What are Exosomes and how do they function in the skin?

The science of beauty is evolving rapidly — and Exosomes are at the center of this revolution. They are a groundbreaking cell communication technology that is changing the way we think about skin care.

What are Exosomes?

Exosomes are tiny nanoparticles, naturally produced by our body's own cells.
They act as “messengers” that carry valuable molecules — such as proteins, RNA, and growth factors — from cell to cell. In this way, they help cells communicate and renew, repairing any damage and stimulating the natural regeneration process.

How they work on the skin

When incorporated into cosmetic formulas, exosomes:

1. They activate cellular renewal, sending signals to “tired” cells to rejuvenate.

2. They enhance the synthesis of collagen and elastin, providing firm and elastic skin.

3. They reduce inflammation and irritation, contributing to a calmer, more even skin tone.

4. They accelerate healing, helping the skin recover from environmental stress or damage.

Exosomes technology at Althea

Althea Athens utilizes specialized Exosomes Blends, designed to mimic natural cell communication.
Combined with Genolift®, Matrixyl Morphomics® and natural extracts such as Centella Asiatica and Helichrysum, Exosomes enhance the synergistic action of all active ingredients.
The result is skin that is visibly more vibrant, resilient and youthful — from its source, the cell.

Why they are considered the future of skincare

Exosomes don't just "cover up" the signs of aging, they retrain cells to function like they did when they were younger. They are the first technology that addresses aging from the inside out, activating the skin's own biology.
