Exosomes, when combined with Sylfirm X Microneedling technology, introduce a wide variety of benefits for hair growth. The exosomes are the key ingredient, which signal hair cells to repair themselves. Sylfirm X Microneedling is the helper, which creates microscopic holes in the scalp for the exosomes to penetrate into. This non-surgical method tackles all the problems associated with hair loss: baldness, slow growth, and thin hair which breaks apart easily. Patients see improvements in their hair within a few months after repeated treatment.
What Exactly do Exosomes do for Hair?
Exosomes are small vesicles, or containers, which are secreted out by a cell in order to communicate with other cells. Exosomes can be thought of as vehicles, bringing cellular information from one cell to another. In terms of hair loss, exosomes can signal old, worn-out hair cells to transition back into their growth phase.
Additionally, hair exosomes signal stem cells—which don’t have any specific function—to specialize into new hair cells.
In medical studies, hair exosomes resulted in a huge variety of benefits for people with hair loss. These benefits include the generation of new hair cells, which are healthy, alive and ready to grow. The scalp produced more beta-catenin proteins, which helped to renew hair cells. Existing hair cells grew larger as well. This treatment also resulted in the hair follicle (which holds hair strands in the scalp) growing thicker, which meant that hair was less likely to fall out.
The hair has various phases of growth: the growth phase (anagen), the regression phase (catagen) and the inactive phase (telogen). Exosomes encourage inactive hair cells to transition into the growth phase. Exosomes also keep hair cells within the growth phase for a longer period of time.
This Treatment can Target Male Pattern Baldness
The hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone) helps the male body develop male sexual characteristics during fetal development and puberty. However, as the male body ages, DHT can cause male pattern baldness. Hair exosomes target DHT at the hair follicle, reducing the thinning of hair follicles.
How does Sylfirm X Microneedling Help Out?
Sylfirm X Microneedling is more commonly used to treat wrinkles, scarring and other imperfections in the skin. However, in this hair loss treatment, it is used on the scalp to enhance the effects of exosomes on hair growth.
Sylfirm X Microneedling is different from conventional microneedling because it uses radiofrequency technology, which brings the benefits of microneedling into deeper layers of the skin. As a result, exosomes can penetrate deep into the scalp and promote hair growth.

Sylfirm X Microneedling also increases collagen growth in the scalp, making the hair follicles healthier. This is another way this treatment tackles hair loss.
