What is an exosome therapy consultation
An exosome therapy consultation is a one on one appointment with a qualified practitioner to review concerns involving skin quality, scalp changes or general lack of radiance. The consultation explores whether laboratory prepared exosome products may be appropriate to discuss based on your skin type, health history and goals.
These products contain purified exosomes created in controlled laboratory settings. In cosmetic practice, they are applied to support the surface environment of the skin or scalp. They are not used to change facial structure or provide medical treatment.
A consultation does not mean treatment will be recommended. Your practitioner will discuss whether alternative pathways or supportive skincare are more suitable.
What areas does it address?
During the consultation, your practitioner may assess areas that commonly show visible texture changes or early loss of surface vitality, such as:
• Face
• Neck
• Chest
• Hands
• Scalp
They will check which areas may be appropriate to discuss based on safety considerations and your individual presentation.
Who may be suitable for an exosome therapy consultation
A consultation may be helpful if you have noticed:
• Dull looking skin
• Early crepey texture
• Reduced surface bounce
• General changes in skin quality
• Early scalp concerns such as reduced density
Suitability depends on your medical history, medication use, allergies, recent procedures and your goals. This is confirmed during your appointment.
What happens during the consultation or procedure
During your consultation, your practitioner may:
• Review your medical and treatment history
• Examine your skin or scalp
• Explain in general terms how laboratory prepared exosome products are created
• Discuss realistic expectations
• Outline general risks and aftercare principles
• Explore supportive or alternative options
Specific treatment details cannot be listed here to comply with Australian advertising regulations. These can be discussed privately during consultation if appropriate for you.
If treatment is discussed for a later appointment, your practitioner will explain what to expect based on your skin type, the delivery method chosen and safety requirements.
Downtime and aftercare
There is no downtime from the consultation alone.
If treatment is completed at a separate appointment, some people may notice temporary responses such as:
• Redness
• Mild warmth
• Pinpoint marks
• Temporary sensitivity
Your practitioner will provide personalised instructions, including when to avoid heat, exercise, active skincare or sun exposure while the area settles.
Surgical or non-surgical?
Exosome based cosmetic treatments are non surgical.
There are no incisions or stitches but may be combined with skin needling.
Who can perform a NCTF Thearpy Consultation
Consultations and related procedures must be completed by trained practitioners working within their professional scope. This may include:
• Doctors
• Nurses
• Dermal therapists trained in the safe use of topical or device assisted delivery methods

Is a consultation required
Yes. A consultation is essential to confirm:
• That your concerns are suitable for discussion
• That no contraindications are present
• That expectations are realistic
• That your medical history supports safe treatment planning
Any new or changing skin lesions should be reviewed by a GP or skin cancer doctor before cosmetic care.
Risks and considerations
Your practitioner will discuss risks based on your individual circumstances. General possibilities may include:
• Redness
• Swelling
• Bruising
• Temporary sensitivity
• Discomfort
• Rare allergic response
Your practitioner will explain how to minimise risks and when to seek medical review.
Frequently asked questions
Are exosomes the same as PRP treatments
No. PRP uses your own blood. Laboratory prepared exosomes are created outside the body and are applied to support the surface environment in a different way.
How many exosome therapy sessions will I need
This varies. Your practitioner will outline a general plan during consultation if this approach is suitable for your concerns.
When might I notice changes after exosome therapy
Responses vary between individuals. Some people feel their skin looks or feels different in the weeks after treatment as the area settles.
Can exosome therapy be combined with other treatments
Sometimes. Your practitioner will guide you on safe combinations and appropriate timing based on your medical history and skin type.
Is exosome therapy suitable for all skin types
Many skin types may be considered, but suitability depends on your medical history, recent procedures and the delivery method used. A consultation is required to confirm this.
