Are you searching for the next groundbreaking innovation in skincare to offer to your patients?
Welcome to the world of exosomes, the tiny yet mighty cellular communicators revolutionising skin quality.
During a recent Fresh Clinics webinar, expert trainer Rajdi Gemeri, a registered nurse and owner of Pause Mediclinic explored the science behind exosomes, their clinical applications, and how practitioners can integrate them into their clinics.
What are Exosomes?
Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles that play a crucial role in cell communication. They carry proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids as molecular messengers that promote skin regeneration, collagen production, and overall tissue repair.
"I like to explain exosomes to my patients as ‘text messages for your skin,’ sending signals to behave optimally," explained Rajdi.
Unlike traditional growth factors used in skincare, exosomes offer a more advanced, targeted approach by delivering bioactive materials directly to skin cells, resulting in stronger, healthier, and more resilient skin.
Clinical Application: Bringing Exosomes to Your Practice
The versatility of exosome therapy allows it to be seamlessly incorporated into existing treatments. In fact, exosomes are most effective when combined with procedures that create microchannels in the skin, allowing deeper penetration:
- Micro-needling: When combined with micro-needling, exosomes penetrate the skin more effectively, enhancing their regenerative effects. The micro-needling process creates tiny channels that allow exosomes to deliver deeper into the skin layers, resulting in improved texture, reduced pore size, and a reduction in pigmentation
- Energy-Based Devices: Exosomes can be applied post-treatment for those with access to lasers or radiofrequency devices. They accelerate healing, reduce downtime, and act as an anti-inflammatory
- Injectable Combinations: Exosomes can be applied alongside bio stimulators for enhanced skin rejuvenation
One of the greatest advantages of exosomes is their simplicity of use. Clinicians can add exosome therapy to existing treatments without extending session times.
"If you're already offering micro-needling or laser treatments, adding exosomes is a natural next step. It enhances results, improves patient satisfaction, and increases your service value,” Rajdi shared.
Boosting Your Business: Financial Benefits
Many clinics report doubling their hourly turnover after introducing exosome treatments.
For instance, a clinic that typically charges $350 for skin needling can add exosome therapy as an additional $350 service, increasing treatment revenue to $700. This straightforward addition can increase business profitability while delivering impressive outcomes for patients.
Patients are becoming more educated and are actively seeking non-invasive, regenerative treatments. Clinics that offer exosome therapy set themselves apart in an increasingly competitive market.
Rajdi’s advice is clear: "Don't overthink it. Just go with it and watch the magic happen."
