learn Exosomes
Tiny cell-derived particles offered by clinics as an injectable treatment
- What are exosomes and how do they help regenerate hair in cases of severe hair loss? Exosomes are cell-derived vesicles that some clinics promote for hair regrowth. No exosome product is FDA-approved, and human evidence is limited to small, uncontrolled reports.
- Are exosomes applied as a serum, an injection, or combined with other hair treatments? Clinics offer exosomes as scalp injections, as serums applied after microneedling, or combined with PRP. No exosome product is FDA-approved, and no reliable evidence shows that any of these methods works.
- Do exosome-based treatments require medical supervision or can they be done at home? No exosome product is FDA-approved, for home or clinic use, and FDA has reported serious adverse events in patients who received unapproved exosome products. Home kits add risks of contamination, infection and unknown contents.
