    GlossaryExosomes

    tiny vesicles that facilitate cell communication and material transport

    Exosomes are tiny, membrane-bound vesicles released by cells into the extracellular environment. They play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication by transporting proteins, lipids, and genetic material between cells, which can influence various biological processes, including immune responses and tissue repair. In the context of hair and alopecia, exosomes are being studied for their potential to promote hair growth and regenerate hair follicles.

      community How do exosome injections for Hair Growth work?

      in Is this regrowth?  1 upvotes 1 year ago
      Exosome injections stimulate hair growth by using exosomes' healing potential to awaken dormant hair follicles and promote new hair cell creation. The procedure increases scalp blood circulation, encourages collagen and elastin formation, and regenerates hair follicles, improving hair thickness and quality.

      community How Does Exosome Therapy Work for Hair Loss?

      in Research/Science  5 upvotes 1 year ago
      Exosome hair therapy involves injecting stem cell-derived exosomes into the scalp to boost hair follicle regeneration and repair. Exosomes, which are not stem cells but products of them, contain bioactive chemicals and specific growth factors that promote new blood vessel formation, increase cell proliferation, reduce inflammation, and improve tissue repair, all crucial for hair health.
