- Microneedling with Exosomes

Exosomes, containing growth factors & signaling molecules, aid in promoting hair growth and enhancing overall hair health. Microneedling with Exosomes Schedule Consultation Explore Gallery < Back Next > About the Treatment What is it? Microneedling with exosomes is a hair restoration treatment that combines the use of exosomes therapy with microneedling, a technique that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the scalp to stimulate hair growth.

During a microneedling with exosomes treatment for hair, the scalp is first cleansed and prepared with a topical anesthetic. A handheld microneedling device is then used to create tiny punctures in the scalp, which allows for deeper penetration of the exosomes into the hair follicles. The exosomes are then applied topically to the scalp and massaged into the hair follicles to promote hair growth and improve hair health. This treatment is typically performed in a series of sessions for optimal results, with each session lasting around 30 minutes. How long to see results? The response varies. In general, it is recommended to wait 3-6 months in between sessions to see the full potential result. Why do the procedure/benefits?
