    TLDR Exosomes have potential in skin treatments but need more research and are only used topically in the U.S.
    Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles involved in intercellular communication, show promise in medical and cosmetic dermatology applications due to their ability to transfer genetic materials. However, most research on their therapeutic use is still in preclinical stages, necessitating further studies and clinical trials to assess their safety and efficacy. In the U.S., exosomes are currently limited to topical applications, unlike in other countries where they can be injected.
