Microneedling With Exosomes: A Treatment to Boost Your Aesthetics Offerings
Microneedling has become a staple in the cosmetic industry, long celebrated for its non-invasive and transformative effects on the skin. As this treatment continues to evolve, the integration of exosomes has emerged as a revolutionary approach, providing numerous benefits for regenerative aesthetics.
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that play a crucial role in intercellular communication, transporting bioactive molecules, including growth factors and proteins to facilitate tissue repair and regeneration.
While exosomes have been utilized in various medical applications, their integration into aesthetic treatments represents a groundbreaking advancement.
exosomes: the new frontier in Regenerative Aesthetics
Exosomes’ therapeutic potential lies in their ability to regulate cellular processes. Unlike stem cell therapies, which involve the transplantation of live cells, exosome treatments focus on utilizing the signaling capabilities of these vesicles.
These cells naturally release nanoparticles, carry lipids, proteins, amino acids, peptides, and growth factors, triggering a repair response and contributing to improved skin elasticity and firmness.
When combined with microneedling, it can be used to boost healing results and treat a range of conditions including fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, burns, sun damage, acne scarring, uneven skin tone, texture issues, enlarged pores, and dull skin.
What the Application Process Entails
Exosomes can be administered through various delivery methods, including topical applications, to precisely target damaged or inflamed skin tissue.
Microneedling employs ultra thin needles to stimulate collagen production in the skin and create effective channels for the application of an exosome serum.
When applied topically following a treatment, exosomes are absorbed through the skin through the small punctures made by the microneedling device, facilitating their precise delivery to the targeted layers of the skin and optimizing their regenerative effects.
Patients are often advised to abstain from applying any products to their skin for at least 24 hours following the procedure so the treatment can work without interference.
Exosomes can also be coupled with radiofrequency (RF) microneedling, which combines the use of needles to puncture skin with RF energy to further stimulate collagen and elastin production.
What to Look For in Exosome Products
There is a wide range of exosome products on the market, and choosing the right one is not only about quantity, but also about understanding the nuanced factors that can define their efficacy.
Exosomes and their overall function can vary significantly based on their sources, which can include human adipose tissue, bone marrow, perinatal tissue, or plant-derived cells.
While easily accessible, adipose tissue-derived exosomes may not be the ideal choice for skin or hair treatments due to their primary function related to energy storage; exosomes derived from bone marrow and perinatal tissue are more effectively utilized in regenerative treatments targeting the skin.
And while particulate count is often hailed as a huge selling point, quantity alone doesn't guarantee efficacy. It is crucial to focus on the specific contents, including growth factors, proteins, cytokines, and mRNA, as these elements can determine potency. Simply relying on a high particulate count can be misleading without validating the specific components and their effectiveness for targeted applications.
A nuanced understanding of both the sourcing and composition is essential for selecting products that deliver optimal results in regenerative applications.

Leading the series is ExoCR, an active biologic product derived from Wharton’s Jelly within the umbilical cord and formulated to target dermal fibroblasts. Validated to contain over 50 billion particulates, 10 billion intact exosomes, and 1000+ growth factors and cytokines, ExoCR delivers superior efficacy for aesthetic benefits.
Cartessa also offers VirtueRF, the world's first RF microneedling platform, to elevate patient experiences and deliver faster, more dramatic results than conventional microneedling, while keeping the outer skin layer intact.
This minimally invasive cosmetic treatment is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scarring, and skin laxity. It utilizes ultra-fine needles, along with LED lights emitting radiofrequency waves, to produce thermal energy, irritating the skin and stimulating its repair response, while encouraging the body’s ability to naturally produce collagen.
The VirtueRF device is equipped with an array of insulated fine needles designed to puncture the top layer of skin and can be applied in a fractional pattern to trigger collagen and elastin production. This results in smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.
