NEW: Autologous Exosomes for Hair Loss
With MCT therapy (Meta Cell Technology), PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is processed using light and heat. This process releases exosomes with enhanced biological activity. These influence cell activity directly at the hair follicle, and thereby support natural hair growth. An efficient, well-tolerated method that is particularly suitable for early hair loss .
Mechanism of Action:
- Revitalisation of "dormant" hair follicles
- Improved microcirculation in the scalp
- Anti-inflammatory effect
- Cell regeneration in the hair root area
At a glance
- Treatment duration: One session lasts about 20 minutes
- Recommended sessions: Usually 3 sessions at intervals of 3-4 weeks each
- Methods: Exosome concentrates are introduced into the scalp, e.g. via microneedling
- Downtime: Gentle on the skin, no downtime
- Suitable for: Hereditary hair loss, thinning hair, weakened hair structure, early hair loss
How Exosomes Work
Exosomes are tiny vesicles produced by virtually all cells, acting as "messengers of vital signals". They are loaded with proteins, lipids, growth factors and nucleic acids, and support cellular functions – in particular the regeneration of hair follicles.
The active substances stimulate hair roots directly and influence the natural hair growth cycle. This not only helps prevent hair loss but also improves hair density, texture and scalp health.
Indications and Benefits
Suitable for:
- Hereditary hair loss
- Hair thinning
- Weakened hair structure
- Scalp revitalisation
Benefits:
- Gentle on the skin
- No downtime
- Natural stimulation of hair growth
- Long-lasting improvement in hair density and health
NEW: Autologous Exosomes for Hair Loss
With "Meta Cell Technology", PRP is processed using light and heat, releasing exosomes with enhanced biological activity. These influence cell activity directly at the hair follicle and support natural hair growth – efficiently, with excellent tolerability, and particularly suitable for early hair loss .
Mechanism of Action
- Revitalisation of "dormant" hair follicles
- Improved microcirculation in the scalp
- Anti-inflammatory effect
- Cell regeneration in the hair root area

Treatment Protocol for Hair Loss
Each session lasts approximately 20 minutes. Typically, 3 sessions are required at intervals of 3–4 weeks, although this varies from patient to patient.
Exosome concentrates are delivered precisely into the scalp, for example via microneedling . Most patients notice improvements in hair quality and density after just a few sessions.
Combination with PRP and Autologous Blood
Combination with PRP has proven particularly effective. Autologous plasma is processed and enriched with growth factors. Alternating between the two methods approximately every 3–4 weeks is ideal.
Frequently asked questions
How Do Exosomes Influence Hair Growth?
Exosomes are small cellular vesicles that transport important signalling molecules from cell to cell, and are considered key to intact cellular function. They promote cell regeneration in the hair follicle area through the growth factors they carry.
When Is Exosome Therapy Indicated?
The treatment is particularly promising for individuals with fine hair, early-stage hair loss, or those seeking preventive strengthening of the hair follicles.
What Does the Treatment Process Involve?
Treatment is carried out either on its own or in combination with microneedling, and takes 30–45 minutes. For lasting results, we usually recommend several sessions – the exact number is determined individually.
What Makes the Therapy at Dr. Schuhmann's Practice Special?
A personalised treatment plan is developed based on the patient's wishes and the specific requirements of their hair and scalp, combined with the most effective approaches available.
Is Exosome Therapy Suitable for All Hair Types?
Yes. Unlike laser therapy, exosome therapy is suitable for all hair types – dark, red, fair, and every hair thickness.
What Effect Does Exosome Therapy Have on Scalp Health?
These small cellular agents have anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties – they support hair growth and improve scalp condition, alleviating dryness, dandruff and irritation.
What Are the Costs Associated with Exosome Therapy?
The cost of exosome therapy starts from €550 – varying according to the size of the area treated, individual wishes and hair condition. Combination treatment (3 PRP + 3 exosome sessions alternating): approx. €1,900 every 4 weeks.
When Are MCT Exosomes an Option?
This very latest technology is based on autologous exosomes – considered more effective and better tolerated than plant-derived variants, and particularly suited to early-stage and diffuse hair loss as well as genetically determined alopecia.
How Many Sessions Are Required for MCT Treatment?
We typically recommend a series of three to five treatments at four-week intervals – with an individual recommendation provided following a consultation and hair analysis.
