Combination of Exosomes & PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
The combination of Exosomes and PRP for hair loss begins with a cleansing of the scalp and the application of a numbing cream to ensure comfort. PRP, prepared from the patient’s blood, is extracted and processed to isolate growth factors. Exosomes, tiny vesicles rich in proteins and cellular signaling molecules, are also prepared to support healing and hair follicle regeneration. The scalp is then treated with micro-needling or direct injection to ensure deep delivery of both PRP and exosomes. The procedure generally takes 60–90 minutes, and while it is minimally invasive, patients may experience slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a few hours to a day. Results often start to appear within 3–6 months, with optimal hair growth and density visible in the following months.
