Exosomes are a promising regenerative treatment to promote your body's natural healing capabilities. Exosomes can be used as a stand-alone treatment or to supercharge any PRP procedure by combining the exosomes with PRP.
What are exosomes? Exosomes are small vesicles or "packages" that are released from stem cells. Inside these packages are the critical elements that give stem cells their regenerative power. Exosomes are the organic cellular particles that are created to move data between cells. Think of exosomes as the “vehicle” of some of the most important information in the body. Exosomes carry a concentrated dose of:
Growth factors: Proteins that stimulate tissue growth and healing.
Immune modulators: Molecules that help regulate and balance the immune system.
Proteins: Essential for cell repair and communication.
Communicative molecules: Signals that guide other cells in the body to heal and regenerate.
What is exosome therapy? Exosome therapy incorporates these vital intracellular messengers to rejuvenate aging tissue. During an exosome therapy procedure, exosomes prepared from mesenchymal stem cells in a lab are injected into the body to regenerate cells and accelerate healing. Exosomes can be used as a stand alone procedure or combined with PRP for a powerful regenerative treatment. Since exosomes have the ability to regenerate, they can help to repair and rebuild tissue anywhere in the body, even the skin. By using exosomes in conjunction with other treatments, the potential is there to rebuild healthy tissue.
Exosome therapy at Boulder Aesthetics & Intimate Wellness Exosomes can be used as a stand-alone treatment or in combination with other treatments. Exosomes supercharge any of our PRP procedures including:
Exosomes can also be added to skin care aesthetic procedures such as micro-needling, dermaplaning, laser & facials.
The power of exosomes When integrated into your overall regenerative treatment plan, exosome therapy offers several key benefits:
Supports stem cell activity: Exosomes provide the necessary signals and molecules that help your stem cells function more effectively, boosting their ability to repair and regenerate tissue.
Promotes faster recovery: Exosome therapy can accelerate the healing process by enhancing tissue growth and modulating the immune response.
Systemic support: Exosomes work throughout the body to address inflammation, support immune balance, and promote overall health
What is the difference between exosomes and stem cells? Exosomes are derived from stem cells. A key difference between exosomes and stem cells is that exosomes are smaller and more easily administered. This makes exosome therapy a more versatile and minimally invasive option compared to stem cell therapy. Exosomes that are from stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells, seem to have powerful effects such as anti-inflammatory properties, scar tissue prevention, and a healthy immune system.
What kind of results can I expect? Exosome therapy is a long-term regenerative treatment option that heals the body from the inside out. The reprogramming of cells induced by the exosomes occurs over the span of six to 10 weeks. You can expect to experience the full benefits of your exosome treatment in about three to four months, although results may be noticeable before then. Most patients enjoy their results for about one year, at which point a follow-up maintenance treatment can be performed.
Are there side effects? Like any type of injectable treatment, common side effects from exosome therapy include swelling, bruising and tenderness. You may feel a bit of discomfort after your appointment, although this should quickly fade throughout the course of the day.
