Exosome Treatment for Hair Loss
What are Exosomes?
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles secreted by cells throughout the body. These vesicles contain proteins, lipids, and other substances that play an important role in cell communication and tissue repair. Exosomes have regenerative properties, which makes them a promising treatment in various areas of health, including scalp and hair restoration.
Why Consider Exosome Treatment for Hair Loss?
Exosome treatment may be an option for individuals experiencing hair loss due to conditions such as androgenic alopecia (pattern hair loss) or telogen effluvium (temporary hair thinning). Exosome therapy aims to stimulate hair follicles, encourage natural hair growth, and support the overall health of the scalp.
Exosome treatment may be considered for the following reasons:
-
Thinning hair or areas of hair loss
-
Reduced hair growth or slow regrowth following hair loss
-
Scalp inflammation or irritation affecting hair follicle function
-
Frustration with other hair loss treatments that have not produced desired results
How Does Exosome Treatment Work?
Exosomes contain a variety of growth factors that can support the regeneration of hair follicles and the health of the scalp. When applied to the scalp, these growth factors help promote cell repair, increase circulation to the follicles, and stimulate hair growth.
The process involves:
-
Collection and preparation of exosomes from regenerative sources.
-
Application to the scalp via microinjections or dermaroller to deliver the exosomes directly to the hair follicles.
-
Promotion of hair follicle health and stimulation of natural hair growth.
Combining Exosome Treatment with Morpheus8
Exosome treatment can be combined with Morpheus8, a fractional radiofrequency microneedling treatment, for enhanced results. The microneedling process helps create tiny channels in the scalp, allowing the exosomes to penetrate more deeply into the tissue, enhancing the effectiveness of both treatments. This combination may be beneficial for individuals seeking improved hair growth and overall scalp health.
What to Expect from Treatment
Exosome treatment for hair loss is non-invasive and typically performed over a series of sessions, depending on the patient’s needs. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, and patients may experience some mild scalp sensitivity after the procedure. Results can vary, and the time frame for visible changes depends on individual factors, such as the severity of hair loss and the response to treatment.
