January 2025 in “Cosmetics” The review article explores the potential of exosomes in cosmetics and regenerative medicine, focusing on their roles in skin rejuvenation, wound healing, and tissue repair. Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles, deliver growth factors and bioactive molecules, offering non-invasive alternatives to traditional treatments. Despite promising applications, challenges such as regulatory barriers, standardization issues, and a lack of clinical validation persist. The study reviewed 37,972 studies, highlighting significant interest in exosome research, particularly in wound healing. Exosomes show promise in enhancing skin hydration, elasticity, and pigmentation regulation, but further research and clinical trials are needed to validate their safety, efficacy, and feasibility in dermatology and plastic surgery.
