We tested for you... Exosomes for Hair Growth

We've found the cure for seasonal hair loss. Voted "game-changers" in the world of beauty, exosomes are a little revolution straight out of K-Beauty. But what are their benefits and, above all, why will they change your hair routine? We tested See My Cosmetics' exosome hair care product for you, and tell you all about it!

What are exosomes?

It's Korea's beauty secret and a real revolution in skin (and hair) care. Acne, eczema, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, scars, stretch marks and hair loss... Exosomes have a powerful action to treat the most common problems. Science and regenerative medicine have been using them since the 90s to boost or regulate the immune system in the fight against certain autoimmune diseases and cancers. But what exactly is it? 

Exosomes are a resource naturally present in the body, like messengers produced by cells to communicate with each other. They are tiny nano vesicles (between 30 and 150 nm in size) created by the cell's plasma membrane and containing lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and secondary metabolites. In short, they are there to alert tired cells when it's time to activate regeneration. In France, in aesthetic medicine, it's exosomes of plant origin that are attracting particular attention, as they deliver all the efficacy and vitality of plants to the skin. 

What are their benefits? 

Exosomes are of great interest to the aesthetics community because of their 360° action in reducing the inflammation responsible for ageing, but that's not all! They helperase fine lines and wrinkles, scars, age spots and stretch marks, tighten pores, lift features, repair and redensify the dermis, purify and revitalize the skin. They also play an essential role in the production of collagen and elastin, and in cell regeneration. They are true game-changers in aesthetic medicine, as they improve skin health.  

 

The effects on hair are numerous. Exosomes can : 

  • Purify and soothe the scalp 

  • Moisturize and nourish the scalp 

  • Reduce hair loss and stimulate hair growth

  • Promote a healthy hair growth cycle

  • Increase volume at the hairline

  • Make hair softer, shinier and fuller

While exosome skincare products are slowly gaining ground in France, See My Cosmetics has focused on the power of exosomes for hair health. The beauty salon known for its Korean Liftunveiled two exosome (plant-based) treatments to target scalp health: ExoScalp Care, a 50-minute treatment to regenerate, soothe and deeply moisturize the scalp, and Hydra ExoScalp, a 1H15 treatment to improve overall scalp health. 

As with Korean LiftExoScalp treatments use Airbrush technology and a stimulating brush applicator to stimulate microcirculation and diffuse the contents of an Active Fill Up ampoule onto the scalp. The Active Fill Up ampoule contains numerous active plant ingredients, caffeine, amino acids, 12 plant extracts and two types of exosomes:

  • Probiotic exosomes, derived from lactic acid , to help maintain a healthy environment for scalp microbiota, improve scalp hydration and increase hair volume at the roots. 

  • Ginseng stem cell exosomes: rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, recognized for their anti-aging and antioxidant properties.

Elsa, our Editorial Manager, has tested Hydra ExoScalp for you and tells you all about this complete hair care product. 

SeeMyCosmetics Hydra ExoScalp benefits

Whether it's hair loss, lack of volume, itching or dandruff, Hydra ExoScalp has been designed as a purifying and regenerating treatment for scalp and hair from the roots upwards. Hydra ExoScalp uses Keravive Hydrafacial technology to deeply cleanse the scalp, before misting on an ampoule enriched with exosome stem cells using a stimulating brush. The treatment also incorporates LED technology and a stimulating massage. 

The protocol created by See My Cosmetics boosts blood microcirculation to prevent hair loss and boost hair growth, volume and shine, reduce redness, regulate sebum and eliminate dandruff, while revitalizing and strengthening roots and scalp.

Our opinion on Hydra ExoScalp and exosomes for hair growth

"My hair has always been a (real) problem for me: I often have a dry, itchy scalp, dull, dry hair that sometimes lacks volume, tends to fall out and really doesn't grow quickly. I'd heard a lot about the power of exosomes and couldn't wait to find out more about this little beauty revolution. What's certain is that, in addition to treating the scalp - a key step in hair care that we tend to skimp on - the treatment offers a purely relaxing moment (after all, is there anything more soothing than a scalp massage?) As soon as the treatment is over, the effects are visible on the volume of my hair. A few days after the treatment, I can feel that my scalp has been purified - it hasn't itched once, the volume at the roots is still there and my hair is shinier. On the growth side, however, there's no surprise! You'll have to wait a little longer to notice a real difference." - Elsa, editorial manager.
