Exosomes have many healing and regenerative benefits thanks to their signaling role between cells.
Exosomes are tiny particles released by cells that contain proteins, fats, and genetic material, serving as messengers between cells. These powerful particles play a crucial role in cell communication, helping with important tasks like tissue repair, immune responses, and cell regeneration. Because they can transfer essential molecules between cells, exosomes are highly valuable in fields like regenerative medicine.
At Aesthetic Skin Chicago, we utilize exosome treatments for hair growth and facial skin rejuvenation, including addressing fine lines and wrinkles and enhancing the tone and elasticity of the skin.
Exosomes are tiny particles, about 30 to 150 nanometers in size, that are released by cells into their surroundings. They play a crucial role in cell communication, as they carry proteins, fats, and genetic material from one cell to another. Exosomes are created when vesicles form inside a cell, gather into larger structures, and then merge with the cell membrane to be released into the outside environment.
Once released, exosomes can be absorbed by nearby or distant cells, transferring their contents and influencing how these recipient cells function. This process is vital for many biological activities, such as cell signaling, immune responses, tissue repair, and even disease development.
Exosomes have gained attention in biomedical research due to their potential in areas like regenerative medicine, cancer treatment, drug delivery, and diagnostics. Their natural ability to carry bioactive molecules and pass through biological barriers makes them promising candidates for new therapies and disease markers.

Exosome treatments can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, enhance skin tone and elasticity, and promote a more youthful appearance. They are also known for their potential in accelerating the healing process after procedures like laser therapy. At Aesthetic Skin, we also use exosomes to aid in hair regrowth.
Exosomes can be topically applied to the skin or combined with other treatments like microneedling or microdermabrasion to enhance their effectiveness. They work by delivering growth factors, proteins, and genetic material to skin cells, stimulating skin repair and rejuvenation.
Exosome treatments are generally considered safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. They are derived from purified, sterile sources and have a low risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects. However, a consultation with a qualified provider is essential to assess your specific skin needs and any potential contraindications.
For the Skin: The duration of results can vary from person to person. Many individuals notice improvements shortly after treatment, and results can last for several months. For sustained benefits, periodic treatments may be recommended.
For Hair Regrowth: The results of exosome therapy for hair loss typically last between 12-18 months.
Exosome skin treatments are often referred to as “lunchtime” procedures because they typically involve no downtime. You can return to your regular activities immediately after the exosome skin treatment.
Yes, exosome treatments can be combined with other skin rejuvenation procedures, such as dermal fillers, Botox, or chemical peels, to enhance and prolong the effects. Your provider can discuss the best combination of treatments to achieve your aesthetic goals.
Exosome treatments are generally well-tolerated, with minimal side effects. Some individuals may experience mild redness or swelling at the treatment site, which usually resolves within a short period. It’s important to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by your provider.
To determine if exosome treatments are suitable for your specific skin concerns and goals, schedule a consultation with a qualified provider at Aesthetic Skin Chicago. They can assess your skin, discuss your expectations, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
