Anti-aging treatments help you look younger and feel better about your skin, but they can also be kind of rough on that same skin when you first undergo the treatments. Wouldn’t it be nice to have an anti-aging treatment that was easier on your skin instead?
And wouldn’t it be even better if that treatment not only soothed your skin but also helped it regain its glow even faster? You do have that option now, and it’s called an exosome treatment. To make your skin glow and look youthful, we offer other options like Botox in Long Island.
What Is an Exosome?
Exosomes are particles that already exist in your body. Your cells release these as a way to communicate with each other. Exosomes carry fats and other materials and play a role in healing.
Exosomes can be extracted from stem cells, too, including lab-grown stem cells. These exosomes are harvested, purified, and tested, and then they’re usually stored frozen until needed. Remember, these aren’t cells themselves, and using an exosome treatment on your skin (assuming you use them properly) shouldn’t result in your body rejecting them.
Why Would You Want Exosomes After Some Treatments?
A number of cosmetic treatments can cause initial irritation on your skin, including microneedling or laser treatments. Using an exosome treatment after one of these other procedures not only helps the exosome treatment work, but it also helps soothe the irritation from the other procedures. You may find you recover a bit more quickly, too, because of the exosomes’ ability to help your skin heal faster.
What Do Topical Exosomes Do to Help Your Skin in General?
After using these with another skin procedure, the exosomes should help your skin heal faster. The exosomes actually promote collagen and elastin formation, which gives your skin that smoother, more resilient nature that it used to have before its natural collagen started to fade.
It turns out that your own body’s ability to produce exosomes fades as you get older, so using the exosome gel can help rejuvenate your skin by providing new exosomes. This is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation technique that also calms inflammation. Overall, exosome treatments are much gentler anti-aging treatments that support the very materials that help your skin cells grow and heal.
What Role Might Exosomes Play in Wound Healing?
At the same time that the exosomes are helping your skin look younger and firmer, they’re also helping wounds heal through essentially the same processes. By reactivating inactive skin cells and boosting collagen and elastin formation, the exosomes help your skin repair itself more quickly and thoroughly. That promotes wound healing and may help with scar formation, including improving how current scars look.
How Do Topical Exosomes Work if They’re Not Injected?
Exosome gels on their own won’t do anything, but when you have a procedure that creates small openings in your skin, such as resurfacing or microneedling, then the exosomes can sink in and go to work. What you’d normally do is have the initial cosmetic treatment such as microneedling, and then the dermatologist would add a layer of a topical gel that contains exosomes. It can take a few days for very visible results to show up, so have patience.
Exosome treatments are generally done in-office, but you may also receive other topical gels or creams to use at home afterward as you recover from microneedling or another procedure. AnteAGE moisturizer and AnteAGE cleanser are two such treatments. If you’re looking to fix deeper wrinkles or volume loss, we also offer facial injections in Commack. If you’ve been considering microneedling, laser resurfacing, or another treatment that can have harsh initial effects, look into exosome treatments that you get at the same time that you have these other procedures done. Celebrate your skin by helping to soothe and heal it from the inside out. Contact us to learn more.
