Regenerative exosome therapy · EXO-GROW · Battersea SW11
Hair loss is exhausting. EXO-GROW works at the root.
Exosomes are tiny vesicles cells use to signal to one another. EXO-GROW is applied to the scalp alongside Dr Pen M8s microneedling, as part of a clinician-led protocol.

What we can honestly say.
EXO-GROW is a cosmetic scalp system, not an MHRA-approved medicine and not a substitute for medical treatment. We do not compare it with hair loss medicines, because a comparison like that needs independent controlled trials, and we have not seen them.
Individual results vary. We assess the cause of your hair loss first, and refer you to a GP or dermatologist where that is the right route. Where thyroid or hormone levels could be part of the picture, a private blood test can be taken in clinic and shared with your GP.
We understand
You have tried the shampoos. You deserve more than the surface.
Watching the hairline creep back. Catching the scalp in the mirror under bright light. The drawer of tonics and shampoos that only ever sat on top of the problem. It is draining, and it is personal. EXO-GROW is a different approach: a cosmetic scalp protocol applied in clinic, not another product left on the surface at home. Whether it is hereditary thinning, stress or hormonal shedding, or tension from years of tight styling, we start by listening, then plan from there.
How it works
Three reasons EXO-GROW reaches where others cannot.
01 · The messengers
Your cells' own signals.
Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles that cells use to talk to one another. EXO-GROW carries around 3,000 growth factors and proteins, applied to the scalp as part of the protocol.
02 · Delivered deep
Through the micro-channels.
In clinic, MG-EXO-GROW is driven through fresh micro-channels with Dr Pen M8s microneedling, so the actives reach the scalp instead of sitting on the surface.
03 · Built to last
A patented immune-tolerant exosome.
EXO-GROW uses IT-HLA-G-EXO, designed to slip past immune detection so it keeps working with regular use rather than being cleared away.
EXO-GROW is a non-prescription cosmetic system, not a medical hair-loss treatment. We make no comparison with any medicine, and individual results vary.

What these reviews show, and where they stop: a 2026 systematic review found only 8 small studies (3 to 60 people each) combining microneedling with exosomes, across hair thinning, skin ageing, pigmentation, scarring and pores, and concluded that more evidence is needed before their safety and effectiveness can be confirmed. A 2025 systematic review of 11 clinical studies of exosomes for hair loss, mostly from stem-cell sources, reported gains in hair density and thickness with no serious side effects, but the studies were small, varied in design and short in follow-up. Neither review tested EXO-GROW itself. EXO-GROW is cosmetic, not an MHRA-approved medicine, it may support scalp and hair quality, individual results vary, and outcomes are not guaranteed.

Exosome hair restoration · EXO-GROW · Battersea
Start at the follicle.
Start with a conversation.
A consultation and scalp assessment, with honest answers about what EXO-GROW can and cannot do. The sooner you support the follicle, the more there is to work with.
Skin of Colour, from the scalp out
Hair loss in darker skin, understood.
Some patterns of hair loss are seen more often in Black and mixed heritage patients, and they deserve a clinic that recognises them rather than treats every scalp the same. Traction alopecia from tension styling, central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), and postpartum shedding are common reasons people come to us from across South London. EXO-GROW is a cosmetic scalp quality system, not a medical treatment for these conditions, so our first job is an honest scalp assessment. Where the follicle can still be supported, EXO-GROW aims to support the look, density appearance and condition of hair and scalp. Where a condition needs medical or dermatological care, we say so.
Bespoke, not one size
Afro-textured, coily and relaxed hair are assessed on their own terms. Your protocol, styling history and scalp are reviewed before anything is planned.
Honest about limits
Cosmetic scalp support, framed honestly. Scarring conditions like CCCA can be permanent, so early assessment matters and we refer when medical care is the right step.

Common questions
Questions we actually get asked
Is exosome therapy suitable for afro-textured hair and Skin of Colour?
Yes. EXO-GROW is used across all hair types, including afro-textured, coily and relaxed hair, and Skin of Colour is central to how we work. We assess your scalp and styling history first, because patterns like traction alopecia are common with tension styling. EXO-GROW is cosmetic scalp quality support rather than a medical treatment, delivered through Dr Pen M8s microneedling, and we are honest at consultation about what it can and cannot do. We see patients from across South London. Individual results vary.
Can EXO-GROW help with traction alopecia or CCCA?
We do not present EXO-GROW as a medical treatment for traction alopecia or central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA). These are conditions seen more often in darker skin, and CCCA in particular is a scarring alopecia where early medical assessment matters. Where the follicle can still be supported, EXO-GROW aims to support the look and condition of hair and scalp as a cosmetic system. Where a condition needs dermatological or medical care, we tell you honestly and point you in the right direction. Individual results vary.
What is EXO-GROW, and how is it delivered in clinic?
EXO-GROW is an exosome-based hair and scalp range from Dp Dermaceuticals. In clinic we use MG-EXO-GROW, a meso-glide solution delivered through Dr Pen M8s microneedling, so the formulation can pass through fresh micro-channels in the scalp. It is designed to support the look and condition of hair and scalp. It is a cosmetic treatment, not a medical hair-loss treatment, and individual results vary.
What makes the EXO-GROW exosomes different?
EXO-GROW uses a patented immune-tolerant exosome, IT-HLA-G-EXO (HLA-G COMPLEXA), designed to avoid immune detection so it aims to stay effective with regular use. The formulation carries around three thousand growth factors and proteins in nano-sized particles intended for scalp absorption, alongside ingredients such as Polygonum Multiflorum, Sophora Japonica, CICA exosomes from Centella Asiatica and Ceramide ComplexA. Not all exosomes are the same, and this is positioned as cosmetic support.
Does exosome therapy regrow hair?
We do not promise hair regrowth and we make no comparison with any medicine. EXO-GROW is a cosmetic system that aims to support the look, density appearance and condition of hair and scalp. Exosome therapy is an emerging modality and not an MHRA-approved medicine, so we frame it as scalp-quality support rather than a medical hair-loss treatment. Individual results vary and are not guaranteed.
Is there a homecare range I can use at home?
Yes. The EXO-GROW homecare range includes an EXO-GROW Shampoo and Conditioner, an EXO-GROW Hair Tonic, an EXO-GROW Scalp Mask and an EXO-GROW Lash and Brow Serum. These are designed to support the look and condition of hair, scalp, lashes and brows between in-clinic sessions. They are cosmetic products and results vary.
Where can I read the clinical evidence for exosomes?
Two peer-reviewed reviews we cite: a 2026 systematic review of microneedling with exosomes in dermatology (Dhaliwal and colleagues, Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, PubMed 42027180), which found only 8 small studies and called for more evidence, and a 2025 systematic review of clinical studies of exosomes for hair loss (Al Ameer and colleagues, Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, PubMed 40955427), which found the evidence promising but limited by small, varied studies. Neither tested EXO-GROW itself. This page is general information, not a substitute for a consultation.
Who delivers exosome therapy at Melatone in Battersea?
Exosome therapy is delivered as MG-EXO-GROW through Dr Pen M8s microneedling by Arman Zaki, our founder and GMC-registered Physician Associate (Ref A8131967). Every plan is led by Arman at consultation, with a scalp assessment and an honest conversation about what exosome therapy can and cannot do.
What is exosome therapy?
Exosomes are tiny vesicles that cells use to pass signalling molecules to one another. In exosome therapy a formulation containing them is delivered into the scalp or skin, at Melatone through fresh micro-channels made by Dr Pen M8s microneedling, to support the look and condition of hair and skin. The evidence is early-stage and promising rather than established, and we treat it as such.
How much does exosome therapy cost?
EXO-GROW exosome microneedling for thinning hair is £299 a session. How many sessions you need, and any skin-quality plan, depends on what we find at your scalp or skin assessment, so we confirm the full plan and its cost before you book a course. Message us on WhatsApp if you have questions first.
How long does exosome hair therapy take to show results, and how long does it last?
Hair works in cycles, so any change is judged over months, not weeks, usually across a course with the homecare range in between. Because the evidence is early-stage, we do not promise a timeline or a duration; we photograph at baseline, review, and tell you honestly what we see.
