What Are Exosomes (And Should You Care?)

Let's talk about exosomes, because while they're the latest skincare buzzword, most of what's out there is total junk. The truth? Many of these products are simply freeze-dried fragments, untested and completely useless.

Today, we're breaking down what real exosomes are, what the latest NS300 testing reveals, and how to distinguish between hype and science. If you're investing in your skin, you deserve the truth. Let's get into it.

Well, hello there.

Hello.

Today, we're going to take a deep dive into a significant new buzzword that's gaining traction. The skincare industry is constantly evolving, and with Platinum Skincare, we continually strive to stay at the cutting edge. One of our new lines, the Alqemi line, features an exosome.

Yes.

Today, we will discuss exosomes.

Yeah, and learn what makes it so good.

And what makes Platinum so amazing?

Let's think about it. Whenever there's something new like this, and an exosome isn't new, let's not say that. I mean, they've been working with these for decades, probably for medical use and similar applications, but they're new to us in the skincare arena.

That's right.

And we're right there at the forefront. I don't think many people are aware of exosomes being included in products. I mean, in my research, I've seen a handful of worthy-ish products. You know, so yeah, we have a lot to unpack about them, what makes them so good.

Yeah, and you've been working on this for a long time, even before our launch.

Yes, probably like a year or something that I've been looking into them.

You are definitely ahead of the times when it comes to skincare.

Yes, yes. For what everybody else has, we're hopefully some of the best.

Let's discuss what they're not telling you about exosomes. What makes ours different?

Yes, when you look at this bottle, there is one thing and one thing only in it: one active ingredient, and it is human adipose exosome. And there's one other ingredient, which is actually a very important one, and it's called mannitol. And what mannitol is used for is that it acts as a cryoprotectant, because you can't just take an exosome and leave it out all day long, you know.

It needs to be cold. Therefore, it must be frozen initially. So, we've a more extended period in which to use this product.

Because, if you think about it, if we'd have this straight from the source, let's say they made this product and it was freeze-dried, you'd have such a short time to use it that it's not even applicable. And there are a handful of things out there, I believe nowadays, where maybe you have something and it's fresh. You've six to eight weeks to use that product.

I mean, you think about the logistics of that, you're manufacturing that, and then you're going to send it to somebody to resell it to the customers. What time frame do you have? Let's say you got 120 days. What time frame do you've from when you manufacture it to when it reaches the person who's going to sell it, to when it reaches the final user, and then they've to use it immediately?

True.

So freezing is what's important. You need to be able to freeze it. Now, this is in its frozen state. We keep this cold; we keep them in the deep freeze here. This is now good for two years, frozen.

We don't have to worry about rushing and using it up quickly because it won't spoil. This is now good for a very long time. The difference between ours is that it contains mannitol, right? So, if you find any other product out there, I'm sure there's probably another one; I think I might've seen one other one.

If they're not using a cryoprotectant like we are when it's being processed and turned into this powder, the exosome itself is getting damaged, right? It can break apart. I mean, think about what happens if you fill a balloon with water and then freeze it; it can create shards that can rip and tear things. You're going to destroy that exosome.

Yeah, so you don't want that. Therefore, you must add a cryoprotectant to the mixture. As I mentioned, we've got this covered.

So, when ours is tested and we have them tested, right? There's a NanoSight NS300, which is the machine they use. It's a really intense microscope. They can examine tiny nanoparticles and determine the concentration.

It can see their size, their shape, if it's whole or damaged, you know. Ours are tested with this. So, they go through, and we have a lot of photos on the page here showing you what has been tested.

And it shows, you know, all the markers that it's gone through and what it looked like before it was tested, before all the liquid was removed, and what it looks like after, and what the concentration is.

So we're showing you that this is pure. It is potent. There's nothing wrong with it. It's not damaged. It's like ready to be used.

And you don't have to worry about, you know, particles or little pieces. Like, what do they call that?

No jagged edges, no jagged pieces.

Like washing the exosomes, like that's where they're talking about, where they just have the little broken particles and things. And they're saying, “Oh, we have some in there.” But you know, they really don't.

It's not a functioning, you know, a broken piece of something. It's kind of like saying, you know, a broken piece of this plate is just as effective as this full plate.

Well, it's not. Clearly, you can't use this broken piece. It's not giving you any benefits. It's not helping you to eat your meal, right? You know, you need the whole thing.

So things like that, where some other companies are being a little bit misleading about what their product is, you know, and they're not going to make that well known. Hey, we're doing this. However, that's where we want to differ.

We'd like to share our results from the testing with you. We want to tell you what's in here. You know, there are only two ingredients in here.

Right.

You know, it's the exosomes and the cryoprotectant, which are necessary. Therefore, if you encounter it elsewhere and the cryoprotectant isn't included, it won't be an effective product.

You know, it's super, super important.

That's amazing.

I mean, like I just had to spew all of that because like that's like the major important thing here is like making sure that this product that you have, that is a little bit of an investment, that you want to make sure that it's good and that it's functioning correctly.

That would be really disappointing if you invested time and effort, only to find out that the product is not as superior as you thought it was. However, the good news is that our exosomes do stand the test and exhibit all of those great qualities. So that's amazing.

Yeah. I know that a new study is forthcoming, where researchers are testing various products. Now, they didn't test our product.

I don't think our product was even available in the market when they were doing these tests. I think it's like a Harvard study or something. However, I'm interested in seeing the results of that because I would like to know if these companies use the cryoprotectant. If they don't, I think they will find some pretty negative findings.

Yeah.

With the products tested. But knowing that ours was correctly processed.

Absolutely.

And the team that makes this for us, we're not making this, right? Someone's making this for us. The team that makes this has been in this vicinity, working with exosomes and related technologies for approximately 15 years.

They know what they're doing. They have their patented methods of doing this. I think they have like 10 or 15 patents.

Wow.

…on doing this correctly.

So when you say they've been doing this for 15 years, they were probably doing this for the medical industry.

I would say so. Yeah.

Interesting.

Because, you know, it hasn't been readily available to everyone else now. This is very new. Very, very new.

And let's touch base for just one minute about shipping these to our customers. Yeah. And, you know, we put a lovely big stamp on their order, letting them know that it's okay to be at room temperature for 10 days while it's in transit.

Correct. We have a 10-day window.

That does not compromise anything.

No. And there's actually on the website, there is a study that was done, and it goes from, you know, 45 degrees to this degree, to this degree, to this degree, to this degree, to test for, you know, toxicity and damage and all that kind of stuff. And that wasn't affecting it.

So, if it's cold here and then it warms up a little as it reaches you, that's okay. As soon as you receive it, just put it in your refrigerator. We always try to add on.

First, we're offering you more express methods. We aim to deliver it to you within three to five days. I think sooner is always better. But, you know, we're putting an ice pack in there.

We're packaging it in a cold pack style, specifically the silver cold pack style, which includes an ice pack in the box. We seal it up to keep the contents cold, providing an extra day of transit. In case something crazy happens.

Because it's deep, it's stored in a deep freezer here.

It is. It's like negative.

Yeah, you only have to put it in your refrigerator. You could put it in your freezer.

The fridge is good. And we have the little beauty fridges. Those work fine.

Yeah, absolutely.

Yeah. And even if you make something from it, like, you know, and it's, of course, then it's like a little frozen dried state here. We recommend storing it in the refrigerator, but you can also keep it in your freezer.

I'm not saying it doesn't have to be. However, once you've mixed a liquid into it, whether you're using one of our serums, the PDRN, the EHR, or you're mixing with saline or distilled water, whatever you've chosen to blend with, once you've created a product with that, you should also refrigerate it.

Okay.

That's important.

Now let's talk about why, and you know, these are so trending right now. What does this exosome do to your skin that is above and beyond what a regular skincare serum or something could provide?

Yeah. So, we have a lot of, you know, peptides and things, and they can speak to your cells and tell them what to do. But when you have something that is from the human body, and I know that kind of scares a little bit of people, and they're like, “I don't want somebody's fat on me.”

There's nobody's fat in here. This is not fat in here. This is an exosome. This is a messenger. This is a messenger for your cells. It's not somebody's fat. It's not anything like that.

But think of this exosome that they've taken out of those cells as a sergeant in an army, right? You know, the sergeant tells those cells what to do. And its key factor is to tell your cells to heal.

It's to tell your cells to, you know, stimulate collagen. It's particularly beneficial for skin texture and anti-aging, and it's highly effective. So, something like this is fantastic; obviously, you want to really hone in on it, right? You want to use microinfusion to penetrate deeply into your skin and then allow it to communicate with your cells.

Right.

And the reason there are so many in here, like there's 11 billion in this bottle.

Okay.

The reason there are so many is that one of them is busy instructing this guy on what to do. And one of them's busy telling this guy what to do. And one of them's busy telling this guy what to do.

Yeah.

They tend to prefer talking one-on-one with themselves. So the higher count that you're able to put on your skin and get into your skin, the more activity you're going to, you know, take care of at once.

And once he tells this guy what to do, when he starts on his journey, well, he can move on to the next one and tell him what to do. But, you know, 11 billion, that's a lot. That's a lot of sergeants telling yourselves what to do.

So, yeah, that's the big thing, obviously, anti-aging, collagen, and healing. So, you know, even using this after a chemical peel. Or a lot of times you'll find it in like, you know, medical spas and things like that.

They like to use it after something, maybe like a CO2 laser, something that's, you know, really damaging to the skin. Someone is going to be irritated or uncomfortable. Their skin's not happy. Putting something like that on with its healing properties. It's a really, really good option.

That's amazing because, like, you know, we all know anytime you do a peel or, you know, the CO2 lasers, you're literally damaging that top layer of skin on purpose. Burning it intensely. And we're doing that, you know, to stimulate that collagen. This is just a bonus.

Yeah.

Now it's not only stimulating collagen, but it's literally in there, bossing these cells around, telling them, ' You do this, you do that. '

Get busy.

Right, right. It's an action-packed sort of scenario where you're getting, you know, like the best of both worlds there.

Yeah. It's amazing. Like I said, I can't be more excited about this. However, I think it's truly amazing. I love the PDRN as well. And I like those together. I want to combine the PDRN with the exosomes and use them as a serum together, as they both work so well.

Yes, we have many clients who have purchased all three. Additionally, we offer a 'buy more, save more' discount on this particular line. And they, you know, they'll phone and they'll say, you know, which one is the best for this? And like, as we're talking about each one, a lot of times they decide they want all three, you know, and they're doing a little bit of the EHR and a little, you know, with the whole vial of the EXO-AD, and then they're dropping in some, a little bit of PDRN. Now, if they have leftovers when needed, what do they do with the serum?

So here are some rules. So, whatever we've poured, let's say. Let me just take one of these out. Let's take a tool out. All right. Let's just take the needle head, and I'll just show you the tool.

Let's just make this simple. Here's the tool. It's all in here. Here's the tool, and here's your needle head. This is obviously disposable every time you do treatment.

In your tool, I recommend filling this up about halfway. There's no need to really fill it up all the way. I don't think you'll use all that, but it really depends on how many times you plan on applying it to your face. If you go over once, you won't need to fill it all the way up. If you're going over, say, three times or four times, however aggressively you want to be, then you might use more. I suggest half.

Now let's say you filled it up all the way, and you needed your face, and you still have half left. What this tool is good for, I would say, is to use it within the next 72 hours, because you're done with the needling. You want to put a little bit more on, let that penetrate while you've got those holes open in your skin, right? All those micro channels.

After you're finished, put a nice layer of it.

About 15 minutes before those holes close back up again. So, when you're done, if your face isn't wet with the solution, you'll want to add some more. Let's get it in there, right? And then, you know, later on in the day, maybe, you know, before you go to bed, now you're going to wash your face. Go ahead and add a little more in the morning. You can also mix it into your serum. Please use up the contents of this tool within 72 hours.

Keep it in the refrigerator in between.

Keep it in the refrigerator. But let's say you just mixed some up, and you mix it with there, and you put your little dropper tip on here, and none of this has been in the tool.

Okay, so this product that you just mixed up is good for six months. You just want to use a little bit of this every day. It hasn't, not that this has even touched your skin, but just the sheer fact that it was in the tool. We want to use it within 72 hours.

If we just mixed it up in this vial, it's suitable for six months. And if it's just as I said, sitting in this cold or frozen state, it's ideal for two years. So it's not like you're wasting anything. You can always use the tools provided. You can mix up more.

So if you mixed up this bottle and you decided to pour it in a half tool, I'll use that part within three days and what's left over here, you can seal that up and use it, you know, six months from now, if you want to, or next month when you do your needling or two weeks, it's good.

We have many clients who are not undergoing needling, but they are purchasing the PDRN and the AD, and using them as a daily barrier repair.

Barrier repair, rosacea

Post-peel.

Post-peel, yes. Anything like that, even on a daily basis, I would say it's fine. I use it every day too, but it's best to be cautious with it. You must consider factors such as molecular size and what substances will penetrate your skin. Some of these are a little larger. The best use of these is to needle them.

Yeah.

And I do want to mention, too, you know, you don't have to purchase our needling system, our micro-infusion system.

If you have, you know, uh, yeah, yeah. Dr. Penn. There are numerous brands available. Some people prefer to use rollers.

Our serums can be used with any tool you have. We're not trying to; that's why they're separate. That's the whole point of creating these serums: making them separate allows you to use them with your existing tool. And if you don't own a tool, then by all means, please try ours. However, you can use it with anything.

Yeah. Excellent. And I have spoken to so many customers that, you know, maybe I already had a derma roller or possibly already had a Penn, and, yeah, they would say, 'Hey, can I use?' Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Go for it.

Absolutely. These were designed for injection into the skin. You know, take that as you will. If you're injecting it into the skin with all those baby needles, that's precisely what these were meant for.

Now, is there any way to diagnose something like this, assuming the everyday person doesn't have access to a microscope, such as the excellent NS3000?

300. Yes. NS300.

NS300. So, the everyday person doesn't have a microscope. So, how would we know? How are we going to know?

Currently, you must rely on your manufacturer or brand that's selling the product. So, you know, when you go to our website, it is just so important to me personally to give you all of the information I possibly humanly can, whether it's on the ingredients, what this ingredient is known to do, does, what the function is or how it was created, where it came from, who makes it. I'm going to tell you whatever I can say to you.

The same applies to this. When you visit our page, you'll see precisely how this was processed. Here are the photos of what the NS300 spat out. You can see that it's showing this is before it was cryogenically frozen. This is after it was cryogenically frozen, both before and after.

All right. It's perfect. You know, there's not a problem with this. And, you know, that's important. And I think a lot of places you go, they're not going to show you that.

Right.

And if they're not going to show you that, and if you reach out to them and they're not willing to tell you about it, how it's tested, or anything else, I would probably go the other way.

Because that would be a red flag.

That's a red flag.

That's a red flag if they can't tell you that this is the gold standard for testing in this particular area.

That is used for exosomes and drugs, like the different things, like when they're, you know, manufacturing drugs to go into buy, how far they penetrate, make sure that everything is whole and proper before, you know, it's being used in the real world.

The same thing here, like exosomes as a primary function of this particular microscope to prove the concentrations and sizes, and if it's whole or broken apart, and all those kinds of things.

There's, I don't think there's a, I think there's a handful of other tools that can do that. I don't know their names offhand. This is just the most popular one, but there are a couple of different tools available. Someone could say, 'Oh, well, we use this tool to do that.' Okay, fine. You know, that could be just fine as well.

Are there any other red flags that we can look for in packaging or marketing that could also indicate that the product may not be as superior as one that was tested appropriately?

What are you thinking? I'm thinking you had something in mind.

No, but like, okay, just to compare it, you know, to something else we sell, like a chemical peel. Okay. Like ours, our peels are certified, and the free acid value is what we are telling you is in there.

Free acid value, the pH level, and the percentage.

Right. So, you know, those are key things, pH levels, like things like that, that we look for as consumers when we're purchasing chemical peels, right? So, I'm obviously looking to see if they're tested appropriately and checking for the buzzwords in the ingredients, such as whether there are any tricky ways they can describe it as a blend or something similar.

Well, there was that washing.

…some manufacturers use peels and similar products.

Yeah. Yeah. Like we say, like when we talk about a compound of something, a compound, there's nothing wrong with a compound. But if you're basing your percentage on a compound.

It's a percentage of that compound. It's not a percentage of a single ingredient, like retinoids. That's where that gets really messed up out there.

I think many people aren't even showing you a percentage or a part per billion, or anything like that. I've seen a lot of information out there, and after looking around, I couldn't find any information, not even a reference or hint, on their page or website about the amount of exosome in their product.

That's a red flag to me. If you're not telling me, okay, you may not have 11 billion parts in there. I don't care if you have a million. I think you should be telling me so I can at least compare apples to apples or apples to grapefruits.

Absolutely.

This one has 11 billion and is priced accordingly, and this one has 1 million and is priced accordingly. I think I'm going to go with this one. It takes a little bit of adding up and thinking, 'Well, I can just add this to my product, and I can create my product from this. I can, this is far more powerful.’

I feel that with such a scientific product, the scientific nature of it demands that we know exactly these criteria.

Yeah. It's not just a lovely cream that moisturizes and hydrates your skin. No, I mean, we're claiming that it's a specific active, you know, so you need to know what this active is, just kind of like our potion line, you know, there's a percentage of that active in there, and we're going to tell you what it is. That's the same with this.

Okay. When someone starts a series of microinfusions, let's say, microinfusions, correct. How long before they're going to see results? You know, everybody wants, we're an instant world here. We thrive on instant gratification. However, we know things take time.

However, beauty is not that.

That's right.

It's not that. So, I see people who like needles, and the next day they're like, ' Oh my gosh, my skin is so beautiful. ' It's like, okay, it is. And that's generally because there's a little bit of localized swelling, you know, and we've, we've put thousands of needle holes in your face, and it's inflamed a little bit.

And so, yeah, your pores are going to look more refined, or wrinkles might look a little bit less, but now give that another week or so, when your skin is calmed down and looks normal again, you're like, ‘Well, you know, it doesn't look as good as it did.’

Well, that's because nothing's happened yet. You see, I always try everything, and I don't care if it's just using a topical product or something like a series of peels or micro infusions. You have to give it 90 days. When collagen and elastin begin to form in your skin, you can't see it.

I don't care if you did the strongest TCA peel that's real; you're going to see surface refining, but you won't see the actual changes for at least 90 days, where all of these new tissues that are way down below the skin are now working their way up and growing and working their way up and growing and work.

And then, by the time you've done two more, three more, who knows how many more, it's just going to start compounding, right? So, I'm always, no matter what it is, about 90 days. I don't care if you're starting to use a topical retinoid or if you're, you know, starting a series of microinfusions, but you've got to give it time, and you can do this fairly often. It really depends. I see some recommending two weeks, and you can do it every two weeks.

If you want like one light.

Yeah. If you're not particularly sensitive or aggressive, because there are some people whose skin is like steel. You know, they could probably review this several times and be fine. So, you've to learn your own skin's tolerance, but you can do this as often as every two weeks.

Never more than that. And I want to say the reason is that when you do this for the first time, that's when you have peak collagen formation. And then it peaks again on like day 14 or 15. I can't remember which it is.

So the last thing you want to do is interrupt that when you know it's going to be like doing another last, last-ditch boost of collagen production. You don't want to sit there and beat it down again, real quick. Let it do its thing.

Now your two weeks are done. Okay. Now you can start again. So you had that nice boost. Now you're going to get another boost. Just don't ever push it more than two weeks. Like, I know people get excited. They want to do it every week, and my skin feels fine. I know your skin feels fine. It looks fine, but it's not.

Things are still happening down there, and you don't want ever to move forward before your skin is ready. That's when you end up with negative things moving forward. Overly aggressive individuals often develop a reputation that is perceived as negative.

And, obviously, we want you to do a series of these, just as you would with a series of peels. You'll get the best results when you're consistent.

Yes. People often ask me this question. It's like, well, should I do needling and then a peel, and then I'm like, ‘Well, you can whatever works for you.’

Do you think any benefits to alternating the two?

I've always thought it's good to like, keep your skin guessing. To be honest. You know, if you're doing the same thing all the time, your skin might become a little accustomed to it. Not that, not that that's going to stop things, but I think when you throw something else in the mix, I was like, whoa, what was that?

You know, that's like back to attention again. And so there's nothing wrong with doing needling this time and a peeling this time or needling, needling, a peel, needling, needling, a peel, come up with whatever groove you like and then do that. Always make sure, as with anything, that you are following the recommendations of the thing you did last, right?

So, if you've done this needling and you know you're going to do another one in two weeks, you decide, 'Well, I'm not going to do needling this week, I'm going to do a TCA peel.’

Yeah. Okay. Well, you do your TCA peel, and now you get a 30-day wait time. That doesn't mean you can do another one of those in two weeks. You must wait 30 days, and then you can proceed with your needling.

You know, so you can do needling, needling, peel, needling, needling, peel, you know, whatever works for you.

Whatever works. One exciting aspect of this line is that it is suitable for both expecting mothers and nursing mothers, as there are no restrictions on its use, unlike those associated with chemical peels.

No, that's very true. Like, you kind of have to stay away from salicylic. You have to stay away from Jessners and TCA. You know, you've got a handful that you can use with this, which is very accurate.

We often encounter pregnant mothers and similar situations. Maybe they can't use their retinoids because they're pregnant. They can't do this.

Well, you don't have to prep so much to do this. I mean, it's great if you're on a good regimen. Of course, we want you on a good regimen, your skin turning over and healing, but anybody could do this at any time.

And that's amazing.

That's awesome.

They're so limited. And a lot of times, you know, they're using the stronger acids and retinoids and things like that. And they're, you know, they're pretty worried because your hormones start going through a lot of changes. And sometimes your skin is beautiful when you're expecting. And sometimes it's not.

Yes.

So you never know what you're going to get. So this is excellent news.

Yeah, that was a really good thought. Yes, I received several calls over the last month regarding that. And I was always excited when they asked me, and I could give them some good news.

You can do this.

You can do this. And they get so excited.

Yeah, something significant. You know, because this is major. It's a considerable treatment. Like, I can't do my peels.

Same thing with summertime. Okay, so right now, it's summertime. It was 90 degrees the other day. Often, people prefer not to sweat and undergo peels. You don't want to cause that skin to come up too quickly. You can do this.

Right. And your downtime will be significantly reduced with something like this. Often, there is no downtime at all.

No, I don't generally have any downtime when I do this. You could be a little bit dry. Potentially, you may experience some flaky skin. I don't typically.

Yes, I'm more sensitive, and I didn't have any downtime.

Nothing.

I do recommend the lidocaine before.

I am a believer of lidocaine before strong peels, before. And just like, okay, a little hint. We have that big one, which is like a four-ounce or six-ounce tube. I can't remember what it is.

I think it's six.

Yeah. And obviously, there are no instructions on there for use because lidocaine at that percentage is only approved for hemorrhoid use, right? However, it can be used for a variety of purposes.

Sure.

And that lidocaine numbs very well. I suggest a couple of little tips: apply it very thickly, like you wouldn't rub it in like some face cream. Use a lot of it and try it out. Like you want to see it when you're done applying it. You want to see like the white on your face.

You want it to be thick, and then let it sit for a good 15 to 20 minutes. And if you want to be even more numb, go further. It's fine. It's fine.

And then, when you're done, we obviously don't want to get any numbing cream on your skin. So, it's super important. I suggest you take a washcloth and wipe it off your face as much as you can.

Then get your soap out. You know, like one of our face washes is excellent with the acid in there. Wash twice or use an antibacterial soap; whichever you prefer for preparation, use your alcohol.

And then go ahead and needle. However, we don't want any lidocaine or prilocaine on your skin, regardless of the type of blend you have. Ensure it's completely removed. That's very important.

Right.

But boy, does it help.

It does.

And I go like really close because I like to go like, you know, you want to get your crow's feet and stuff. You want to stay a little bit away, but I'll apply the numbing cream.

Oh yeah, for sure.

And especially above the lip, because this is really sensitive. I like to sew under here and here. Super sensitive. I think anybody could probably do their forehead, but it's like.

I always start on the forehead and then work my way down.

And just work your way down. Yes, that's what I do. And, of course, we have the tutorial video, so if anyone has a question about how to mix these serums and combine them, or how to fill your tool, a very important thing to note is how to prime your tool.

Absolutely.

And you know what? I want to, I'm going to open this.

Sure.

Because I want to show… Let's see if I can do this without my glasses on and still see clearly. I want to show people that when you're priming your tool, you should fill it up, flip it upside down, and let the liquid fill in for a couple of minutes while you're busy washing your face.

Now there's this little button on here, right? And if you can, you can take a look at this. I probably can't show you this, but inside, there's a little plate. It's almost like a stick with a plate on the top, and all the solution is above it.

When we press that button, it lifts, allowing all the serum to flow down, and then it pushes back down again. So when you press that button, every time you press the button on your skin, new serum keeps flowing in.

So you really want to prime it. Your hands are clean; just prime it and press that button. I mean, this doesn't hurt my finger at all.

I used a pair of tweezers and followed the same process as I did with mine, then tested it on my hand until I saw some liquid coming out.

When you see that liquid coming out, now you're ready to go. And I'd like to share one more little tip. Like, you know, as you're going across here, it's really good when you're either getting to the lower side or underneath, gravity's working against us, and it's not going to come out. Sometimes, you might need to flip it and do that again quickly to get the liquid up there.

Or I find that usually there's enough liquid. I just smear the liquid and then go over it. Don't worry about it. Or, for some reason, you get a little vacuum in there. When you're upside down, simply open it.

The plunger is going up and down, creating a vacuum as you apply the tool. Therefore, ensure it's nice and flush against your skin, allowing the little knob to depress. And if you're doing it properly, that little plate is going to go up and down. So, it may create a slight suction or vacuum, as you said.

So, if you don't have liquid coming out, as happened to me, I was about three-quarters down my face, and then I flipped the bottle over and untwisted it. Immediately, I saw a bubble. So I said, 'Oh, it was; I had formed a vacuum in there.'

There it goes. There it goes.

And then I was off to the races again and finished the rest.

And then you finish, and there's really no need to tighten this; it doesn't have to be like…

Oh no.

Just don't do that. That's too much. You almost want to allow a little bit of air to get in there. You don't want to create that vacuum. It's possible that you closed it too tightly. I just wanted to provide a couple of little hints to ensure people understand how this works.

But yeah, absolutely.

Therefore, suction can occur, or a slight vacuum can form. But for the most part, as long as you have that flush in your prime, you shouldn't have any issues.

Yes.

Yeah.

There’s a little tip on using that, then?

Absolutely. Now, what else can we discuss about these exosomes? Are there any details that we are missing that our customers should be aware of? And is there anything we should reiterate here?

No, you know, obviously the biggest thing is these are tested, right?

The industry standard tests these. They have a cryogenic protectant in here. These are whole exosomes. There's nothing else in here except the exosome and the cryoprotectant, which is only at 5%, meaning that 95% of this is exosome.

And, oh, that did lead me to one more thing. Just looking at the white. This is all stuck together. I want to talk about this. We had a couple of questions.

Yes.

This is all stuck here and frozen, but there are plenty of instances and numerous bottles where particles may have broken off, leaving a little bit here and there in chunks. That is okay. That is okay. It is somewhat frozen and glued together, but it can still break apart.

And if you want to, you can, for instance, use a chopstick or something similar to clean the tooth. Rub some alcohol on there and go ahead and, you know, you can gently break this apart a little bit. For example, let's say you want to incorporate some of this into one of your products and mix it with another, or you don't want to create an 11 billion-count product today. You only want to make, you know, 6 billion.

So you're going to pour like half of it and needle with that, and then leave the rest of this in here. That's okay.

And I just wanted to say that, however, if this is in pieces, if it's solid powder floating around, or if it's all together, it's all fine. I just wanted to make sure that everybody realizes it doesn't matter. I'm not sure, but I like it.

Yeah. The one question I get is…

Ah, see now. This one’s different.

Ah, there you go. Here we go. Perfect example.

This is the perfect example. This one has broken apart a little bit from being shaken around, and this one is still stuck. They're both perfectly fine. There's nothing wrong with it being in pieces. There's nothing wrong if it's stuck together.

Yes.

It's all good.

We have had that question. Another question I often get is, 'Well, how do I get my powder into my tool?' Well, you know, I explained, well, the best way to do it, if you're going to use the entire vial, pour your liquid into that.

This is big.

Yeah.

This is much larger for mixing purposes. You can pour your entire PDRN serum in here and still have room to spare. And sometimes you have to let it sit for a few minutes, and sometimes you might have to let it sit for 10 or 15 minutes, especially if it's like a little firmer like this, to get it all to dissolve, or just keep shaking it.

At some point, I'll stick a toothpick or something in there, and then it'll all meld into one, and you'll be fine. But yes, you're right. Mix it in here. It would be very difficult to pour a powder into there.

Yeah. Right. They were afraid they would lose some of it. And I said, ‘Yeah, if you're going to do a needling treatment, you know, for the most part, we recommend using the entire vial.’ So you would pour, you know, maybe a quarter of your, let's say you're going to do all three, a quarter of your EHR and then, you know, shake, shake, shake, shake, and then, you know, pour that into your tool and then drop in your PDRN or your epidermal growth factor. If like you're going to add some Regenerate or one of our potions.

Oh, yeah. Some of the potions. Let me just say, if you're filling your tool, let's say you've got your exosomes and your nice little blend there. We don't ever want to fill the tool with these potions. You know what I mean? That's no.

But you can, you know, these come with a little dropper. You can enhance it. Add, like, a drop, maybe two drops, to your exciting concoction. You're going to needle into your face and, you know, choose one for its benefits.

And all of the potions are fine to use with this. Regenerate's fine. Nanohyaluronic is fine. Also, the same applies to copper. If you have the 7% or the CP serum, those are the gentle coppers. You could add a drop there.

You know, we already have GHK and the PDRN, so it's not necessary. But you could add a little copper in there, too. I just want to say, don't add Supercop 2X or anything like that. The gentle coppers.

I was just thinking how amazing it would be to add the Synake and do your forehead like the Botox alternative.

Botox alternative, absolutely. Or the Adipofill'In, like something, you know, around there, or the SKINectura. There are so many good things.

Absolutely.

So, well, and that's what Replexium is in the EHR, which is the EHR serum that comes with the main kit. That one also has, like Replexium, it's almost like adding one of these ingredients. Replexium is for collagen stimulation. SynTC is for collagen stimulation. There are a lot of those. You know, you could add a little drop if you'd like. That's just another cool benefit.

So, yes, there are many things you can do with this line. And the exosomes, I think, shine. And if I were to tell somebody, I would almost want them to mix the exosome with whatever other one you choose.

I just think it's just such a standout product. And you know it's safe. You know it's functional. You know we do it right here, so yeah.

However, if they are on a budget and want to jump into needle or microinfusion, they can opt for the suite, as it has everything they need to get started. You can always add one of these in the future or both as required.

Absolutely.

Because there are six treatments in the suite. Six tools. Six needleheads. Six vials of the EHR. A great starting point if you're looking to dive into the microinfusion pool, so to speak, right?

Yes. As I mentioned, we have another serum that will be arriving in the next couple of months. We have another one for pigmentation that we'll be adding to our thing, so I'm excited for that.

To recap, if it hasn't been tested, it's likely not as superior as our Platinum Skin Care exosomes, correct?

Probably not.

Okay.

Probably not.

And they would let you know. They would want to shout it from the rooftops if it were tested.

Like we are.

Because that is the gold standard. And we're proud of this product line. We just want everyone to be nice and educated, and to know precisely what they're getting.

Yeah. Yeah. So, if wherever you're looking isn't screaming it and showing you pictures and going crazy about it, you know, maybe it's not that great.

If you still have questions, which you may, because there's a lot here. A lot to kind of digest.

Yeah.
