Exosome Therapy and Skin Needling: Future of Skin Renewal
Get in touch with us
Did you know that exosome therapy, and skin needling are emerging treatments? When combined, it’s a promising way to meet skin goals. From minimising the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scarring to hyperpigmentation. Providing the opportunity for complete skin rejuvenation.
See why combining these treatments is on the rise:
What is Exosome Therapy?
This new skin therapy leverages the power of your naturally occurring healing process. Known as exosomes, these are small sized skin vesicles produced by cells.
These little messengers communicate with each other, carrying factors important for tissue repair. This ranges from proteins, growth factors to RNA’s. By doing so, these can boost the skin’s healing and regeneration process.
What is Skin Needling (Microneedling)?
Microneedling is a popular and minimally invasive treatment. This is because it has the opportunity to meet a variety of unique skin goals. This ranges from hyperpigmentation to wrinkle reduction.
The needling process works by using tiny needles to create punctures in the skin. These micro channels then stimulate the body’s natural healing process. Both of which enhance the production of collagen, followed by elastin. This triggers the skin’s natural recovery processes.
The Promising Potential for Exosome Therapy and Skin Needling
So far, we’ve established what these treatments are, and why they’re important. However, you may be wondering “So, how can these work together?” The truth is, by using these together, you’re amplifying the opportunity to meet your skin goals. This is a process otherwise known as “Synergy.”
See how below:
Micro-Channels Boost Exosomes Potency
Microneedling is a process which leads to the creation of microchannels. These are used for exosomes, as it allows the treatment to penetrate more deeply. Providing clearer and more direct pathways for them.
When doing so, it can then maximise the potential for skin benefits. According to an article by Elle, clinical professor Dr Gohara says that people are using exosomes after microneedling. She says, “These prime little packages filled with goodness help to activate cells involved with wound healing or sleepy cells once responsible for rejuvenation.”
Enhanced Collagen and Elastin Production
By allowing for more potent exosome therapy, microneedling can improve skin benefits. This is because it allows for a boost in the skin’s naturally occurring processes. As collagen is a protein responsible for overall skin healing and rejuvenation.
Through potentially elevating collagen production, there’s room for many anti-aging benefits. This ranges from minimising the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles to scars. In an article published on Wiley, 28 patients had 3 treatment sessions at 4 week intervals. It was found that this provided an effective and safe solution for anti-aging.
Minimally-Invasive Treatment
When used together, both treatments are known for minimal invasiveness. This is because the exosome therapy is typically applied topically after microneedling. On the other hand, microneedling relies on your skin’s natural healing process.
Boost the Skins Healing Process
Post microneedling, many may experience side effects. This is because the treatment can lead to skin inflammation. Which then causes redness and irritation.
Given the regenerative nature of exosomes, this can boost the skin’s healing processes. And as a result, you may discover skin soothing, and reduced redness. So you can have the opportunity for a smoother recovery.
*Please note that the science behind skin needling and exosome therapy is emerging. While results aren’t guaranteed, this is a promising solution for many.
What Skin Goals Can I Meet with Skin Needling and Exosome Therapy?
These treatments create a synergistic process for promising results. Which is why it’s becoming a popular skin treatment combination. As per an article published on PubMed, 3 participants had microneedling and exosomes applied at 4 week intervals for 6 months. They then discovered an improved skin texture, appearance and pore size.
Spot your skin goal below:
- Fine Lines: Microneedling with exosomes promotes collagen production. This can help to minimise the appearance of fine lines, leading to a firmer complexion.
- Wrinkles: Skin needling and exosome therapy can minimise the look of wrinkles. This is because these treatments help to boost collagen and elastin. Which then balances skin firmness and tone.
- Pigmentation: Microneedling supports the rejuvenating qualities of exosomes. Providing an even skin complexion, as well as a reduction of dark spots.
- Acne Scars: Microneedling accelerates the skin’s natural healing process. This causes it to break down the scar tissue, promoting the growth of new skin.
*Given the rising research, please note that the above is an overview of potential skin outcomes. The results of each treatment vary from individual to individual.
So, Could I Be a Good Candidate For these Skin Treatments?
