Quick answer
What is exosome skin therapy?
Exosome therapy applies exosomes, nano-sized vesicles released by cultured stem cells, to the skin. They carry proteins and signalling molecules that help calm inflammation, support barrier repair and encourage collagen renewal. In Korea, exosome products are used on the skin surface, usually right after microneedling or a laser, rather than injected deep.
It is popular in Seoul to speed recovery after lasers, and for sensitivity, redness, enlarged pores and early ageing. The doctor will show you the product used. It is closely related to the stem cell facial, with a more concentrated formula.
