

• Skin hydration
• Giving the skin a glowing appearance
• Minimizing redness and irritation
• Reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores
• Reducing recovery time from certain treatments
• Enhancing the results of other in-office regenerative procedures

EXO-SKIN EXOSOMES

At Cutis, we have the Exo-Skin Exosomes, which are ethically derived from a multipotent and pure source. We use it alongside microneedling, which is an effective delivery mechanism of these nanoparticles into the skin without compromising their integrity.

Exo-Skin Exosomes are expert formulations that complement microneedling procedures. We have two serums: MG-EXO-SKIN and EXO-SKIN. The former is used during the skin needling procedure, while the latter is used as a part of daily home care protocol. 

MG-EXO-SKIN – used as a glide in professional microneedling and other in-clinic regenerative procedures. It is delivered through automated skin needling, which then allows exosomes’ regenerative capabilities to help speed up the results of the treatment. It can also improve different skin conditions such as rosacea, sun damage, aging, and pigmentation.

EXO-SKIN – used at home to boost the results of in-office treatments. It is recommended to use this rejuvenating serum for post-op and continuous home care twice a day (morning and night). Regular use helps enhance the results of skin needling with the potent actives that are in MG-EXO-SKIN.

Benefits of EXO SKIN™ EXOSOMES include: 

• Maximized potential for skin regeneration
• Renew and refresh for revitalized function
• Boost natural cellular repair, signals for more youthful-looking skin
• Help reduce the appearance of aging skin, pigmentation, and rosacea
• Promote normalized and youthful regeneration
• Renew and refresh for revitalized function

Skin rejuvenation and regeneration with exosomes and microneedling 

Microneedling and exosomes can help improve dull or tired-looking skin for a more youthful appearance. They positively affect not just skin healing, but also collagen and elastin synthesis. These can then provide benefits in tackling scarring, fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin health.
