Treatment Overview
Exosome Therapy is one of the most advanced regenerative skin booster treatments available in Korea, designed to repair damaged skin, stimulate collagen production, and restore youthful glow at the cellular level. Exosomes are microscopic extracellular vesicles secreted by stem cells, carrying growth factors, proteins, lipids, and genetic material that act as messengers to promote healing and regeneration.
In Korean dermatology, exosomes are delivered through micro-injections, microneedling infusions, or post-laser application. Unlike traditional skin boosters that mainly hydrate, exosome therapy provides cellular communication signals that rebuild skin structure, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery.
This treatment is often described as the “next-generation skin booster”, going beyond hydration to achieve true skin regeneration.
Purpose & Benefits
- Collagen & Elastin Boost: Improves skin firmness and resilience.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Softens fine lines and deep creases.
- Skin Healing: Repairs acne scars, sun damage, and pigmentation.
- Hydration & Glow: Restores radiant, glass-like skin.
- Pore Refinement: Shrinks enlarged pores and smooths skin.
- Post-Treatment Recovery: Accelerates healing after lasers or microneedling.
- Anti-Inflammatory Effect: Calms redness, sensitivity, and irritation.
Ideal Candidates
Exosome Therapy in Korea is recommended for:
- Adults in their 20s–70s seeking advanced anti-aging solutions.
- Patients with wrinkles, sagging skin, scars, or pigmentation.
- Individuals with sensitive or rosacea-prone skin needing repair.
- Men and women who want regenerative treatment beyond hydration.
- Patients combining Exosomes with Rejuran, PRP, or skin boosters for synergy.
Possible Risks & Complications
Exosome Therapy is very safe with KFDA-approved products in Korea, but mild side effects may include:
- Redness or Sensitivity: Temporary, resolves in 1–2 days.
- Swelling or Bruising: If injections are used.
- Dryness or Flaking: May occur during skin regeneration.
- Rare Risks: Allergic reaction or infection (extremely rare in top clinics).
Surgical Techniques Used
Though non-surgical, Korean dermatologists use precision delivery methods for exosomes:
- Direct Micro-Injections: Placed into dermis for targeted repair.
- Microneedling Infusion: Enhances penetration of exosomes.
- Laser-Assisted Application: Applied after fractional laser to speed healing.
- Combination Therapy: Often paired with Rejuran, HA boosters, or PRP.
- Multi-Session Protocol: Typically 3–5 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart.
Recovery & Aftercare
- Immediately After: Redness or sensitivity.
- 1–3 Days: Skin calms; glow starts to appear.
- 2–4 Weeks: Wrinkles soften; scars and texture improve.
- 3–6 Months: Collagen regeneration and firming effects peak.
Aftercare Tips:
- Avoid makeup for 24 hours.
- Apply SPF 50+ daily.
- Keep skin well-hydrated.
- Avoid sauna, alcohol, or strenuous exercise for 1–2 days.
Results & Longevity
- Immediate: Skin feels fresher, healthier.
- Short-Term (2–4 Weeks): Glow improves; fine lines soften.
- Medium-Term (3–6 Months): Collagen remodeling firms and lifts skin.
- Long-Term: Results last 12–18 months, with yearly maintenance.
