How are exosomes harvested?
Exosomes are carefully extracted and purified using advanced laboratory techniques to ensure maximum safety and potency.
Here’s how the process works:
-
Stem Cell Cultivation:
In a sterile, controlled laboratory environment, stem cells are carefully cultured and nurtured, allowing them to naturally release exosomes into the surrounding medium.
-
Isolation & Purification:
The exosomes are then precisely isolated using state-of-the-art methods, such as ultracentrifugation (high-speed spinning), meticulous filtration, and specialised purification processes to guarantee purity and effectiveness.
-
Quality Control:
Each batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure they’re free of contaminants and rich in growth factors and regenerative molecules essential for optimal healing.
-
Packaging:
Once purified and tested, the exosomes are safely packaged into sterile vials or serums, ready for your clinician to use in treatments for skin or scalp rejuvenation.
The final product is a powerful, highly concentrated solution designed to trigger natural regeneration, helping your body restore and rejuvenate effectively—without introducing cells or artificial substances.
What are exosomes made of?
Exosomes are tiny, naturally occurring particles created by stem cells, designed to carry powerful regenerative signals between cells. Think of them as microscopic packages filled with valuable cargo, specifically tailored to repair, heal, and rejuvenate.
Inside each exosome, you’ll find:
-
Growth Factors: Natural proteins that stimulate healing, increase collagen, and encourage healthy cell growth.
-
Peptides and Proteins: Building blocks that reduce inflammation, protect cells, and support overall skin and hair health.
-
Genetic Material (RNA): Tiny pieces of genetic code that instruct your cells how to behave—such as producing collagen or regenerating tissue.
-
Lipids (natural fats): Protective molecules that help safely deliver this regenerative cargo into your cells.
Together, these natural ingredients form a potent, restorative cocktail that signals your body’s cells to regenerate, renew, and function optimally—without adding artificial ingredients or cells themselves.
Where are Exosomes at Contour Clinics sourced from?
At Contour Clinics, we exclusively source our exosomes from ExoCoBio’s ASCE+™, a global leader renowned for producing high-quality, rigorously tested exosome products. ExoCoBio’s ASCE+™ exosomes undergo strict purification processes, extensive quality control, and adhere to international standards of safety and potency.
This commitment ensures that every exosome treatment you receive at Contour Clinics is of the highest possible standard, designed to safely and effectively deliver optimal skin rejuvenation and hair restoration results.
Are Exosomes stem cells?
No, exosomes are not stem cells—but they do come from them. Exosomes are tiny particles naturally produced and released by stem cells. Think of stem cells as factories, and exosomes as the specialised packages they send out, filled with important messages and regenerative signals.
Unlike stem cells themselves, exosomes contain no live cells. Instead, they deliver powerful growth factors, proteins, peptides, and genetic instructions directly into your own cells, encouraging regeneration, healing, and rejuvenation—without introducing any cells into your body.
This makes exosome therapy a safe, effective, and innovative alternative to stem cell treatments, harnessing their regenerative benefits without the risks associated with actual stem cells.
Are Extracellular Vesicles the Same as Exosomes?
Not exactly. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a general category of tiny particles released by almost every cell in your body, responsible for transferring important biological signals between cells.
Exosomes are a specific type of extracellular vesicle—smaller, very precise packages within this broader group. They’re known for their highly concentrated cargo of regenerative signals like growth factors, proteins, and genetic instructions (RNA).
Think of extracellular vesicles as the general “delivery vehicles,” and exosomes as specialised “priority couriers”—highly focused, carefully packaged, and specifically designed to repair and regenerate.
At Contour Clinics, we specifically use exosomes for their potency, purity, and exceptional regenerative capability.
