Exosome therapy at GLIF Medical is a regenerative treatment offered by Dr Peguy Télusma, MD, in Montreal, to improve skin firmness, texture, and radiance.
How the treatment works
Exosomes are small vesicles used in regenerative medicine to support the skin’s natural renewal processes. Applied as part of a medical aesthetics treatment, they aim to improve skin firmness, texture, and radiance. This treatment can be offered on its own or combined with other skin-regeneration treatments, depending on the plan established during the consultation. Regenerative medicine, of which this treatment is a part, relies on biological mechanisms meant to support the skin’s own renewal capacity, rather than on a filling product or a surgical intervention. The treatment belongs to the same family of care as microneedling and the Bela MD medical Hydrafacial, with which it can be combined depending on the plan set during the consultation. Depending on the plan chosen, application may be done on its own or right after a microneedling session, a combination often used in regenerative medicine to support product penetration.
Who it’s for
This treatment suits adults looking to improve their overall skin quality through a regenerative approach, particularly those seeking more firmness, better texture, and a brighter complexion. A prior medical evaluation confirms whether this treatment fits your goals and skin type, on its own or alongside another treatment.
- Dull skin or skin lacking firmness
- Looking for a regenerative approach to complement other treatments
- Long-term maintenance of skin quality
This initial consultation includes a review of your medical history, a skin examination, and a discussion of realistic expectations for this type of regenerative treatment. At this stage, the physician also determines whether the treatment is offered on its own or combined with another skin-regeneration treatment.
What to expect and recovery
The session lasts about 30 minutes. The treatment is generally well tolerated, with little to no downtime: a return to regular activities is possible immediately after the session. The price is variable and confirmed during the consultation, based on the treatment plan chosen and on whether it is combined with another regenerative treatment.
Expected results
Improvement in skin firmness, texture, and radiance develops gradually over the weeks following treatment. Results vary from person to person depending on skin type and the treatment plan followed, with no result guaranteed.
As with most skin-regeneration treatments, a plan of several sessions is sometimes proposed for a cumulative effect, and occasional maintenance sessions may be considered based on the progress observed and your long-term goals.
No result is guaranteed with this treatment: the vesicles used are meant to support a biological process already present in the skin, not to produce a uniform, predictable effect for every patient.
