Exosomes and Scalp Injections: The 411
If you’ve found this blog on scalp injections with exosomes in L.A., you’re likely currently researching non-surgical hair restoration options. And you’re not alone. Exosomes for hair loss — or, more accurately, exosomes for hair growth — is a non-invasive, data-backed option gaining popularity among hair loss experts. It’s a treatment that requires relatively little discomfort and down time, and it is significantly more affordable when compared to surgical options like hair transplants.
To learn more about scalp exosomes in Los Angeles, as well as the basics of exosomes in general, read on!
But Firstly, What are Exosomes?
Exosomes are nutrient-rich cells derived from human stem cells. They contain a potent mix of proteins, lipids, amino acids, and growth factors. They arrive frozen from sterile, medical grade labs and are thawed once they reach your doctor’s office or med spa. Exosomes are clear in color and retain either a liquid or gel-like consistency, depending on the brand and intended use.
Exosomes are considered the “gold standard” in terms of their restorative and regenerative properties as they originate from placenta cells.
Are Exosomes for the Scalp Different From PRP for the Scalp?
Yes! PRP, or platelet rich plasma, is derived from the patient’s own blood … which means it’s quality is limited by the health and age of the patient. PRP from a 40-year-old is drastically less potent than, for example, PRP from an 18 year old.
Exosomes, however, offer a consistent and high level of growth factors for each and every patient and typically contain over 300 more growth factors per dose when compared to PRP.
What’s the Difference Between Scalp Injections with Exosomes and Scalp Microneedling with Exosomes?
Great question! Scalp injections entail injecting a high concentration of exosomes via about 10 different injection sites on the scalp. Meanwhile, microneedling with exosomes for hair loss entails applying exosomes topically directly after a microneedling session on the scalp.
Both methods are effective and your provider will walk you through which is the best option for you based on your specific needs.

Can Women Get Scalp Injections for Hair Loss?
Absolutely. Both men and women can benefit from scalp injections with exosomes or scalp microneedling with exosomes.
Do Exosomes Injections Hurt?
Both scalp injections and scalp microneedling are extremely tolerable, and your provider will first numb the treatment area with a topical numbing cream for about 30 minutes prior to treatment. You may experience some scalp sensitivity for the first 24 hours after your appointment.
How Many Sessions will I Need?
Number of sessions may vary per person, but clinical data suggests four sessions once a month for a total of four months for optimal results.
