What is an Exosome Facial?
The Exosome facial is a cosmetic facial treatment that involves topical exosome application with a microneedling device to deliver exosomes into the skin. Exosomes are acellular molecules that carry critical cellular communication information from one cell to another. These molecules may encourage cell turnover and promote the body’s natural skin healing processes which aim to repair and strengthen the skin.
Exosomes may also stimulate collagen and elastin production to address skin texture, skin quality and skin tone.
To learn more about Exosome skin therapy at our Brisbane clinic, we invite you to book a Dermal consultation.
EXOSOME INFORMATION
Find out about Exosome Therapy at Inigo Cosmetic in Brisbane.
Exosomes are acellular molecules produced by most healthy cells. They may be thought of as messengers sending cellular communication information between cells, triggering cellular cascades which may lead to increased cell turnover and the promotion of the body’s natural skin healing processes. Exosomes are designed to encourage new cells to awaken inactive or older cells so they may help address skin and scalp repair and promote hair growth. To address hair characteristics, it may be recommended that you combine Exosomes with Healite, PRP and / or medication.
Exosomes may be used topically on their own or combined with other treatments such as microneedling, often used on the face, neck, décolletage or scalp to address:
- Collagen and elastin production
- Skin elasticity
- Inflammation
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Pigmentation
- Skin laxity
- Acne scarring
- Pore size
- Hair growth
Skin: Patients may often see results after just one treatment, however the recommended protocol for Exosome skin applications is generally four treatments, spaced four weeks apart. Additional sessions may be undertaken once every six months to maintain and support results.
Hair growth: The recommended protocol for Exosome scalp applications is four treatments, spaced two weeks apart. Additional sessions may be undertaken every six months to maintain and support results.

Depending on your aesthetic goals, your practitioner may suggest incorporating exosomes into your existing treatment regimen with the aim of supporting the results of your chosen therapy. Exosome application after advanced skin treatments aims to reduce downtime by supporting the healing phase and addressing inflammation. As exosomes are applied topically, they are able to be integrated into the majority of facial or body treatments.
Exosomes may be utilised with:
- RF Microneedling (Morpheus8 or Exion)
- Exion RF Ultrasound
- Bio-remodelling treatments
- Glass Facial
- Skin Health Facials

After your Exosome treatment, you can expect 24 hours of mild downtime. Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, bumps and bruising are common side effects, however, this should generally fade within a few days.
Following your Exosome Facial or scalp treatment your skin will be more sensitive, we recommend avoiding the sun where you can for the first days, wearing SPF 30+ or higher creme, avoiding hot baths, showers, saunas for 3-5 days, no chemical peels, facials or cosmetic injectables for 7-14 days. Specific aftercare instructions will be given to you prior to treatment.
Depending on the reason for your treatment we may recommend other treatments or homecare serums to work alongside your Exosome treatment.
For a full list of our recovery and aftercare please visit out non-surgical pre & pos treatment page.
Results may be seen from 1-2 weeks after your first treatment, however full results are generally seen 6-12 weeks following your last treatment. The results from your Exosome Facial may last up to 6-12 months. Additional treatments may be undertaken every 6-12 months to maintain and support results.
