RF Microneedling & Microneedling
What are Exosomes and why should I add it to a microneedling treatment?
Exosomes are tiny powerful particles used in skincare to boost rejuvenation. Exosomes are naturally found and released by various cells in the body. These small particles help cells talk to each other by carrying proteins, fat, and genetic material which allows them to play a big role in healing, as well as other bodily functions. They play a vital role in improving skin health by signaling surrounding cells to boost, repair and rejuvenate the skin, resulting in quicker healing, healthier and more youthful skin
