Exosomes
Exosomes are a powerful, next-generation way to rejuvenate your skin, refine texture, and support collagen production. By combining medical microneedling with exosome therapy, this medically-backed treatment enhances your skin’s natural repair process at a cellular level, leading to visibly smoother, clearer, and more radiant skin. At Harley Street Dermal, we focus on using exosome therapy to enhance your skin using your body’s own biological repair mechanisms, not artificial shortcuts.
What Is Exosome Microneedling and How Does It Work?
Exosome microneedling is a minimally invasive, regenerative skin treatment that combines medical-grade microneedling with DP Exo-Skin™, an advanced exosome glide developed by Dermapen.
EXO-SKIN™ is derived from ethically sourced human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), considered one of the youngest and most biologically active sources of exosomes. These exosomes are cell-free and non-living, acting instead as powerful signalling molecules that help guide skin regeneration, cellular repair, and collagen production leading to smoother skin texture, improved firmness, more even skin tone, and stronger overall skin quality over time.
The formulation utilises patented HLA-G COMPLEXA™ technology, which is designed to be immune-tolerant and to support skin repair while minimising inflammation. This makes it particularly suitable for regenerative skin treatments where healing quality and skin resilience are key.
During treatment, DP Exo-Skin™ is first applied to the skin, and microneedling is then performed over it. The ultra-fine needles create controlled microscopic channels, allowing the exosomes to be delivered into the skin where they can actively support and guide the body’s natural repair processes.
For optimal results, we typically recommend a course of 3–6 treatments, spaced approximately 4 weeks apart, depending on your skin concerns and goals. To maintain and build on your results, a top-up session every 3–6 months is advised. This helps keep the skin in an active state of regeneration, prolonging the improvements achieved during your initial treatment course.
Why Consider Having Exosomes Treatment?
- Exosome microneedling is ideal for anyone looking to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and achieve a healthier, more radiant complexion.
- It is particularly effective for targeting pigmentation, sun damage, early signs of ageing, and dull or compromised skin by enhancing cellular repair and regeneration.
- Exosome microneedling can be safely used on delicate areas, such as under the eyes or around the mouth, due to its regenerative and inflammation-reducing properties.
- By incorporating exosomes with microneedling, results are enhanced beyond microneedling alone, with improved healing, stronger collagen stimulation, and more consistent long-term skin quality improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if exosomes microneedling is right for me?
Exosomes Microneedling is suitable for most skin types and concerns, especially if you’re struggling with acne scarring, pigmentation, enlarged pores, early signs of ageing, or overall dullness. If you prefer a regenerative, minimally-invasive approach with minimal downtime and proven results, then exosomes microneedling is an excellent choice to consider. Our doctors will always conduct a full consultation to ensure that you are suitable for treatment and can explore potential alternative solutions if you aren’t.
Will the results look natural?
Yes. Exosomes Microneedling enhances your skin’s own regenerative ability, meaning the improvements develop gradually and naturally over time. You won’t look “done” or artificially altered, just refreshed, smoother, and more luminous. Because it works with your body’s biology, the result is healthier, stronger skin, not an over-corrected appearance.
Is the treatment painful?
Most patients find Exosomes microneedling very tolerable. A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to ensure comfort. You may feel a light scratching or vibration but discomfort is usually minimal and brief.
What should I expect on the day?
Your doctor would usually welcome you and start with a detailed consultation. This would include discussing any previous treatments you’ve had, what your understanding of the treatment is and exploring your goals and expectations. They will also discuss the nature of the exosomes microneedling procedure and related risks. If you are agreeable, the doctor will then usually conduct the treatment by first taking a pre-treatment photo and then applying topical anaesthetic while you complete the necessary medical and consent forms. After the treatment is complete, the doctor will then explain any relevant aftercare and offer you information on how to contact them for questions or any follow-up you might require. Our doctors are always contactable directly for any clinical queries by email. You may also be offered supplementary treatments, such as medical-grade skincare creams which could further enhance the effects of the treatment.
What should I expect afterwards?
Redness and sensitivity are common for 24–48 hours. Some clients may experience light flaking, dryness, or tightness in the days that follow as the skin regenerates. By day 3–5, most people see noticeable glow and smoother skin texture. You can resume normal skincare within a few days, and full collagen stimulation continues for up to 6 weeks post-treatment.
Are there any precautions I should take beforehand or afterwards?
Before treatment, avoid active skincare ingredients (like retinoids or acids), tanning, and waxing for 5–7 days. Afterwards, avoid hot environments (steam rooms, saunas, strenuous workouts), exfoliation, and direct sun exposure for 48–72 hours. SPF must be worn daily to protect your new skin. A gentle, hydrating routine will be advised to maximise your results and prevent irritation.
Is there any follow-up after the procedure?
Exosomes Microneedling often requires successive treatments for the best results. If you’re undergoing a course of treatments, we’ll monitor your progress at each visit and adjust your plan as needed. You’re welcome to check in with us virtually or in clinic to discuss your skin’s response or if there are any concerns.
