Exosomes Explained – What They Are & Why They’re a Game-Changer in Skin Repair
“My skin feels dull and tired -what’s happening?”
You’ve tried good skincare. Maybe even had microneedling or skin boosters before. But sometimes, your skin needs an extra push—something to help it repair, rebuild, and bounce back.
That’s where exosomes come in.
They might sound high-tech (and they are), but in simple terms, exosomes are tiny, powerful messengers that help your skin regenerate. When used in the right way—especially after microneedling—they take your skin’s natural healing ability and elevate it.
If you’re feeling like your skin’s been a little slower to recover, a little duller than usual, or just not responding the way it used to, this treatment could be the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.
So... What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes are microscopic particles released by cells in the body to promote healing and communication. In the world of aesthetics, we use lab-purified exosomes derived from stem cell technology to support deep skin repair.
They’re packed with growth factors, peptides, and anti-inflammatory properties - and when introduced into the skin after a microneedling session, they supercharge your results.
Skin heals faster. Looks brighter. And feels healthier from the inside out.
Why do we pair exosomes with microneedling
Microneedling creates tiny channels in the skin, stimulating collagen and allowing active ingredients to be absorbed more effectively. When we apply exosomes immediately after microneedling, it’s like giving your skin a shortcut to recovery—calming redness, improving tone, and encouraging deeper renewal.
It’s especially useful for:
Skin that’s lost its glow post-pregnancy
Uneven tone or sun damage
Ageing or stressed-out complexions
Skin that feels sluggish or dull despite good care
We often recommend it to mums who feel like they’re doing everything right, but their skin still feels flat or tired.
What to expect
You won’t leave the clinic looking dramatically different, and that’s a good thing. Over the days and weeks that follow, you’ll notice a subtle but beautiful transformation. Skin feels smoother, pores appear smaller, and there’s a clarity and radiance that develops naturally.
For best results, we usually recommend a short course of treatments, especially if you’re prepping for a big event or want to reset your skin after a period of stress, pregnancy, or hormonal change.
Exosomes also pair beautifully with ZO Skin Health products, helping you maintain that post-treatment glow at home.
