Hair loss is something many men expect as they get older – but that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with.

For women, however, it often comes as an unexpected and upsetting surprise, even though hair thinning and shedding is far more common than most people realize.

Regardless of your gender, losing your hair can be a deeply personal and emotional experience. And it often affects much more than just your appearance – it can impact your confidence, self-esteem, and even how you feel day to day.

If you’ve been searching for solutions to your hair loss, there’s a good chance you’ve started to hear about exosomes for hair – and for good reason… 

Exosome hair therapy is a game-changer! 

Until now, there have been limited options for people suffering hair loss, with expensive and invasive hair transplants being one of the few effective options. But thanks to exosomes, there’s now another safe, effective, minimally invasive way to restore healthier and fuller hair. 

Microneedling with exosomes is the future of hair-loss treatments, and we’re so excited to be offering it at BodyTonic Cleveland

Keep reading to find out how it works, who it’s for, and why it might be the solution you’ve been waiting for.

What is exosome therapy? 

Exosomes might be the latest buzzword in aesthetic medicine, but they’re far from a passing trend.

Scientists have only recently discovered their power – especially when it comes to skin and hair rejuvenation. But now that they have, there’s no doubt that exosome therapies are going to become increasingly popular and widespread. 

But what exactly is exosome therapy? 

Let’s start by explaining what exosomes are… 

Exosomes are microscopic particles – packed full of growth factors, proteins, and other beneficial material – that are naturally produced by the body.  

The simplest way to think of them is as tiny messengers that exist to enable cell-to-cell communication and healing.

So exosomes aren’t cells themselves – instead, they guide and support other cells by delivering precise instructions and the tools (such as growth factors) they need to function optimally. For example, they can help reactivate dormant hair follicles and stimulate new growth.

So then, what are exosome therapies? In short – they’re advanced regenerative treatments that take advantage of this process by applying concentrated exosomes to targeted areas – using them as powerful tools to trigger healing and regeneration. 

Whether used for skin or hair, these treatments are leading the way in the future of regenerative aesthetics.

How are exosomes used for hair loss treatments?

Even though exosomes are naturally produced by our bodies, there isn’t a way to naturally encourage them to regenerate our skin or hair. 

To harness and utilize their benefits, this means we need to “collect” exosomes in another way, and then deliver them manually to the area we want to treat. 

How exosomes are “collected”: 

Exosomes used for hair and skin treatments aren’t drawn from your own body. That means there’s no blood draw, and no need to rely on the variability of individual biology.

Instead, they are ethically and safely harvested from stem cells in controlled laboratory environments, and developed specifically for use in aesthetic regenerative medicine. 

At BodyTonic, we use premium exosomes from AnteAGE MD, a trusted leader in regenerative science. Their exosomes are purified, tested, and standardized, ensuring each treatment delivers consistent, high-quality results. You can read more about exactly how they harvest their exosomes on their FAQ page

How exosomes are “delivered”: 

When used for aesthetic purposes, exosomes are applied topically – via creams or serums. They are most often used in combination with other procedures like microneedling, radiofrequency, laser, and other ablative treatments, as this increases their ability to penetrate the skin, meaning better results. 

How does exosome hair therapy work?

When it comes to hair regeneration, by far the most effective treatment is microneedling with exosomes.

So how exactly does microneedling with exosomes for hair restoration work? 

Just like microneedling for the skin, it involves using a microneedling device (such as the SkinPen) to create lots of tiny microchannels across the scalp. This serves two key purposes: 

  1. It stimulates the scalp and enhances circulation
  2. It opens the skin’s surface to allow for deeper absorption of exosomes

Once applied, the exosomes travel down through these microchannels and begin delivering regenerative signals to the hair follicles – including the damaged and dormant ones. 

These signals then trigger a cascade of cellular activity, encouraging follicles to re-enter the active growth phase and begin producing new, stronger hair strands.

The best thing is – unlike traditional hair transplants that are very invasive, painful, and expensive – microneedling with exosomes is a completely non-surgical treatment, with no general anesthesia, no downtime, and no scarring.

Who are exosome hair treatments best suited to? 

Microneedling with exosomes for hair restoration is ideal for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or early-stage hair loss. 

It’s particularly beneficial for anyone with: 

  • Early stage androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness) 
  • Hair loss or thinning caused by stress
  • Hair weakening due to aging or hormonal changes
  • Hair loss or thinning caused by certain medications and/or health conditions

It’s also an excellent option for: 

  • Anyone seeking a non-surgical alternative to hair transplantation 
  • Those looking for a more natural approach to restoring hair colume and density
  • Individuals who have tried conventional treatments and medications without success
  • People recovering from temporary hair loss due to illness or post-pregnancy changes

Although exosomes can reawaken dormant or inactive hair follicles, it’s important to realize that they cannot revive hair follicles that are completely dead. So early intervention is always key to getting the best results.

The benefits of microneedling with exosomes for hair loss

This revolutionary treatment offers a long list of advantages for those looking to restore hair naturally and confidently. 

Here are the many benefits of exosome hair therapy: 

  • Safe and effective for both men and women 
  • Stimulates natural hair growth by reactivating dormant follicles
  • Strengthens existing hair and improves scalp health
  • Noticeable results of thicker, healthier, stronger hair
  • Minimally invasive: no surgery, no scarring, no blood draw
  • Minimal to no downtime with quick, comfortable sessions
  • Natural-looking results with gradual and subtle improvements
  • More affordable than hair transplant procedures

And because exosomes are derived from stem cells (not live cells), the treatment avoids any of the risks associated with stem cell therapy, while still delivering many of the same regenerative benefits.

What to expect: treatment process, results, and aftercare

Microneedling with exosomes for hair restoration is a quick and minimally invasive procedure that can generate transformational results. 

Here’s an overview of what to expect: 

During the treatment

Each session typically takes under an hour and involves minimal discomfort – most clients describe it as a light prickling sensation.

A topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand to enhance comfort, especially for more sensitive areas, but it’s completely optional.

Once the scalp is prepped, microneedling is performed across the targeted areas. This is followed by the gentle application of exosomes, allowing them to absorb deeply into the skin and begin stimulating the hair follicles.

After the treatment

You may experience some mild redness or sensitivity afterward, but these effects are short-lived and most clients resume their usual routine right away.

Aftercare is simple and includes using a specialized hair oil designed to enhance the effects of the treatment and promote hair regrowth.

The results

Visible results often begin to appear within 6 to 12 weeks, with improvements in thickness, texture, and volume continuing over the following months. 

Results should then last for several years, depending on the rate of hair loss before the treatment. 

We usually recommend a minimum of two sessions for best results, with the option to build a longer-term plan based on your individual needs.
