Cells in the body sending genetic materials, proteins or signal molecules to each other means that communication between cells occurs. However, if there is any disruption or wear in the structures that support this communication, communication will be interrupted and various health problems will arise.
What is an exosome?
Exosomes, in their clearest definition, are small membrane structures also known as vesicles outside the cell. These vesicles are microscopic and are produced inside the cell. Intercellular communication is ensured by its release into the external environment.
Containing secreted genetic materials, proteins, and various cellular components, exosomes have many functions. Exosomes undertake tasks such as cleaning cellular debris and transferring genetic information between cells.
How is exosome treatment done?
The key role in intercellular communication belongs to the exosome. Exosome therapy is the use of small vesicles that provide this communication. They are directed to damaged cells in the body and treatment is applied to repair these cells or reduce the existing cells.
Exosome therapy has the following benefits:
- It provides information and material transfer between cells and repairs damaged cells.
- It reduces inflammatory conditions in the body.
- It regulates the immune system.
- It is supportive in the treatment of neurological diseases.
- It can stop tumor development by preventing the growth of cancer cells.
- It slows down cellular aging and has an anti-aging effect.
How is exosome hair treatment done?
- Exosome hair treatment is performed by applying exosome solution. Solution is a liquid enriched in molecules. This treatment ends in 3 or 8 sessions, with 1 or 2 week breaks.
- In hair treatments, exosome solution is injected into the scalp using thin needles. The procedure is painless and takes approximately 15 minutes. Exosome solution reaches the hair roots directly. Thus, hair follicles are repaired and grow.
- Injection into the scalp is performed using different techniques. Microneedling, dermapen, metotherapy are some of these techniques.
