An Exosome Regenerative Complex Plus Microneedling Promotes Hair Growth in Subjects With Self-Perceived Thinning Hair

Thinning hair affects the quality of life of affected men and women but has limited treatment options. A novel technology refines exosomes from stem cells to create a concentrated complex that is quickly absorbed into the scalp to deliver growth factors, peptides, coenzymes, minerals, amino acids, and vitamins (Exosome Regenerative Complex+®. BENEV, Inc.; Mission Viejo, CA). This study assessed the efficacy and safety of the Exosome Regenerative Complex applied following microneedling on the scalp of subjects with self-perceived thinning hair. Enrolled subjects were male (n=15) and female (n=15) with a mean (SD) age of 50.2 (10.9) years (range, 26-65 years). Subjects were treated on days 0, 30, 60, and 90, with a final assessment on day 120. Trichoscopy assessments showed this treatment significantly increased terminal and vellus hair counts (P<0.0001) and decreased hair shedding on day 120 (P<0.01), increased mean follicular units per cm² (P<0.0001), and decreased inter-follicular distance (P<0.0001). On day 120, the investigator rating for improved hair quality was 97% and improved hair growth was 83%. Subject satisfaction with treatment results was high with no reported adverse events. The combined use of an Exosome Regenerative Complex combined with RF microneedling appears to be an effective and well-tolerated treatment for hair loss in men and women.
