One of the most popular topics in recent times is exosome therapy. So, what is this exosome therapy? Exosomes are extracellular vesicles or small bubbles released from cells that shuttle genetic information, proteins, and RNA to other cells, acting as intermediaries between cells. Exosomes carry valuable information to target cells, regulating processes of rejuvenation and aiding in the promotion of youthfulness in the body.
Exosomes are obtained through the separation of blood taken from an individual using special equipment in genetic laboratories over a period of two days. These exosomes can be administered intravenously through the bloodstream or through local injections into joints or the skin. The frequency and intervals of treatment are determined by the physician.
WHAT ARE THE APPLICATION AREAS OF PRP-EXOSOME?
Hair loss: PRP-exosome injections can be administered to the scalp to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss. Research has shown that PRP-exosome injections are effective in treating androgenic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness. Particularly in cases of genetic hair loss in men, significant results can be achieved.
Tendon and ligament injuries: It is a highly effective method for tendon and ligament injuries such as meniscopathies, tendon injuries, tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, shoulder impingement syndrome, and rotator cuff syndrome. Typically, it is applied in 2 sessions with a 15-day interval.
Postoperative repair: It is often used to expedite the healing of postoperative ligament and tendon injuries.
Osteoarthritis: With its regenerative acceleration effect, PRP-exosome therapy is highly effective in the treatment of osteoarthritis. It has become one of the most popular treatments for conditions such as knee osteoarthritis (gonarthrosis), hip osteoarthritis (coxarthrosis), and wrist osteoarthritis (rhizarthrosis).
Skin rejuvenation: Positive effects may include increased skin elasticity and reduction in wrinkles. It has also been reported to be highly effective in scar treatment.
