Exosomes are nano-sized extracellular vesicles that act as biological messengers — carrying proteins, RNA, and growth factors that instruct skin cells to repair, regenerate, and produce new collagen. When applied topically during or after microneedling, exosomes amplify the skin's natural healing response exponentially. The result is faster recovery, deeper repair, and significantly enhanced outcomes compared to standalone treatment.
Benefits
Accelerates post-treatment healing and recovery
Improves skin firmness and resilience
Enhances glow and hydration, and smoother texture
Significantly enhances collagen and elastin production
Reduces inflammation and redness post-procedure
Improves scar remodelling depth and speed
Supports cellular communication and repair pathways
Suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types
Who it's for
For those who prefer advanced, science-driven treatments, Exosome Therapy is most impactful when used in conjunction with microneedling or other energy-based treatments. It is particularly recommended for clients with acne scarring, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, age-related thinning or laxity or those wanting to maximise their treatment investment (rather than seeking a quick fix). It is also beneficial for clients with compromised or reactive skin seeking accelerated recovery.
Practioner notes
Adding exosomes to a microneedling session is one of the highest-value upgrades we offer. The difference in healing speed and final collagen outcome — particularly for acne scarring — is clinically significant. I recommend it to almost every client undertaking a treatment course.

What to expect
Session duration
90 minutes
Recommended sessions
Applied at each session of the combined treatment course (typically 3–6 sessions). For optimal penetration and efficacy, INNO-EXEMA® is delivered via precision microneedling.
Downtime
Moderate (2–5 days)
Maintenance
Applied with each maintenance microneedling session spaced approximately every 4 weeks.
Contraindications
Active autoimmune conditions
Immunosuppressant medications (discuss with practitioner)
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
Active infection at treatment site
Preparation instructions
Follow preparation instructions for the primary treatment (e.g. microneedling)
Inform practitioner of any biologics, immunosuppressant medications, or active autoimmune conditions
A topical anaesthetic can be applied to more sensitive areas to maximise comfort, although most clients find the treatment very tolerable and not painful
Aftercare instructions
Follow aftercare instructions for your primary treatment
Exosomes continue to work for 72 hours post-application — keep skin clean and hydrated
Avoid active ingredients for 5 days
SPF 50+ daily
What to expect:
Thanks to the anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties of INNO-EXEMA®, redness typically subsides quickly compared to traditional microneedling treatments. You may experience:
Mild pinkness for 24–48 hours
Slight warmth or tightness
Light flaking in some cases
Most clients return to normal activities the following day.

Results timeline
Noticeably faster recovery than treatment without exosomes. Collagen remodelling outcomes enhanced significantly at 3–6 months post-course.
Consultation
Available as an add-on to microneedling.
