Exosomes for Hair loss

All about exosomes and what they can help with-

Exosome therapy for hair loss is an option for both men and women and can be used in the early and/or later stages of hair loss. Exosomes can also be used in combination with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), Low-Level Light therapy, or hair restoration procedures to specifically target areas in need.

Exosomes are fascinating extracellular vesicles that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. Let’s delve into their intriguing world:

1. Definition and Origin:

• Exosomes are membrane-bound vesicles produced within the endosomal compartment of most eukaryotic cells ¹².
• They are released from cells upon fusion of an intermediate endocytic compartment called the multivesicular body (MVB) with the plasma membrane ¹³.
• This fusion liberates intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) into the extracellular milieu, and these vesicles are what we recognize as exosomes.

1. Size and Composition:

• Exosomes are generally smaller than most other extracellular vesicles (EVs), ranging from approximately 30 to 150 nanometers (nm) in diameter ². This is about a thousand times smaller than cells.
• They contain a variety of biomolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids.
• Despite their small size, exosomes play a significant role in intercellular communication by transferring these biomolecules between cells to modulate cellular processes ⁴.

1. Discovery:

• The recognition of exosomes dates back to 1983 when studies on the loss of transferrin during the maturation of reticulocytes into erythrocytes revealed their existence ¹.
• These studies demonstrated that ILVs generated in MVBs could be released into the extracellular space through fusion with the plasma membrane ¹².
• The term “exosome” was officially coined in 1987 to describe these intriguing extracellular vesicles ¹.

1. How can they possibly help-

• hair loss
• post and pre hair transplant
• skin conditions- pigment, age, fine lines, regulating inflammation.

Using the specific exosome for a particular area is very important.


How do we get these exosomes into these areas ?

• with our topical dermal therapy such as laser or needling.
• Using sonophoresis
• using Burst technology eg Targetcool.

Patients can resume daily activities a day after the treatment, though the scalp may feel a bit sensitive for about a week. Hair growth can start as soon as eight weeks later and continue over a year. Noticeable results typically are seen about six months after treatment. The longevity of the results can vary from person to person.

The process will take less than 30 mins.
